Phasing Cylinders

Heavy Duty Phasing Hydraulic Cylinders for Agriculture & Industry

When synchronised movement matters, phasing cylinders deliver precision, reliability, and strength. Designed for applications where multiple cylinders must move in perfect alignment, our phasing hydraulic cylinders eliminate uneven lifting, twisting, and structural stress in heavy machinery.

At Gerrard Hydraulics, we supply heavy duty phasing cylinders engineered for demanding agricultural and industrial environments. Whether you’re operating wide folding implements, heavy earthmoving equipment, or large industrial presses, our phasing cylinder solutions ensure balanced, controlled movement every time.

What is a Phasing Cylinder?

A phasing cylinder is a specialised hydraulic cylinder designed to synchronise two or more cylinders operating in series.

Unlike standard cylinders that may move unevenly due to load differences, phasing hydraulic cylinders incorporate an internal bypass mechanism that automatically re-aligns movement at the end of each stroke.

How Phasing Cylinders Work

• Cylinders are connected in series
  • When fully extended or retracted, an internal bypass port activates
  • Oil flows through a small re-phasing passage
  • Both cylinders automatically reset to the same position

This “self-correcting” action makes phasing hydraulic cylinders essential for wide agricultural equipment and heavy machinery.

If you’re searching for the best phasing hydraulic cylinders for heavy machinery, synchronization and durability are critical — and that’s exactly what our systems deliver.

Agricultural Phasing Cylinders

Agricultural phasing cylinders are the backbone of large-scale farming equipment. Modern implements are wider and heavier than ever before. Without synchronised movement, frames can twist, bend, or fail.

Our phasing hydraulic cylinder range is built specifically for agricultural use.

Common Agricultural Applications

Planters & Seed Drills

Ensure uniform depth across the entire machine width. Phasing cylinders keep both sides lowering evenly for precision planting.

Tillage Equipment

Wide cultivators and disc harrows rely on agricultural phasing cylinders to lift and fold wings evenly during transport.

Air Carts & Variable Depth Systems

Maintain consistent soil penetration and prevent uneven frame loading.

For operators looking for the best phasing hydraulic cylinders for agricultural machinery, synchronisation equals productivity.

Heavy Duty Phasing Cylinders for Industrial & Construction Use

Beyond farming, heavy duty phasing cylinders are used across construction and industrial sectors.

Construction & Earthmoving

• Motor graders – Keep moldboards level
  • Scrapers – Even bowl lifting
  • Pavers – Balanced frame control

Manufacturing & Industrial Machinery

• Multi-post hydraulic presses
  • Scissor lifts
  • Level lifting platforms
  • Material handling gates

If you need the top phasing hydraulic cylinders for industrial use, these applications demand high performance and structural protection.

Why Choose Phasing Hydraulic Cylinders Over Standard Cylinders?

Standard cylinders operating in series can drift out of sync due to rod displacement differences. Phasing cylinders are precisely bore-and-rod matched to ensure equal oil displacement and synchronised movement.

For those searching for the best high-performance phasing hydraulic cylinders, synchronisation accuracy is the defining advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are phasing hydraulic cylinders used for?

They are used when two or more cylinders must move in perfect synchronisation — such as folding planter wings or leveling heavy equipment.

Are phasing cylinders better than standard cylinders?

For synchronized movement, yes. Phasing hydraulic cylinders automatically reset alignment at the end of stroke.

What industries use agricultural phasing cylinders?

Agriculture is the largest user, followed by construction, industrial manufacturing, and heavy machinery sectors.
