Hydraulic Cylinders

We supply an excellent range of precision hydraulic cylinders from 10mm to 250mm bore. We also provide a cylinder refurbishment service. Our range includes:

  • C10 Industrial Cleaners: capabilities of working pressures up to 250 bar and suitable for general applications from precision to heavy engineering.
  • Cepac Marine and Subsea Cylinders: cylinder range capable of working pressures up to 250 bar and ideal for use in harsh environments such in the chemical, nuclear and defence industries.
  • Bespoke C10 and CEPAC Cylinders: Options include telescopic and through rod design, load-holding valves, linear transducers are available.
  • K10 High Pressure Cylinders: using high alloy steels for working pressures of 700 bar and above. Ideal for marine and subsea applications.   
  • Pencyl Stainless Steel Cylinders: designed for use with hydraulic fluids.


TORKO Rotary Actuators

Our TORKO range of semi-rotary actuators is available in steel, stainless steel, and alloy materials. These actuators are designed for use in industrial, marine and subsea industries where specific requirements such as high strength, corrosion resistance and hygiene are essential factors. The TORKO range is available for any degree of rotation and may be fitted with end stroke cushioning. They are available with pneumatic seals or seals designed for use with special fluids. To find out more about our TORKO range please contact the team at Air Power and Hydraulics Ltd, or please visit the website to download our TORKO catalogue.

Hydraulic Power Units

We supply various hydraulic power units for use with various industry applications. We supply standard and customised power units up to 75kW capacity which are designed for use in industrial, marine and subsea applications, APH power units with electrical motor capacities from 1.1kW, and a standard range of hydraulic power units which are suitable for general applications in the engineering and process industries. We are widely regarded for our custom built units as we are for our standard ranges. We can manufacture hydraulic power units to client specifications using both electric or air motors.

Cylinder Refurbishment

Our cylinder refurbishment service provides clients with cost-effective solutions in many cases. All of our refurbished equipment undergoes final assembly and testing procedures. We provide Quality Assured Repair for our own manufactured products but are also pleased to undertake repairs for equipment manufactured by other brands. We provide a first-class, reliable service and work quickly and efficiently. As we receive cylinder repair requests from all around the world we ask for certain information to be provided to enable us to provide the best service. Please visit our website for further details or call us at Air Power Hydraulics Ltd and we will be happy to discuss further.

Hydraulic Cylinders

We are pleased to offer a highly versatile range of 10mm to 250mm bore hydraulic cylinders. Our C10 industrial cylinders with 250 bar maximum working pressures are suitable for general applications from precision engineering to heavy engineering.

We also offer the CEPAC marine and subsea range of cylinders which are designed to operate in even the most hostile of environments. Both the C10 and CEPAC ranges can be manufactured in a telescopic and through-rod design. They can also be supplied with ported rots (diameter permitting), load-holding valves, and linear transducers with cartridged end cap designs. We also offer the K10 cylinder range for pressures up to 700 bar and PENCYL stainless steel cylinders for use with hydraulic fluids. To top it all off, we provide a cylinder refurbishment service using our extensive manufacturing records for a quality-assured repair.

Rotary Actuators

Air Power & Hydraulics Ltd manufacture a wide range of semi-rotary actuators under the TORKO brand. These are available in a choice of steel, stainless steel and alloy materials.

TORKO actuators are typically suited for industrial, marine and subsea applications where strength, corrosion resistance and hygiene are of vital importance. Because of a robust rack and pinion design, our TORKO semi-rotary actuators offer constant torque drive even in conditions where large rotational angles and small dimensions make linkage mechanisms difficult.
