When the job calls for reliable performance, specify PL-2 Series. A 100,000 psi yield strength chrome-plated, case-hardened piston rod. A 125,000 psi yield strength rod-end stud with rolled threads. 100,000 psi yield strength tie rods. With construction like this, it’s no wonder Schrader Bellows PL-2 Series are truly premium quality cylinders. And to make sure every cylinder is premium quality, we subject each and every one — not just batch samples — to tough inspection and performance tests. See the following pages for the inside story on all the features that make PL-2 Series the high performance, long lasting choice for your medium duty hydraulic applications.
