Hydraulic cylinders are used for several applications and can be found in practically anything that needs to be raised, lowered, lifted, bent, or pressed. That includes construction equipment, hydraulic presses, automotive lifts, and automotive and materials handling equipment. When using hydraulic cylinders on a consistent basis, we know that equipment failures happen. That’s why Metro Hydraulic is here to help when something goes wrong.
