"Selecting End Cap Hydraulic Supply Port Locations"

The purpose of this configurator screen is to identify the “Head End” (Front End Cap) and "Cap End" (Rear End Cap) side locations that require hydraulic supply ports. A hydraulic supply port may be located on any one, two, three or four of the four sides of the square end cover of the cylinder that is not resticted by the cylinder mount. When selecting the port location, one must always view the cylinder through the front of the “Head End” (also referred to as the "Rod End") even when selecting the port location on the "Cap End". The illustrations below provide an explanation on how to view the cylinder for making the port location(s) decision.

When selecting Port Locations for Double Rod End Cylinders, please contact Peninsular.
