Enerpac CATS53 tilt saddle accessory for RCS20-50 series low-height hydraulic cylinders. Rated for 10,000 psi (700 bar) systems, the saddle provides a pivoting contact surface to accommodate off-center loads and reduce side-loading on the cylinder plunger. Durable steel construction with Enerpac Yellow finish.

The use of a tilt saddle can extend the life of an Enerpac cylinder. Hydraulic cylinders are built to ensure efficient and safe use time after time, but even the toughest cylinders can be damaged by an excessive side load. Side loading can occur even when the load is vertically placed on top of the cylinder, when cylinders are extended too far – (especially long stroke cylinders), or when the saddle on the end of the plunger fails to make sufficient contact with the load. Greater contact can be achieved using Enerpac Tilt Saddles.

• With safety and convenience in mind the new tilt saddles are designed to allow bolting to the cylinder – which means they can be used safely in any orientation without the risk of the saddle dropping off.
• CATS-Tilt Saddles use a nitrocarburization surface treatment for improved corrosion protection, helping to maintain a professional look through their usage life.
