Hydraulic Cylinder Flat Jack Plain Ram

HYDRAULIC CYLINDER FLAT JACK PLAIN RAM is a type of hydraulic jack designed for use in situations where space is limited but where lifting power is still required. Unlike pancake jacks, which often have a threaded ram for fine adjustments, a flat jack with a plain ram typically provides lifting without incremental adjustment.

Here’s a comprehensive look at the specifications and features of a hydraulic cylinder flat jack with a plain ram:

Hydraulic Cylinder Flat Jack with Plain Ram Specifications1. General Specifications
