30mmIn light commercial vehicles (3.5-ton to 7.5-ton GVW class) such as municipal utility tippers, landscaping dump trucks, and agricultural trailers, every kilogram of hydraulic equipment tare weight directly reduces the vehicle's legal payload capacity.
Traditional low-pressure underbody hoists (operating at 140 to 160 bar) require thick-walled, large-diameter steel barrels that add 60 to 80 kg of deadweight to the chassis while demanding oversized hydraulic reservoirs.
The 5TG-E105x1872 5-Stage 1872mm Stroke 200-Bar Underbody Tipping Cylinder for Light Commercial Trucks breaks this weight penalty by elevating working hydraulic pressure to 200 bar (20.0 MPa / 2,900 psi). By utilizing higher operating pressure, the cylinder achieves an impressive 6 to 12 metric ton tipping capacity using a compact 105 mm base diameter barrel and a net dry weight of only 38 kg (83.8 lbs).

Because force equals pressure multiplied by effective piston area, operating at 200 bar enables smaller sleeve diameters across all 5 stages. The 5TG-E105x1872 5-Stage 1872mm Stroke 200-Bar Underbody Tipping Cylinder for Light Commercial Trucks displaces only 10.1 liters of hydraulic fluid at full 1,872 mm extension. Body builders can install a compact 15-to-18 liter side-mounted fluid reservoir instead of bulky 35-liter tanks, freeing up critical chassis space for toolboxes, battery packs, or spare tires.
On light commercial trucks with extended rear overhangs, the underbody tipping hoist must be mounted near the chassis midpoint to achieve adequate initial breakout force. A short 1,200 mm cylinder cannot provide enough elevation to reach a steep 50-degree dump angle. The 5TG-E105x1872 5-Stage 1872mm Stroke 200-Bar Underbody Tipping Cylinder for Light Commercial Trucks provides 1,872 mm of continuous extension from a 557 mm collapsed height, guaranteeing clean aggregate slide-off without tailboard hang-ups.

The 5TG-E105x1872 5-Stage 1872mm Stroke 200-Bar Underbody Tipping Cylinder for Light Commercial Trucks is engineered for round-the-clock reliability under harsh municipal operating conditions:
St52-3 High-Yield Seamless Alloy Tubing: Cold-drawn and precision honed to an internal surface finish of Ra ≤ 0.2 μm, reducing friction and extending seal life.
Micro-Cracked Hard Chrome Plating: Every moving stage features a dense chrome electroplate layer of at least 25 μm, resisting road salt corrosion and flying stone abrasion.
Severe-Duty U-Cup Seal Package: Engineered with low-friction polyurethane rod seals and NBR wiper rings rated for extreme thermal extremes from -40°C to +100°C.
To ensure seamless installation on commercial chassis:
Trunnion Cradle Parallelism: Verify that subframe trunnion mounting brackets are aligned within 0.5 degrees of parallelism to prevent bending moments on the base tube.
System Relief Valve Calibration: Ensure the power unit or PTO pump relief valve is set between 190 and 200 bar to utilize the cylinder's full tipping rating without exceeding rated pressure limits.
Hydraulic Port Orientation: The base cap can be specified with standard G 1/2 or G 3/8 BSPP ports, M18/M22 metric threads, or NPT 1/2 ports to match regional fitting standards.
