Quick acting grips are perfect for pullout testing of grouted re-bar on highway, bridge and tunnel applications.
When used with hydraulic jack, just slip jack and grip over grouted re-bar and apply pressure to desired load (available with hydraulic jack system).
Also grips available for rigging and special applications.

| Flow |
A hydraulic pump produces flow |
Pressure |
Pressure occurs when there is resistance to flow |

| Pascal's Law |
|
|
| Pressure applied at any point upon a confined liquid is transmitted undiminished in all directions (Fig.1). This means that when more than one hydraulic cylinder is being used, each cylinder will lift at its own rate, depending on the force required to move the load at that point (Fig. 2). Cylinders with the lightest load will move first, and cylinders with the heaviest load will move last (Load A), as long as the cylinders have the same capacity. |

Figure 1
|
To have all cylinders operate uniformly so that the load is being lifted at the same rate at each point, either control valves (see Valve section) or Synchronous Lift System components (see Cylinder section) must be added to the system (Load B). |

Figure 2 Synchronous Lift or Control Valves to provide uniform lifting of load.

| Force |
The amount of force a hydraulic cylinder can generate is equal to the hydraulic pressure times the “effective area” of the cylinder (see cylinder selection charts).
|
Example 1
An RC-106 cylinder with 2.24 in2 effective area operating at 8,000 psi will generate what force?
Force = 8,000 psi x 2.24 in2 = 17,920 lbs.
Example 2
An RC-106 cylinder lifting 14,000 lbs will require what pressure?
Pressure = 14,000 lbs ÷ 2.24 in2 = 6,250 psi.
Example 3
An RC-256 cylinder is required to produce a force of 41,000 lbs.
What pressure is required?
Pressure = 41,000 lbs. ÷ 5.15 in2 = 7961 psi.
Example 4
Four RC-308 cylinders are required to produce a force of 180,000 lbs. What pressure is required?
Pressure = 180,000 lbs ÷ (4 x 6.49 in2) = 6933 psi. Remember, since four cylinders are used together, the area for one cylinder must be multiplied by the number of cylinders used.
Example 5
A CLL-2506 cylinder is going to be used with a power source that is capable of 7,500 PSI. What is the theoretical force available from that cylinder?
Porce = 7,500 psi x 56.79 in2 = 425,925 lbs. |

|
| Cylinder Oil |
The volume of oil required for a cylinder (cylinder oil capacity) is equal to the effective area of the cylinder times the stroke*.
* |
Note: these are theoretical examples and do not take into account the compressibility of oil under high pressure. |
|
Example 1
An RC-158 cylinder with 3.14 in2 effective area and an 8 in stroke will require what volume of oil?
Oil Capacity = 3.14 in2 x 8 in = 25.12 in3
Example 2:
An RC-5013 cylinder has an effective area of 11.05 in2 and a stroke of 13.25 in. How much oil will be required?
Oil Capacity = 11.05 in2 x 13.25 in = 146.41 in3
Example 3:
An RC-10010 cylinder has an effective area of 20.63 in2 and a stroke of 10.25 in. How much oil will it require?
Oil Capacity = 20.63 in2 x 10.25 in = 211.46 in3
Example 4:
Four RC-308 cylinders are being used, each with an effective area of 6.49 in2 and stroke of 8.25 in. How much oil will be required?
Oil Capacity = 6.49 in2 x 8.25 in = 53.54 in3 for one cylinder
Multiply by four to obtain the required capacity: 214.17 in3
