Flat hydraulic cylinders BETEX NSLS, low height, spring return

BETEX NSLS series represents a line of precision-engineered hydraulic cylinders, characterized by low-profile construction and spring-return mechanism. These single-acting cylinders are specifically designed for applications where space constraints are critical, yet high load capacity and reliable force delivery are still required.

NSLS 50	NSLS 300	NSLS 1000

This product line covers a broad capacity range from 5 to 150 tons, making it suitable for a wide spectrum of industrial applications. The cylinders feature a short stroke of 6 to 17 mm, aligning with their low-profile design. They are engineered to operate under a maximum working pressure of 700 bar (10,000 psi), ensuring both durability and applicability in high-demand tasks.

A key feature of the BETEX NSLS cylinders is the hardened chrome-plated piston, which enhances strength and wear resistance. The piston rods are roller-burnished to achieve a smooth and precise surface finish, while the exterior is sandblasted and coated with a nitride layer to further improve durability and surface protection.

This finishing method not only ensures smooth operation but also enhances resistance to corrosion and external damage.

• Low-profile design
• Spring-return mechanism
• Single-acting cylinder
• Capacity range: 5 to 150 tons
• Stroke length: 6 to 17 mm
• Maximum working pressure: 700 bar (10,000 psi)
• Hardened piston for high durability
• Internal ram surface roller-burnished for smooth performance
• External black nitride coating for corrosion protection
• Compact “pancake” cylinder configuration
• Multiple models available for various tasks and dimensions

These cylinders are also referred to as “pancake cylinders” due to their compact, low-profile design. This self-contained structure makes them particularly valuable in confined spaces where traditional hydraulic cylinders cannot fit.

This product line includes multiple models, each differing in load capacity, stroke length, oil volume, closed height, extended height, and overall weight. For example, the NSLS50 model provides a 5-ton capacity with a 6 mm stroke, while the NSLS1500 model is capable of handling 150 tons with a 17 mm stroke. The weight range extends from 1,000 g to 26,300 g, reflecting the series’ broad diversity in size and performance characteristics.
