Applications

Automotive Industry

In automobile engines, piston rods play a vital role in the power generation process. They are part of the engine's reciprocating assembly and are subjected to high - frequency cyclic loading.

Industrial Machinery

Used in various types of hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders in industrial equipment such as presses, cranes, and excavators. In a hydraulic press, the piston rod is used to exert a large force on the workpiece to perform operations like shaping or punching.

Aerospace

Although the requirements in aerospace applications are extremely stringent, piston rods are also used in some aerospace mechanisms where linear motion and force transmission are needed. For example, in certain actuating systems on aircraft, piston rods help in controlling the movement of flaps or landing gear.
