Steel Depth Control Stops For Hydraulic Cylinders
“Hydraulic cylinder depth control stop blocks have been around for a long time, but most of them are made from aluminum. The problem is that aluminum blocks are soft and can become mangled and deformed after use, especially when used with today’s high-powered tractors. Our new steel stop blocks hold up much better and last longer,” says Roger Kuntz. “We use precision laser-cut technology to make them.”
  The hexagon-shaped steel stops come in 2 pieces that pull apart using a high strength coil spring that’s welded onto one side. To install, pull the 2 pieces apart and snap them onto the cylinder shaft.
  Two kits are available. One is designed for cylinder shaft diameters of 1 to 1 1/2 in. and comes with 5 blocks in 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 3/4, and 1-in. thicknesses. The other kit is designed for shaft diameters of 1 1/2 to 2-in. and has 5 blocks 1/2, 3/4, 1, 1 1/2, and 2-in. thick. Each kit sells for $75 plus $10 S&H.
  Kuntz also offers a magnetic storage tower to store the blocks. It’s an 8-in. high pvc tube mounted on a magnetic base that holds up to 6 stops. “The storage tower helps keep your stops in one place and can easily be moved to another piece of equipment,” says Kuntz.
  The storage tower sells for $15 plus $10 S&H.
