DuraGlide Hydraulic Actuators
Made with proprietary materials and processes to minimize friction, and maximize reliability, wear resistance and energy efficiency, these actuators meet the unique precision and dependability requirements of testing. MTS SureCoat® rod finishing technology increases rod service life by 10x over hard chrome-plated rods.
Key Product Features
10x Greater Service Life
SureCoat™ Rod Finishing Technology increases rod service life by 10x over hard chrome-plated rods
Durable / Reliable
Fatigue-rated designs, built to exceed their rated loads for millions of cycles
Energy Efficient
Introduces little friction, reducing internal flow losses and heat produced, thus requires less energy to operate
Unparalleled Performance
Exceptional fidelity over the full range of motion reduces distortion
