Norco Single-Acting Ram with a 30-ton capacity features a 2-7/16" stroke from 4-5/8" to 7-1/16". Norco's standard rams, made in the USA, comply with ANSI standards and are for use in many applications where lifting, pushing, pulling, bending, or holding may be required, including shop, agricultural, automotive, and truck service needs, as well as construction maintenance applications. The unique ram and cylinder bearings on this unit absorb eccentric load stresses in order to protect the cylinder against abrasion, over-extending, and jamming, but this model does not include a return spring. The nickel-plating on most of the ram pistons inhibits rusting, and the baked-enamel finish on the exterior increases the corrosion-resistance of the unit. Polyurethane seals and wipers provide a high cycle life, and a high-flow, quick-connecting coupler and dust cap are included on all models. Norco charges a limited access fee for shipments to military bases, schools, churchs, and all other gated areas, as well as charging a substantial fee for re-delivery of order, lift gate use, and residential delivery. Also, local sales taxes will be applied to ALL Norco orders shipped to California.
