Scissor Hoist Hydraulic Cylinders (HHT Series)
A scissor hoist cylinder mounts horizontally between the trailer chassis and a scissor linkage, converting a short stroke into a large body lift. HCIC's HHT series offers two bores — 127 mm (5.00 in) with 262 kN (58,905 lbf) of thrust and 152.4 mm (6.00 in) with 377.3 kN (84,823 lbf) — at 20.7 MPa (3000 PSI), with strokes of 400 mm (15.75 in), 508 mm (20 in) and 546.1 mm (21.5 in).
127 mm (5.00 in) bore
Three models — HHT501575, HHT502000 and HHT502150 — sharing 262 kN (58,905 lbf) thrust with weights from 30.0 kg (66.1 lb) to 43.9 kg (96.8 lb).

152.4 mm (6.00 in) bore
Two models — HHT601575 and HHT602150 — raising thrust to 377.3 kN (84,823 lbf) for heavier bodies on the same strokes.

Catalog notes
- The printed catalog lists a 127 mm (5.00 in) bore for HHT602150; its 84,823 lbf (377.3 kN) rating at 20.7 MPa (3000 PSI) corresponds to a 152.4 mm (6.00 in) bore. This page shows 6.00 in, corrected per the thrust figure, pending factory confirmation. ↩
Frequently asked questions
Which HCIC cylinder replaces a dump trailer scissor hoist cylinder?
The HHT series covers the common scissor-hoist sizes: 127 mm (5.00 in) and 152.4 mm (6.00 in) bores with strokes of 400–546.1 mm (15.75–21.5 in). Match your bore, stroke and closed length to the table on this page; if the closed length differs, send your measured dimensions and HCIC will confirm fitment.
How much force does an HHT scissor hoist cylinder produce?
The 127 mm (5.00 in) bore produces 262 kN (58,905 lbf) and the 152.4 mm (6.00 in) bore produces 377.3 kN (84,823 lbf), both at 20.7 MPa (3000 PSI).
What strokes are available in the HHT series?
Three strokes: 400 mm (15.75 in), 508 mm (20 in) and 546.1 mm (21.5 in). Closed lengths range from 596.9 mm (23.5 in) to 746.1 mm (29 3/8 in) depending on stroke.
