what makes it better than the surpluscenter ones?
The Bailey 250:
Bore: 1 1/2"
Stroke: 8"
Rod Diameter: 3/4"
Retracted Length: 15"
Column Load: Full PSI
Port Size: 3/8" NPTF
Pin Diameter: 3/4"
Cross Tube Length - Rod End: 1 1/2"
Cross Tube Length - Base End: 2 1/8"
PSI Rating: 2500
Piston: High grade ductile iron
Tube: Precision honed DOM 1026 material
Rod: Ground and polished chromed C-1045 steel, 75,000 PSI yield
Butt Plate: C-1045 steel
End Mounts: C-1026 steel cross tubes with grease zerk
The surpluss center equivalent ram:
SPECIFICATIONS
Double Acting
Bore/Stroke 1 1/2" x 8"
2,000 PSI max
Rod dia 3/4"
Push/Pull 3,350 / 2,650 lbs
Ports 3/8" NPT
Retracted Length 13 1/2"
Shpg 12 lbs
END MOUNTINGS
Rod End Crosstube
Pin hole 3/4"
1-1/4" cross-tube width
Base End Crosstube
Pin hole 3/4"
2" cross-tube width
The surpluss center ram is 1.5in shorter compressed length that is good.
The Bailey is rated for more pressure 2500PSI, Has greasable fittings at the bolt holes, Piston: High grade ductile iron the Surplus ram is (???),
Tube: Precision honed DOM 1026 material the surplus ram is (???),
Rod: Ground and polished chromed C-1045 steel, 75,000 PSI yield the Surplus ram is (???)
The bailey seams to be an equivalent ram in performance, but looks to be better quality materials and costs a little more.
Ill probibly get the surplus center ram and asve afew bucks, and if it wares our fast Ill get the Bailey 250.
