STANDARD CYLINDER EXTRA POWER CYLINDER +7 KG (15 LB) This is what we started with in Europe. When your machine has around 300 bars of pressure, the normal main cylinder is the safest choice.

Max. pressure: 320 bar // 4640 psi Recommended pressure: 280-320 bar // 4060-4640 psi Flow: 80-150 l/min // 21-39 gal/min Max. pressure: 250 bar // 3625 psi Recommended pressure: 220-250...

It’s a combination between TMK 200’s speed and TMK 300’s robustness, optimal for replacing a regular timber grapple with ease and cutting down max. 250 mm trees easily moving them around with the 165 degree tilting motion of the Hanging Tilt. You can also pair it with our Hydraulic Extension to gain up to 3,6 meters of extra reach with your excavator. TMK 250’s recommended hydraulic pressure is between 180-320 bars depending on the chosen cylinder
