50255362 Cylinder, Tilt – Jungheinrich ETV Forklift Trucks

Overview

The 50255362 Cylinder, Tilt is a replacement hydraulic tilt cylinder for Jungheinrich forklift and warehouse equipment. The tilt cylinder converts hydraulic pressure into the forward and rearward movement of the mast or attachment, making it one of the hardest-working components in the hydraulic circuit. When seals wear or the rod becomes damaged, operators notice slow tilting, forks drifting under load, or visible oil leaks. Fitting a new 50255362 Cylinder, Tilt restores smooth, controlled tilt action, supports safe load handling, and helps prevent contamination from spreading through the rest of the hydraulic system.

Compatibility

The 50255362 for Anbaugeraet and other Jungheinrich applications is specified for the following equipment groups:

• ETM/V 220 series pedestrian and platform trucks
• ETM/V 320 / 325 series
• ETV 114n / 116n series electric counterbalance trucks
• Anbaugeraet (attachment equipment) configurations
• Sonstige (other) Jungheinrich units where the parts list calls out this number

Before ordering, always verify the number 50255362 against the data plate or the Jungheinrich parts documentation for your specific serial number, as variant differences within a series can affect fitment.

Quality and Reliability

This tilt cylinder is produced to match the dimensions, mounting points, and working parameters of the original Jungheinrich component, so it interfaces directly with existing hoses, pins, and brackets. A hard-chromed rod surface and robust sealing set are designed to withstand continuous hydraulic cycling in demanding warehouse environments. Choosing a correctly specified cylinder protects pump and valve components from unnecessary strain and helps keep unplanned downtime to a minimum in busy material handling operations.

Installation and Maintenance Tips

• Depressurize the hydraulic system and support the mast or attachment securely before removing any lines.
• Tag and plug hydraulic ports to keep dirt out of the circuit during the swap.
• Compare the old and new cylinders for pin diameter, length, and hose routing before fitting.
• Torque fittings to specification, refill with clean hydraulic oil, and bleed air from the circuit.
• After installation, cycle the tilt function slowly several times and check for leaks around the seals and fittings.
• Inspect rod surfaces and seals during routine service intervals to catch wear early.
