Cylinder Force Calculator
Calculate the push and pull force of a hydraulic cylinder from bore diameter, rod diameter and operating pressure, in metric or imperial units.
Hydraulic Cylinder Force
Calculate the extend and retract forces of a hydraulic cylinder based on its bore, rod diameter and system pressure.
Push (Extend)
164.93 kN
≈ 16.82 tonnes-force
Pull (Retract)
131.53 kN
≈ 13.41 tonnes-force
Theoretical only — excludes seal friction & efficiency losses (typically 5–10%).
