No. 1 in the world for hydraulic lift components production Developed for indirect actinglifts, jack type 1008 is nor- mally used in 2 to 10 storey buildings.A large range of diameters isavailable to meet any load requirement. The 1008 jack is also suitable for heavy load installations or elevators with big cars requiring twin jacks. To facilitate transportationand installation in the shaft, this jack can be supplied in 2 - 3 pieces with a threaded joint.Jack type 1008 SL is avail-able for diameters 60 to 110 and for a piston stroke up to 12 meters.The new technology appliedto this SL jack type achieves a considerable reduction of the cylinder diameter, result- ing in the employment of a lower quantity of oil and decrease of the lift elasticity. A new design of cylinder joint equipped with collar, allows a quicker installation of the jack. >
