Restore the hydraulic integrity and structural alignment of your breaker with the Merit Premium Replacement Cylinder. As the central component of the Rammer 2577, the cylinder is responsible for guiding the striking piston and containing the high-pressure oil that drives every blow. Manufactured in Turkey to exacting standards, Merit cylinders are engineered to withstand the extreme duty cycles of the 30-ton carrier class.

Why Choose the Merit Cylinder for Rammer 2577?
The Rammer 2577 series is known for its high power-to-weight ratio. The cylinder must be perfectly true to prevent internal friction. Merit cylinders provide:
1. Precision Honed Bore
The internal bore of our cylinder is honed to a mirror-like surface finish. This ensures that the Striking Piston (161015)moves with minimal friction, reducing heat buildup and preventing “piston scuffing” which can lead to expensive internal seizures.
2. Superior Metallurgical Integrity
For a hammer of this size, structural fatigue is the biggest enemy. Merit uses premium forged steel that has undergone specialized stress-relieving and heat-treatment processes. This ensures the cylinder walls can handle high-frequency pressure spikes without developing hairline cracks around the porting areas.
3. Optimized Porting and Sealing
All hydraulic ports and seal grooves are CNC-machined to micron-level accuracy. This ensures that your Seal Kit (162783 / K12577E) seats perfectly, preventing both external oil leaks and internal pressure bypass that results in a loss of impact energy.
Maintenance Tip: When to Inspect or Replace Your Cylinder?
The cylinder is the most expensive part of the power cell. To protect your investment:
- Check for Scoring: During every seal change, inspect the internal walls. If you feel vertical scratches (scoring) with your fingernail, the cylinder may need to be honed or replaced to prevent immediate seal failure.
- Monitor Oil Cleanliness: 90% of cylinder damage is caused by contaminated hydraulic oil. Ensure your carrier’s filters are changed regularly.
- Tighten Tie Rods: Loose tie rods allow the cylinder to “shift” between the front head and back head, which can warp the mounting surfaces. Always check the tension of your Tie Rods (161011).
