GRIP CYLINDER, 2018+ NEW STYLE
Carry Can Replacement Hydraulic Cylinders
Replacement hydraulic cylinders for Carry Can automated cart tippers — grabber arm cylinders, lift cylinders, and accessory cylinders. OEM-equivalent specs for the high-cycle motion that drives the Carry Can's automated pickup function.
What this page covers
Carry Can cylinders handle two main motions: the grabber arm (extends and retracts to grasp the cart) and the lift mechanism (raises the cart up and over the truck cab to dump). Both cylinders cycle every pickup — residential automated routes do 1,000+ pickups per shift, making these cylinders some of the highest-cycle hydraulic components in the waste industry.
PRT stocks Carry Can cylinders with OEM-equivalent dimensions, ratings, and mounting.
How to choose
Identify by Carry Can model and cylinder application (grabber, lift, accessory).
Grabber and lift cylinders are high-cycle wear items — stock a spare and schedule preventive replacement.
