Raymond Hydraulic Cylinder Mounting Bracket – E-6968

Steel construction carries the reaction forces a hydraulic cylinder generates, and this Raymond bracket holds the cylinder to the mast or frame structure at its mounting point so hydraulic force transmits through the intended geometry rather than loading a loose or misaligned joint. It fits Raymond electric reach and counterbalance lift trucks, securing the cylinder in its correct position and orientation.

As a structural mounting bracket rather than the cylinder itself, its role is purely to locate and support. It keeps the cylinder square to its working line, preventing the stress concentration and premature wear that follow when a bracket flexes or fatigues at its mounting points. Built to hold that alignment through repeated lift and lower cycles, it renews a mount point that can elongate or crack after years under load.

Raymond's reach and counterbalance lineup uses different bracket geometries across its various cylinder mounting locations, so confirm the mounting hole pattern and cylinder position against the bracket coming off before installing, since a bracket cut for a different location will not hold the cylinder square.
