The HP Cylinder SP 49-14 from Aqualon is a high-pressure cylinder component used in Quantum (Techni pumps)
What it is
- A core pressure-bearing cylinder inside a high-pressure (HP) pump
- Part of the intensifier assembly that converts hydraulic power into ultra-high water pressure
- Designed for waterjet cutting machines and similar high-pressure applications
What it does
- Houses the piston/plunger movement that pressurizes water
- Works together with:
- seals (HP seal kits)
- check valves
- hydraulic drive components
- Enables generation of extreme pressures (often up to 4000–6000 bar / 60k–90k PSI) typical in waterjet systems
Key characteristics
- High-strength, precision-machined metal construction
- Built to withstand continuous cyclic high pressure
- Designed for exact fit and compatibility with specific pump models (SP series / Techni-style systems)
- Supports:
- stable pressure output
- reduced leakage (with proper seals)
- long service life under harsh conditions
General Aqualon HP cylinder parts are manufactured for reliability, durability, and maintenance replacement, ensuring consistent pump performance and reduced downtime .
Typical use cases
- Waterjet cutting (metal, stone, composites)
- Industrial high-pressure cleaning systems
- Pump overhaul / rebuilds
