Magister Hydraulics Single Acting Hydraulic Cylinder - Snow Plow Hydraulic Cylinder 1.5 Bore, 6 Stroke - Meyers Replacement Cylinder 1.5x6MYE

The Magister Hydraulics Single Acting Hydraulic Cylinder appears to be a mixed bag based on customer feedback. On one hand, several users have reported that the cylinder works effectively, with particular praise for its fit and functionality in applications like snow plowing and dump bodies on vehicles like the John Deere gator. However, the experience has not been universally positive, as others encountered significant issues that detracted from their overall satisfaction. A common concern among users is the quality of the fittings; some complained that the plastic threaded fittings were prone to failure, leading to leaks right from installation. A few customers had to replace these fittings with more durable options. Additionally, the lack of grease fittings was noted, which might lead to increased wear over time, with one user reporting that the cylinder failed after just nine months. Support issues also emerged as a pain point, with difficulties in reaching customer service for replacements or assistance after experiencing product failures. Despite these issues, some users expressed their intent to repurchase, indicating that when functioning correctly, the cylinder meets their needs effectively. Overall, while the Magister Hydraulics Single Acting Hydraulic Cylinder has the potential to perform well under the right conditions, potential buyers should be aware of its installation requirements, the importance of checking fittings, and some ongoing concerns regarding durability and customer support. **
