Built for Real Farm Work

This rod is designed to work with Cross 2.5 inch bore hydraulic cylinders found on implements and equipment throughout the farm. Whether you’re operating a grain cart, running hydraulic attachments, or working with loader equipment, these cylinders handle the heavy lifting on everything from compact utility tractors to larger row-crop machines.

Made to Last

Cross manufactures these rods to handle the constant stress and harsh conditions of hydraulic systems. The hard chrome finish isn’t just for looks—it provides a smooth, durable surface that reduces seal wear and keeps your cylinder operating smoothly through busy seasons and tough conditions.

Good to Know

Rod replacement requires disassembly of your hydraulic cylinder, so it’s a good time to inspect and replace seals while you’ve got everything apart. Make sure to measure your old rod carefully and check the thread specifications before ordering. Keep the cylinder clean during assembly to prevent contamination that could cause premature seal failure.
