Description
Ever need to convert a double-acting hydraulic cylinder to single-acting for a specific job? This 1/2-inch NPT breather assembly is exactly what you need when you want to let one side of your cylinder breathe while keeping hydraulic pressure on the other side. It’s a simple but crucial component that makes your hydraulic system more versatile for different applications around the farm.
What You’re Getting
- Standard 1/2-inch NPT threads that fit most hydraulic cylinder ports
- Reliable venting that prevents vacuum buildup during cylinder operation
- Solid construction that handles typical hydraulic pressures without leaking
- Direct replacement design – no modifications or adapters required
Built for Real Farm Work
This breather assembly works with Cross hydraulic cylinders and other standard cylinder brands used on farm equipment. Whether you’re converting a cylinder on a log splitter, loader, or other hydraulic implement, this breather lets air in and out while keeping dirt and moisture from contaminating your system.
Made to Last
The assembly is built to handle the vibration and pressure changes that come with hydraulic work. The internal components resist clogging from dust and debris, while the external threads stay clean for easy installation and removal when maintenance time comes.
Good to Know
This part has been superseded by part number 196-08168, so if you’re ordering replacements or spares, you might want to check on the newer version. Thread the breather into the port you want to vent – typically the rod end when converting to single-acting operation. Make sure the threads are clean and use a bit of thread sealant if your application sees high pressure or vibration.
