Liighthead Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 hey to everyone .. getting some bits together to build a radio flyer cart/trolley.. normal airbags aren't really worth the money for a cart to pull things/kids around/beer around car meets ect was looking at a few other radio flyer's few where using a air cylinder in place of the bag which makes sence but wondering what kind of weight can they take? of course depending on quality of the unit ect how can i work it out? most of them dont say :/ looking at a few ebay items at the moment mainly ( EG. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SC-40-100-40mm-Bore-100mm-Stroke-Pneumatic-Air-Cylinder-/400341041883?pt=AU_Business_Industrial_Industrial_Supply_MRO&hash=item5d362f82db&_uhb=1#ht_1419wt_906 ) i have another way in mind but would rather the air...

RossGo Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 Jordan built one on sound man. Check out soundmancaraudio on YouTube and he shows the build Yes I have a lot of stereo weight. I build for Smiles Per Gallon not Miles Per Gallon LOLZ My build - 1996 4Runner with 2 18s - 149+ in a sealed box (with radiators) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodied B2600ZX Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Air cylinder ratings will change with every cylinder. The larger the cylinder bore, the less air pressure they will take to lift the same weight as a smaller cylinder, but you will use more volume. Idk of a cylinder that wouldn't be able to handle the weight of a kid and cart, as long as they are mounted properly so there is no side deflection on the shaft. I know eBay has used air cylinders all day long. Usually from production plants. I've bought a few and they've always worked perfectly. 2 - Sundown SA 8V2 | CT Sounds 1400.1 | Pioneer DEH-X8500BS | 4/0 Big 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodied B2600ZX Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 The cylinder you linked to on eBay is wayyyyy overkill. I bet that thing could lift 400 lbs easily by itself. I could be wrong. I didn't see any pressure ratings. But smc cylinders are usually around 250psi x 40mm cylinder bore = 394lbs. Unless I'm missing something. You could get a cylinder in the 25mm range and be just fine. 2 - Sundown SA 8V2 | CT Sounds 1400.1 | Pioneer DEH-X8500BS | 4/0 Big 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk how much lift you are wanting to achieve. But if you incorporated a lever lift system, you could get a cylinder that's quite a bit shorter. Sorry for writing so much. I've built/dreamed up so many lil projects like this. I've built a bagged chopper bicycle and am currently building a slammed riding lawn mower. Haha. I love little fun projects! 2 - Sundown SA 8V2 | CT Sounds 1400.1 | Pioneer DEH-X8500BS | 4/0 Big 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liighthead Posted March 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 hey been a while haha my bad, hoilday and general life putting delays on projects Jordan built one on sound man. Check out soundmancaraudio on YouTube and he shows the build yeah saw his, he uses one from a car kind of setup, bit of overkill their made to lift 2 ton? give or take, and bit expensive The cylinder you linked to on eBay is wayyyyy overkill. I bet that thing could lift 400 lbs easily by itself. I could be wrong. I didn't see any pressure ratings. But smc cylinders are usually around 250psi x 40mm cylinder bore = 394lbs. Unless I'm missing something.You could get a cylinder in the 25mm range and be just fine. yeah wasnt sure how to work out how much weight they could hold at what psi if that was correct and could take anywhere near to 400lbs... makes life easier haha, and opens up a few doors for other projects i have ( eg, air ride bike's ect ) http://m.ebay.com.au/itm/400357579365?nav=SEARCH&sbk=1Something like this.

I've built/dreamed up so many lil projects like this. I've built a bagged chopper bicycle and am currently building a slammed riding lawn mower. Haha. I love little fun projects! yeah depends on the build ( not many plans here during little builds haha ) just have a general idea and make things work 6" would make a statement haha all good sorry for taking a bit to respond, little projects are always awesome, recently built/building a chopper but just took the pedals off, needs to go lower ... could use some bags though got any pics of your chopper / lawnmower ? and nice ride ( in your sig ) ( not upto date pic, been playing with the front forks, and yeah pedals in progress of being moved ( when get few parts ) http://i871.photobucket.com/albums/ab280/Liighthead/CAM00337.jpg http://i871.photobucket.com/albums/ab280/Liighthead/CAM00335.jpg ) and making a slammed trailer for it / my trike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
