All: Since I got all the good advice everyone sent - I decided to go in a different direction. Please see the attached. Can anyone tell me how to calculate the prying force for this model? Thanks in advance.

Thank you all of you for the information. Not only was it all informative, but it gave me pause to think if maybe we can do something better with this bracket. If we change this around - I may be back again to ask for help on bolt prying. Thanks again.

Please see attached sketch. I am not familiar with how to determine the prying force. Can someone please show me how to calculate the prying force on the bolt in the attached sketch. Thank you in...

We are gong to try and get a motor with speed controller for the pump as suggested. We will let you know how it goes. Thank you everyone for your help on this!!!! jritz

It is part of a test press.....the idea with this circuit is to slide test pieces back and forth to determine the coeffocient of friction and to determine wear. One cylinder pushs the piece "North" then the other pushes it "South" and so on. We are trying to slow down the rate which the...

Is there a bypassing flow control available that can take 5000 psi ot greater???

The URL for the image of the hydrualic circuit is attached. http://www.flickr.com/photos/27476886@N05/

I am trying to get someone to figure out how to post the circuit diagram. The speed does not have to be precise - just reasonably variable.

We have a circuit diagram ready, but cannot attach it at this time. We will comtinue to try.

I will try to get the Shop Manager to draw up a cicuit diagram.......then try to figure out how to attach it to one of the treads!!!! It may take a while, but I will get it posted...... Thanks.

We have a hydaulic circuit with a single acting hydraulic cylinder (spring return) that moves against some resistance for a few inches - then is allowed to return via the spring. We want to slow down the outward movement of the cylinder when under pressure. We put a needle valve into the...

We are using a Lord Adhesive to NR and CR rubber to a steel substrate during molding and vulcanization. The raw rubber we have been receiving seems to have less tack than normal. What effect does Tackifiers added to the rubber have on the steel to rubber bond when using an adhesive such as Lord...
