HYDRAULIC CYLINDERS
Our steering cylinders are in bronze and steel with stainless steel rod. The ball joint is in steel as well. The cylinder's dody is properly painted to work in a marine environment and can be in different colours on specific request. Each cylinder is supplied with brass fittings in different sizes. ACCESSORIES In the BCS products range there is a wide choice of hydraulic steering accessories, too, such as non return valves, by-passes, relief valves, steering wheels, hosing and fittings of any type and seize. Some of our standard models are shown here below. For any further reference about a great number of special configurations for the most various applications our Technical Department can supply any detail about seizes and technical data.

216FM “Front Mount” Cylinder
The HyDrive Model 216FM cylinder is designed to fit all brands of V4 and V6 Outboards*. It offers the advantage of rigid mounting directly in front of the motor. While it does require more well-space than the “Bullhorn” type cylinder, the hydraulic hoses remain stationary.
The marine brass cylinder is nickel coated and has special non-conductive and wear resistant rod-guides, offering maximum protection against electrolysis and other damage. It is capable of handling single or twin V4 and V6 outboards without torque feedback (single motors to 235HP or twin up to a total of 400HP- counter rotating). Combined with the Admiral series 101 helm, it offers the ultimate in boat handling for you and your family.

Introducing the HyDrive Model 212T Sport cylinder which offers the power and reliability of hydraulic steering at prices which are more than competitive with many mechanical systems. This compact tube-mount cylinder is capable of handling up to twin 150HP engines (counter-rotating) or a single 235HP with comfort. It attaches directly to the outboard motor's tilt-tube just like the old push-pull cable steering! It also attaches to Stern-Drives in the same manner, and can be used on Sterndrive Power steering cylinders making dual stations very simple.

A very popular cylinder type for outboards is the HyDrive tube-mount or side-mount 210T (balanced) and 210TSE (unbalanced). It can handle the same horsepower as the powerful 210BH Bullhorn cylinder, but it is simpler and cheaper to install. The only restriction to fitting them is the side-clearance requirements in the engine well. Made of chromed brass, bronze and stainless steel, there are two versions available, - the 210T which is a balanced cylinder, and the unbalanced 210TSE which has slightly higher turns one way than the other. It's advantage is that it requires less clearance for installation. They can also be fitted directly to splashwell brackets to replace any cable steering. It's really that simple.

210BH “Bullhorn” Cylinder
There are several different ways to steer outboard motors. You need to consider the room available and the design of the boat’s engine well. The most popular of our outboard steering cylinders is our Model 210BH Bullhorn unit. This is the most powerful and durable cylinder of its type on the market. It is capable of handling single or multiple engine installations up to 1200HP combined*
What sets these HyDrive cylinders apart from the competition is the materials used to build them. While other brands use anodised or painted aluminum alloy cylinders, HyDrive uses only chromed brass, bronze and stainless steel - built for the toughest marine environment.
The 210BH cylinder mounts very simply to the tilt-tube of the outboard motor and fits neatly under the front of the motor cowling. It is compact in design and requires only a small amount of clearance (615mm). It requires considerably less space than some competitors “front mount” design cylinders.

The Harken HydroTrim is true push-button sailing for main and headsail sheeting. Using a 1:4 or 1:6 reverse purchase, it solves the problem of winches that tail line into the cockpit—the hidden belowdecks or in-boom purchase contains all line within the system and saves valuable space on deck.
The cylinder is affixed to the hull or frame with a two-piece retaining bracket. This one-time installation allows the cylinder to be easily removed and serviced without unbolting anything from the hull. The blocks can be removed from the cylinder ends with a single pin so you can service them offsite or leave the rigging intact while servicing the cylinder. Two smaller low-friction sheaves on the cylinder ends replace the larger diameter sheaves typical of most belowdecks trimming systems, reducing the overall length of the system and allowing installation into smaller spaces.

Power pack size 4 is equipped with 2 DC twin pump units and is therefore the most powerful unit within the Reckmann range. This unit's large reserve power capacity makes it possible to maintain sufficient system pressure with reduced oil flow should one of the pumps fail completely.
By using anodised aluminium throughout we have achieved maximum corrosion resistance and a weight of only 79 kg (174 lbs.) with up to ten functions.
The unit is suitable for controlling applications from any manufacturer, e.g. roller furlers, mast furling systems, foot outhauls, hydraulic winches, windlasses and the widest variety of ramps, doors and platforms. If your desired application isn't listed, please ask us. We will be happy to advise you.
The unit is supplied fully wired to an electrical control box (circuit board), which facilitates quick and convenient connection to a push button cable via the terminal block. Pressure stage control is purely mechanical and overload protection does not use any electronic components, thus guaranteeing fault
free operation.
The special design of this unit provides for convenient and time saving maintenance because all parts are accessible without having to open the fluid reservoir. All functions are indicated by LED's, thus simplifying fault finding. An integral fan and thermal switch prevent potential overheating of the 3 kW electric motor during overload conditions. The unit is equipped with an oil sight glass for visual inspection of the fluid level, and an additional electrical oil level check will report any loss of fluid.

Power pack size 1 is a small, extremely compact hydraulic unit with an impact resistant plastic reservoir. It weighs only 14 kg (30 lbs), requires very little space and can be mounted upright or on its side. It is thus ideal for installation inside the engine compartment and for use on smaller boats.
The unit is suitable for controlling roller furlers, mast furling systems, foot outhauls and a wide variety of ramps, doors and platforms. Note however that this unit is not suitable for powering winches. In this case please select a more powerful unit from the Reckmann range (e.g. Power pack size 2).
A maximum of 2 applications can be powered and with the exception of the combined function for furling mast and foot outhaul only one application can be controlled at any given time. Options available include an electrical control box and a push button switch.
The transparent oil reservoir makes it easy to check the oil level visually. The unit comes supplied with 3 litres or 5 litres of hydraulic fluid respectively.
The suction line of the pump incorporates a filtering system, which protects valves and motors from contamination.

Used as mast, sail, and keel controls, Harken’s highly efficient Grand Prix cylinders outlast and outperform on the hottest raceboats. They’ve endured hundreds of thousands of cycles in the testing lab and have gone on to prove themselves on champion TP52s and other winning Grand Prix yachts. Meticulous engineering and top-quality components let Harken cylinders excel in constant
high-stress racing and harsh marine environments.
Cylinders are available in titanium or Hardkote-anodized, Teflon®- impregnated 7075-T6 aluminum for strength. Graphite-filled Teflon® rod seals and bronze-filled Teflon® piston seals are extremely low friction and are more durable than polyurethane seals. Performance O-rings and slant springs in the seals provide consistent seal pressure for a reliable, long-lasting fit. High-strength titanium,
17-4PH stainless steel, or Nitronic 50 rods and pins provide superior strength and corrosion resistance.
Cylinders include a standard clevis jaw on both ends, but can also be fitted with blocks and different eye types. Cylinders include push, pull, and pull/pull styles.
