Agriculture
Cylinders engineered to boost productivity, reduce downtime, and deliver long-term value for farming equipment worldwide.
Industry Insight
Modern agriculture runs on hydraulics. From compact tractors to high-capacity combines and self-propelled sprayers, almost every critical movement in a machine is driven by hydraulic cylinders – lifting, steering, folding, leveling, clamping and controlling loads in tough outdoor conditions.
Agricultural cylinders must work reliably in dusty fields, fertilizer and chemical exposure, long idle periods, and intense seasonal peaks where downtime is simply not acceptable. High cycle counts, side loads from mounted implements, and constant vibration demand robust design, tight process control, and consistent performance over many seasons.
Genner designs and manufactures cylinders that match this reality – compact packages, optimized mounting, low leakage, long seal life, and coatings that withstand the harsh agricultural environment.

Applications – Machines We Equip
Genner's agricultural cylinders are used across a broad range of machines
Wherever motion, lifting, folding or control is required on agricultural equipment, Genner cylinders can be engineered to fit the platform.
Why Agricultural OEMs Choose Genner
Delivering value through engineering excellence and partnership
Application-Specific Engineering
Cylinders are designed around your machine – stroke, bore, mounting, cushioning, ports and sealing are optimized for your duty cycle, not just adapted from a standard range.
Robust Field Performance
Contamination-tolerant designs, suitable seal and wiper selections, and corrosion-resistant rods and hardware are chosen to withstand mud, dust, fertilizers, chemicals and weather exposure over many seasons.
Consistent Quality
With in-house machining, welding, surface treatment, assembly and testing, Genner ensures repeatable performance across large OEM volumes and multiple machine platforms.
Lower Total Cost of Ownership
By balancing design-to-cost with life expectancy, we help OEMs reduce warranty claims, service interventions, and unplanned downtime for farmers and contractors.
Fast Development & Localisation
Our engineering team works closely with your design and sourcing teams to adapt cylinders to regional requirements – from mounting changes to seal variants and porting standards.
Long-Term Partnership
As your platforms evolve, Genner supports redesigns, commonisation of parts across models, and continuous improvement in reliability, weight, and cost – building a sustainable, long-term supply relationship.
