Roll-Off Hoist Lift Cylinders
Replacement lift cylinders for roll-off truck hoists — the main hydraulic actuators that lift and tilt the hoist frame to load and unload containers. OEM-equivalent specs for Galbreath, Stellar, Switch-N-Go, Ampliroll, and Multilift hoist systems.
What this page covers
Hoist cylinders are the biggest, highest-load hydraulic cylinders on a roll-off truck. They lift the hoist frame from horizontal to a steep tilt angle, against the full weight of a loaded container. Every loading and unloading cycle puts the cylinder through full pressure and full stroke. Seal failure and rod-chrome damage are the most common wear modes.
PRT stocks complete replacement hoist cylinders and rebuild kits for the major roll-off hoist brands.
How to choose
Identify by hoist brand and model, cylinder bore and rod diameter, stroke length, mounting style, and OEM part number.
For rebuilds, inspect the rod chrome and cylinder bore before ordering seal kits. New seals fail quickly on damaged surfaces.
Hoist cylinder options
- Galbreath hoist cylindersOEM-equivalent for Galbreath cable hoists.
- Stellar hoist cylindersFor Stellar roll-off hoists.
- Switch-N-Go cylindersFor Switch-N-Go interchangeable-body trucks.
- Ampliroll & Multilift cylindersFor European-style hook hoists.
- Cylinder rebuild kitsSeals for in-place rebuild.
- Custom-fabricated cylindersFor legacy or discontinued OEM cylinders.
Frequently asked questions
How long does a roll-off hoist cylinder last?
10,000-25,000 cycles in standard service before seal failure. Heavy-duty applications (constant high-load cycling) shorten that to 5,000-10,000 cycles. Hydraulic oil cleanliness is the biggest factor in cylinder life.
Should I rebuild or replace a hoist cylinder?
Rebuild if the rod chrome and bore are in good shape — typically 30-40% of new cylinder cost. Replace if you see rod scoring, bore damage, or structural cracking. Don't rebuild a cylinder with damaged surfaces — new seals fail immediately.
Are PRT hoist cylinders OEM-equivalent for Galbreath roll-off trucks?
Yes. PRT cylinders match Galbreath OEM bore, rod, stroke, mounting, and port specifications. Drop-in for direct replacement.
Can PRT fabricate custom hoist cylinders for unusual roll-off trucks?
Yes. PRT manufactures custom cylinders to spec — provide bore, rod, stroke, mounting style, port size, and pressure rating.
