I hate to be the one to point this out, but this thread is abou 1-1/2 years old, and raw dodge hasnt been online for about 3 months.
And While I agree that Mfg's like to inflate #'s most of the time, unless you actually put a pressure guage on the splitter, you are just guessing.
We put one on out huskee 27 ton with 4.5" cylinder. We knew we needed at least 3400psi to make the 27 ton mark. Lo an behold, we hit 3500psi out of the barns 11gpm 2-stage.:thumbsup: 27.81 Tons of force.
That same pump is used on the 22T splitters with a 4" cylinder. 3500PSI would put it right @ 21.98 Tons, so their right on their.
On a 5" cylinder, it would be about 34.38 Tons. So the MFG's were a little closer when they were calling them 35T splitters. To get to 37T, they would need about 3770PSI.
The point of all this is simple. If in doubt, put a guage on it. Frankly the 3500PSI suprised me. But it proved that we do indeed have a 27T splitter.
