Oh ok, this is formula I think: Force = Initial pressure * (3.14 * diameter of cylinder^2)/4
So yes almost 11000 with 2.5", 7065 with 2"
Ok, I am back so many days without electricity. Too excusted to do anything, so many things to catch up. But I will finish that thing, it will be sooo useful. I have so much brush everywhere.
I need a little help. Can someone put a link of the pivot pin One that can take grease? I think I am slow, I cannot find it. Or else I will use just plain bolts.![]()

The hinges of my grapple has solid pins, a washer welded on one end and other drilled for lynch pin. The tube of the hinge has a grease fitting at the middle.
My cylinders have greasable pivot pins. Not sure the source.
A lot of loaders have pins that are greasable through the pin (end has grease fitting) you may have to go to tractor dealer and look at their loaders and see if there is a pin you can adapt. This will be expense, probably cheaper to have a machine shop make you greasable pins

The drive in fittings are ok until they pop out or you need to replace one, then they won't stay in as well and you end up threading the hole anyway.
For pins and bushings I buy that kind of stuff at tractor supply in the 3 point hitch/drawbar section. Between the different categories of hitches they have a decent selection from 5/8" or so through 1-1/4" diameter.
