The Back Head (also referred to as the Rear Cylinder, Top Cap, or Upper Cylinder Housing in three-stage hydraulic breakers) is the critical pressure-retaining top component of the power cell assembly. In a standard three-stage hydraulic hammer design (comprising Back Head, Main Cylinder, and Front Head), the Back Head performs two vital operational functions:
First, it houses the integrated high-pressure Nitrogen (N₂) gas chamber that acts as an energy accumulator, absorbing piston recoil impact and boosting downward strike frequency.
Second, it provides the main structural anchor for the long through-bolts (side bolts) that clamp the entire power cell together under extreme hydraulic working pressure.
SLYM MACHINERY manufactures heavy-duty, heat-treated 20CrMo forged alloy steel Back Heads precision-machined to direct OEM specifications for global hydraulic breaker brands including Soosan, Furukawa, Montabert, Krupp, NPK, Everdigm, and Rammer.
Metallurgy & Manufacturing: 20CrMo Forged Alloy Steel
SLYM Back Heads are produced from high-grade 20CrMo (Chromium-Molybdenum) structural alloy steel. Selected for its exceptional hardenability, tensile strength, and impact fatigue resistance, 20CrMo provides absolute protection against gas chamber wall deformation and bolt-pocket stress cracking under continuous high-frequency pressure waves.
Precision Manufacturing Standards:
3D High-Density Forging: Eliminates internal porosity, shrinkage voids, and structural inclusions, guaranteeing 100% fluid and gas tight integrity.
Controlled Quenching & Tempering (Q&T): Subjected to thermal processing to achieve a tough, shock-absorbing core (HB 260-310 / HRC 28-35) combined with wear-resistant sealing faces.
Micron-Precision CNC Boring: Gas chamber bores and seal landing grooves are CNC-machined and mirror-honed to maintain strict micro-clearances, preventing nitrogen leakage and O-ring extrusion.
100% Non-Destructive Testing: Every Back Head undergoes Ultrasonic Testing (UT) and Magnetic Particle Inspection (MT) to ensure 100% crack-free structural performance before factory dispatch.
Key Product Features
Heavy-Duty 20CrMo Construction: High yield strength resists gas chamber swelling and structural distortion during continuous quarrying.
Precision N2 Gas Chamber Sealing: CNC-machined seal landings prevent nitrogen gas pressure drops, maintaining consistent breaking impact energy.
Reinforced Through-Bolt Anchor Pockets: Threaded and counterbored bolt areas are stress-relieved to prevent fatigue fracturing under asymmetric bolt torque.
Direct OEM Interchangeability: Fully compatible with original factory dimensions, gas charging valve threads, and power cell mounting interfaces.
B2B Identification & Ordering Checklist

Q1: Why does SLYM specify 20CrMo forged steel instead of standard cast steel for Back Heads?
A: Cast steel contains microscopic internal blowholes that can cause slow nitrogen gas seepage and high-cycle stress fractures. 20CrMo forged alloy steel provides a dense grain structure that guarantees gas tightness and superior fatigue resistance under high-joule recoil forces.
Q2: What is the main cause of nitrogen pressure loss in a hydraulic breaker Back Head?
A: Gas loss typically stems from degraded charging valve O-rings, scratched gas chamber seal landings, improper charging technique, or microscopic casting defects in low-quality aftermarket heads. SLYM precision-honed 20CrMo Back Heads eliminate structural porosity and seal landing wear.
Q3: Is the Back Head interchangeable with the Main Cylinder?
A: No. In a three-stage hydraulic breaker, the Back Head sits at the top to hold nitrogen gas and secure through-bolts, the Main Cylinder houses the reciprocating piston and hydraulic control valve, and the Front Head holds the chisel bushings and retainer pins.
