High Moment Capacity
Robust bearing support carries heavy loads and sidewall forces alike, so the actuator — not an external structure — absorbs the moment loads your application generates.
SungJi Hydraulics builds patented helical gear rotary actuators that outperform the units they replace — and bolt into the exact same envelope. Manufactured in South Korea. Engineered, sized, and supported right here in North America.
Every SJH hydraulic rotary actuator shares the same patented helical gear architecture — and the same six advantages over conventional rotator designs.
Robust bearing support carries heavy loads and sidewall forces alike, so the actuator — not an external structure — absorbs the moment loads your application generates.
Oil-immersed bearings, high-precision assembly, and sealing that keeps out dust and rain add up to actuators that keep working season after season, in the environments that wear competitors out.
Because the bearings run immersed in oil, they lubricate themselves. No grease points, no lube schedules, no missed maintenance — a real advantage for rental fleets and remote equipment.
A space-efficient helical gear design with fewer components delivers the same — or more — torque from a lighter, smaller package, freeing up payload and simplifying your mounting envelope.
Paired with a counterbalance valve, rotation stops the instant the maneuvering bar stops — no drift, no coasting, and no external brakes to buy, mount, or maintain.
The counterbalance valve reacts instantly to external shocks, relieving pressure spikes before they reach your equipment — protecting the actuator, the attachment, and the carrier.
SJH actuators are externally interchangeable with the competitor units you're running today — identical outside dimensions, identical mounting. The differences are all internal, and all patented: precision helical gearing that delivers more torque, bearing support that carries higher moment loads, and a lighter package with fewer components.
No mount redesign. No new prints. Just a stronger, lighter actuator in the same footprint — protected by U.S. and international patents.
Compare the Four SeriesFrom general-purpose rotation to severe-duty and marine environments, there's an SJH series sized for your application.
The general-purpose workhorse
Our broadest line of helical gear rotary actuators, covering the torque ranges most rotation applications call for.
View SRA Series →Compact power for tight envelopes
A space-saving series for weight- and envelope-critical applications where every pound and inch counts.
View SRB Series →Heavy-duty moment capacity
Our heavy-duty series, built for severe shock loads and the highest moment demands.
View SRC Series →Sealed for severe environments
A specialty series configured for harsh and corrosive environments — marine decks, washdown, and continuous outdoor exposure.
View SRS Series →Wherever equipment rotates under load, SJH actuators are working — from forestry grapples to marine deck cranes.
Bale handlers, loader grapples, and implement positioning.
Excavator grapples, demolition attachments, and positioning drives.
Utility derricks, pipeline handling, and service equipment.
Deck cranes, davits, and dockside handling equipment.
Forestry and scrap grapples, rotators, and container handling.
Recovery vehicles, loading systems, and mission equipment.
Aggregate handling and severe-duty attachments.
Truck-mounted cranes, hooklifts, and trailer equipment.
SungJi Hydraulics has built helical gear hydraulic rotary actuators for decades, with a 60-person manufacturing team in South Korea producing every unit to exacting quality standards. SungJi Hydraulics N.A. — a six-person sales and technical team based in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania — brings that product to the US and Canada with application engineering, sizing support, and fast answers.
Our mission is simple: products that exceed industry quality standards, delivered on time and priced right, backed by engineering support that lowers your total cost of ownership.
More About Us“We switched from our previous supplier because the SJH units drop into the same envelope but handle noticeably higher moment loads. Two years in on our grapple line and zero warranty returns.”
“The oil-immersed bearing design means our customers never have to grease these rotators. For rental fleets, that alone sells the product.”
“Their North American team turned around application sizing for a marine crane project in under 48 hours. That kind of engineering support is rare at this price point.”
“Lighter actuator, same footprint, more torque — it let us upgrade the rotation package on our trailer cranes without redesigning the mount.”
“Lead times have been consistent and the certified prints arrive with every order exactly as promised. They make it easy to spec.”
