Hydraulic side links Cat 3 for heavy-duty tractor 3-point hitch systems

Hydraulic Side Links Cat 3 for Tractors

This collection includes hydraulic side links Cat 3 designed for tractors equipped with a Category 3 three-point hitch. Hydraulic side links are used to control the lateral tilt of rear-mounted implements and are essential for precise adjustment when working with heavy equipment.

By replacing mechanical side stabilisers, hydraulic side links allow on-the-fly adjustment directly from the tractor cabin, improving accuracy, efficiency and operator comfort during demanding field operations.

The hydraulic side links in this collection are supplied as complete heavy-duty units and are available in the following configurations:

• Cat 3 hydraulic side links with ball joint
• Cat 3 hydraulic side links with clevis connection

Both variants are designed for secure mounting and reliable operation under high load conditions.

Sizes, Stroke and Adjustment Range
