The Multiquip 42226 is a genuine OEM Hydraulic Steering Cylinder Assembly designed for HTX6H, STX6H, HTXG6DF, STXDF, and PRX series ride-on power trowels. As a direct OEM replacement, this assembly meets the original engineering specifications set by Multiquip for these hydrostatic and hybrid trowel platforms. Sourcing the correct part number matters on hydraulic steering systems — the 42226 ensures proper pressure response and directional control are maintained without adaptation or guesswork. DHS Equipment supplies this part direct, so you can get your machine back on the slab fast.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hydraulic Specification: — Built to Multiquip's original pressure and bore tolerances for the steering circuit, ensuring consistent cylinder stroke and fluid seal integrity under working load.
- Direct Bolt-In Replacement: — Matches the original mounting points and port configuration on HTX6H, STX6H, HTXG6DF, STXDF, and PRX trowels for a straightforward swap.
- Broad Ride-On Trowel Compatibility: — Fits across Multiquip's hydrostatic HTX and STX series as well as the PRX hybrid power float platform, covering a wide range of finishing equipment in one part number.
- Steering Precision Restored: — A worn or leaking steering cylinder causes sluggish, imprecise directional response. Replacing it with the correct OEM assembly restores the sharp, responsive steering control operators depend on for tight finishing passes.
- Hydraulic System Safety: — A failed steering cylinder can result in loss of directional control on a ride-on trowel. Using the genuine OEM 42226 assembly ensures the steering circuit operates within its designed pressure range, protecting the operator and the work surface.
The hydraulic steering cylinder is the actuating component that translates hydraulic pressure from the steering circuit into physical directional movement of the trowel. When the operator steers, pressurized fluid extends or retracts the cylinder, pivoting the machine in the intended direction. A cylinder that is leaking internally, scored, or worn will cause the machine to drift, respond slowly, or lose steering authority altogether — issues that are especially problematic on large finishing slabs where precise blade path control is critical.
