Abstract: A hydraulic cylinder may include a housing having a rod end and a cap end and the cap end may include a snubbing bore. The cylinder may also include a rod having a working end outside the housing and extending through a rod end of the cylinder to a piston end. The cylinder may also include a piston arranged within the housing on the piston end of the rod and configured to articulate within the housing between the rod end and the cap end. The piston may have a longitudinal bore extending into a cap side of the piston and the bore may include a retainer lip. The cylinder may also include a snubber configured for engaging the snubbing bore of the cap end when the piston approaches the cap end of the housing. The snubber may have an annular flange configured for retention by the retainer lip.
