Common Question of B&G Hydraulic Ram T2
What is the Hydraulic Ram T2?
The B&G Hydraulic Ram T2 is a 12V hydraulic steering actuator for a compatible autopilot system. It moves the steering linkage through hydraulic pressure rather than operating an anchor mechanism. Confirm cylinder volume, fittings, hoses, pump, control unit, battery, and hydraulic autopilot system compatibility before installation.
What voltage does it use?
It uses 12 volts according to the product listing. Confirm battery capacity, cable gauge, fuse or circuit breaker, polarity, grounding, pump connections, and autopilot computer compatibility before wiring. Correct electrical protection supports dependable steering control.
Is it an anchor windlass?
No. The B&G Hydraulic Ram T2 supports autopilot steering and does not handle chain, rope, gypsy, or anchor drums. It is not an anchor windlass component. Verify separate anchoring equipment for marine anchor deployment and retrieval.
