Abstract
A two step pressure intensifier adapted for use as a clamp or a via including a housing cylinder which sealingly houses a telescoping cylinder. The telescoping cylinder is extended rapidly outward by application of low pressure to hydraulic fluid within the telescoping cylinder. Upon meeting resistance, the extension speed of the telescoping cylinder is slowed down and high presssure is applied. The use of a small diameter force input rod or piston is encompassed by a close fitting input portion of the telescoping piston so that the two pistons move together during a portion of both their force and retraction strokes.
