1. A hydraulic cylinder, comprising: a tube;a piston disposed within the tube and having a bore passing through the piston;a valve element disposed within the bore and having a length shorter than a length of the bore; anda protruding rod portion;wherein the valve element is mechanically movable via the protruding rod portion to allow fluid flow through the bore, and hydraulically movable to inhibit fluid flow through the bore. 2. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 1, wherein the valve element includes the protruding rod portion, and wherein the protruding rod portion is configured to engage an end of the tube when the piston is at an end-of stroke position to mechanically move the valve element relative to the piston. 3. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 2, wherein the piston includes a second bore and the hydraulic cylinder further includes a second valve element disposed within the second bore, the second valve element being mechanically movable to allow fluid flow through the second bore, and hydraulically movable to inhibit fluid flow through the second bore. 4. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 3, wherein the second valve element includes a second protruding rod portion configured to engage a second end of the tube when the piston is at a second end-of-stroke position to mechanically move the second valve element relative to the piston. 5. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 2, wherein the valve element includes a poppet portion and a spool portion extending from the poppet portion. 6. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 5, wherein the protruding rod portion extends from the poppet portion in opposition to the spool portion. 7. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 5, further including a plurality of annular grooves located along an outer surface of the spool portion and configured to retain fluid between the valve element and an inner surface of the bore. 8. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 1, further including a valve body disposed within the bore and being configured to receive the valve element, and a passage fluidly communicating a first end of the bore with a second end of the bore, wherein the valve element is movable to selectively block the passage. 9. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 1, wherein the valve element includes a passage extending from a first end of the valve element to an opposing second end of the valve element, the valve element being movable to selectively block the passage. 10. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 9, wherein the passage at the first end opens to a conical sealing surface of the valve element, and the passage at the second end opens to an end of the valve element that is substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the valve element. 11. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 9, wherein the passage at the first end opens to a radial surface of the valve element generally aligned with a longitudinal axis of the valve element, and the passage at the second end opens to an end of the valve element that is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. 12. A hydraulic cylinder, comprising: a tube;a piston disposed within the tube and having a first hydraulic surface and a second hydraulic surface disposed in general opposition to the first hydraulic surface;a valve body disposed within the piston and having formed therein a bore, and a passage fluidly communicating the first hydraulic surface with the second hydraulic surface; anda valve element disposed within the bore of the valve body and being movable from a first position at which fluid flow through the passage is inhibited, toward a second position at which fluid flow through the passage is allowed;wherein the piston includes a second bore and the hydraulic cylinder further includes a second valve element disposed within the second bore, the second valve element being movable to selectively allow fluid flow through the second bore. 13. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 12, wherein the valve element includes a protruding rod portion configured to engage an end of the tube when the piston is at an end-of stroke position to move the valve element relative to the piston. 14. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 12, wherein the second valve element includes a second protruding rod portion configured to engage a second end of the tube when the piston is at a second end-of-stroke position to move the second valve element relative to the piston. 15. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 14, wherein the valve element includes a poppet portion and a spool portion extending from the poppet portion, and the protruding rod portion extends from the poppet portion in opposition to the spool portion. 16. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 15, further including a plurality of annular grooves located along an outer surface of the spool portion and configured to retain fluid between the valve element and an inner surface of the bore. 17. A hydraulic cylinder, comprising: a tube;a piston disposed within the tube and having a first hydraulic surface, a second hydraulic surface disposed in general opposition to the first hydraulic surface, and a bore passing through the piston from the first hydraulic surface to the second hydraulic surface; anda poppet valve element disposed within the bore and having formed therein a passage fluidly communicating the first hydraulic surface with the second hydraulic surface,wherein the poppet valve element is movable from a first position at which fluid flow through the passage is inhibited, toward a second position at which fluid flow through the passage is allowed, andthe piston includes a second bore and the hydraulic cylinder further includes a second valve element disposed within the second bore, the second valve element being movable to selectively allow fluid flow through the second bore. 18. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 17, wherein the poppet valve element includes a protruding rod portion configured to engage an end of the tube when the piston is at an end-of stroke position to move the poppet valve element relative to the piston. 19. The hydraulic cylinder of claim 18, wherein the poppet valve element includes: a poppet portion and a spool portion extending from the poppet portion, the protruding rod portion extending from the poppet portion in opposition to the spool portion; and a plurality of annular grooves located along an outer surface of the spool portion and configured to retain fluid between the poppet valve element and an inner surface of the bore.
