HYDRAULIC CYLINDERS-NEW/REPAIRS
Hydraulic Cylinder Repair - Inspection & Assessment
We will disassemble and inspect your hydraulic cylinder, thoroughly examining each component before commencing repairs. Each cylinder is fully tested for external leakage and bypass functionality on completion.
- Our specialised nut-breaking equipment allows safe disassembly and reassembly of cylinders, rods and pistons without damage, and is also used during final testing procedures.
SEALS
Hydraulic seal wear can be caused by a number of factors, including frequent use, ageing, oil contamination and fluctuating temperatures. While seal deterioration is often the primary cause of leaks and performance problems in cylinders, it's also important to check for potential damage to rods and gland areas, as these can further compromise the integrity of your hydraulic system. Regular inspection and timely replacement of seals will ensure consistent performance and prevent costly downtime.
Cylinder Barrel
Our team carry out thorough inspections and repairs on cylinder barrels, making any necessary adjustments to restore optimum performance.
- We offer cylinder barrels in a variety of materials and finishes to meet different operating requirements. Choose from high quality materials such as alloy steel, stainless steel and carbon steel, each selected for specific durability and performance requirements. Our advanced processing options include precision honing, chrome plating and heat treatment to ensure the barrel delivers optimum strength, corrosion resistance and longevity in demanding conditions.
Rod repair and replacement
Damage to hydraulic rods - such as bending, breaking or scoring - can often occur during regular use. We offer comprehensive solutions to these problems, including
- Replacement: For severely damaged rods, we provide new, high quality replacements to your specifications.
- Restoration: For rods with minor damage, we offer re-chroming and polishing services to restore them to their original condition, improving durability and extending life.
- Our expert team will ensure that each rod is returned to optimum performance standards, whether through full replacement or precision repair.
Piston and gland
Pistons and glands are subject to wear and tear, especially in harsh, heavy-duty environments. To ensure reliable performance and prevent unnecessary downtime, we offer services to either modify or replace these components as required.
- Precision modification: We can adjust pistons and glands to restore proper clearance, maximising cylinder efficiency and reducing wear.
- Replacement: For severely worn parts, we provide high quality replacements to maintain optimum cylinder functionality.
- Our services help extend the life of your hydraulic system, ensuring smooth and efficient operation in the toughest conditions.
Cylinder Mounting and Connection Solutions
Proper cylinder mounting is essential for maintaining alignment and preventing damage. Our mounting options include a variety of secure components such as pins, trunnions, tabs, bolts, bearings, flanges, and bushings, each selected for durability and stability in demanding conditions.
- Failure or misalignment of these components can lead to serious operational issues, including cylinder misalignment and extensive equipment damage. By using high-quality mounting and connection parts, we ensure reliable performance and longevity for your hydraulic cylinders, even under heavy load and high-stress applications.
Comprehensive Testing and Finishing
We conduct rigorous final testing on each cylinder to ensure it meets all specified requirements and performance standards. Once testing is successfully completed, we provide full finishing services, including priming, painting, and secure packaging, to prepare the cylinder for safe and efficient shipping.
- Our thorough approach guarantees that your cylinder is ready for immediate use upon arrival, delivering quality and reliability from our facility to your operation.
