Hydraulic Cylinder Repair & Fabrication

For linear power applications, a hydraulic cylinder is your best option. Depending on the pressure of your hydraulic system and the size and geometry of your hydraulic cylinder internals, you can deliver incredible amounts of power to extend or retract your cylinder. The basic components of a hydraulic cylinder are simple: a cylindrical cavity houses a piston and is capped at both ends. A shaft attached to one end of the piston passes through a seal at one of the caps. Pressurized fluid applies force to one side of the piston or the other, moving it in or out.

This type of hydraulic cylinder is found in many industrial applications such as presses, construction equipment, cranes, forges and more, and can deliver thousands of tons when properly dimensioned and configured. With that kind of pressure, you can expect that your hydraulic cylinders will eventually start to leak or fail completely.
