Hydraulics

Hydraulic repair

A hydraulic failure is rarely just the part that broke. We repair the component and identify what caused it, so the same failure does not come back next quarter.

Hydraulic repair work being carried out on heavy equipment

Overview

Hydraulic Repair

We repair hydraulic systems on production equipment and heavy machinery, in the plant, in the yard or on the job site. Emergency calls are covered 24 hours a day.

Diagnosis comes first. Pressure and flow testing tells us whether we are looking at a pump, a relief setting, an internal leak past a cylinder seal or a control problem, before anything gets disassembled.

Common repairs

  • Cylinder reseal and rebuild. Leaking rod seals, drifting cylinders, scored rods and worn glands.
  • Pump and motor replacement. Noise, cavitation, loss of pressure and loss of flow.
  • Blown hose and tube failures. Replaced on site with correctly rated assemblies.
  • Valve faults. Sticking spools, incorrect relief settings, solenoid and pilot problems.
  • Overheating. Cooler condition, oil condition, internal bypass and reservoir capacity.
  • Contamination cleanup. Flushing, filter service and reservoir cleaning after a component failure.

Questions

About hydraulic repair

Can you get to us the same day?

For breakdowns, usually. We run 24/7 emergency coverage. Call 843-401-9670 and we will tell you honestly when we can be there.

Do you need the machine brought to a shop?

Almost never. We are set up to work on site, including building hose assemblies and pulling cylinders where the equipment sits.

What causes a cylinder to drift down under load?

Usually internal leakage past the piston seal, though it can also be a holding valve or a leaking directional valve. Testing tells the difference quickly, and the fix is very different in each case.

Most of our customers started with one of these and consolidated the rest. Fewer vendors, fewer handoffs, one number when something breaks.
