Our Repair and Service Process

Disassembly and Full Inspection

Each cylinder is completely disassembled and inspected from end to end. We measure critical dimensions and assess all components to identify wear and damage. A full estimate is provided for approval before repairs begin.

Gland and Piston Inspection

Glands and pistons can wear down over time, especially in harsh conditions. We inspect for damage and can modify or replace components to improve sealing and performance.

Seal Condition Inspection

Seals naturally degrade due to temperature, fluid condition, and cycle frequency. While seal failure is often a symptom of a larger issue, we identify the root cause to prevent future problems.

Mounting Connections

Mounting components such as pins, threads, trunnions, and bushings are inspected for wear or failure. Damaged mounting points can affect performance or stop operation entirely.

Bore Condition Inspection

Scratches or scoring inside the cylinder bore can lead to pressure loss and internal leakage. We hone cylinder bores in-house to precise tolerances for optimal performance.

Porting Connections

Ports, fittings, and couplings are checked to ensure proper fluid flow. Any failure in these components can impact the entire system.

Rod and Stage Inspection

Rod condition is critical to sealing performance. We inspect for wear, damage, and straightness. Rods and stages can be polished or hard chrome plated in-house to restore durability.
