Cylinder Reseal Service

Resealing a cylinder before a major failure is a preferred routine maintenance process. Potential failure indicators such as seal leaks and control drift should not be ignored. Leaks are sources of air leakage, contaminants, and loss of fluid. Control drifting is another indicator of seal issues and a needs addressing before complete hydraulic system failure.

  • Evaluation of cost to repair.

  • Evaluate repair vs. new replacement cost.

  • Reseal/repair or replace.

  • Test the repaired pump/motor.

Repair Indicators:

  • Oil Leak

  • Pump not producing desired pressure.

  • Motor not reaching desired output torque/speed. 

Our capabilities include:

  • Precision machining.

  • Extensive welding, honing, testing.

  • Complete cylinder manufacturing.

evere Cylinder Damage

For damaged Cylinders, a light hone will not be sufficient. We offer the following:

Process

  • Heavy boring to remove damaged areas.

  • Custom made seal kits to match finished bore diameter.

  • If the cylinder is non repairable, a new tube can be manufactured to meet or exceed all OEM specifications.

At Lake Tool & Hydraulic we can make changes to existing hydraulic cylinders, repair damaged cylinders or fabricate new cylinders which meet or exceed OEM specifications.
