How to repair hydraulic hoses

Nov 21,2024

To repair hydraulic hoses, first identify the damaged area by inspecting for leaks, cracks, or worn spots. Turn off the hydraulic system and release any residual pressure. Cut out the damaged hose section, even if only the end coupling is faulty, to ensure a fresh, clean cut. Thoroughly clean the cut ends and fittings to avoid contaminating the system, as even small particles can harm internal components. Install a new hose or replace the damaged section by connecting the fittings carefully, following torque specifications, and securing with clamps as needed. Once installed, gradually repressurize the system to check for leaks and ensure the hose operates properly. A final inspection confirms the repair is complete and safe for use.

How to Prevent Hydraulic Cylinder Drift

Nov 20,2024

Hydraulic cylinder drift is a problem that arises between the piston, rod, and hydraulic fluid pressure within a cylinder. When a seal fails and fluid begins to seep, it creates a balanced level of pressure on both sides of the piston throughout the cylinder chamber. Typically, pressure levels vary with the machine's actions. When oil pressure within the hydraulic cylinder stabilizes evenly, drift will occur.
