Hydraulic cylinder repair
Cylinder repair is our expertise! We offer an extensive range of repair options for all cylinders from a basic re-sealing job to complete component reconditioning or remanufacturing. We repair cylinders of all makes, models, diameters and lengths, including single acting and double acting.
With two tear down benches and multiple vises spread throughout the shop we have the tooling to efficiently disassemble, diagnose, and repair any cylinder that comes our way!
Yes! We have a nut buster! Our in-house custom built nut buster develops 40,000 ft lbs of torque which allows us to work on even the largest mobile equipment cylinders!

WHO ARE WE?
My name is Sam!
I have a passion for hydraulic cylinders! I live them and breathe them and have spent the last 10+ years becoming an expert on cylinders and how to not only repair them but to solve complex problems surrounding the repair process. I enjoy thinking outside the box and finding solutions for things that challenge others. As owner and operator, I have put forth a great deal of effort and countless hours to create not just a business, but a service that my customers can rely on time after time. When I’m not at the shop I’m spending time with my beautiful wife, our two girls and the best shop dog around, Balto!

Many cylinders that come across our bench can be repaired same or next day. Regardless of your time frame you can always be assured that the quality is NEVER sacrificed.
