Is it Time to Replace Your Hydraulic Cylinders?
Even though hydraulic cylinders are incredibly reliable, there will come a time where they will fail – like all other types of mechanical equipment. These are some of the more common reasons hydraulic cylinder replacement is needed.
- Bearing or rod damage – When a cylinder is put under too much of a load, that can lead to bend rods and damaged bearings. There are also times where these problems can occur due to load misalignment. When a cylinder has to handle an excessive load, that can result in a broken eye bearing. Excessive pressure can also lead to damaging impacts.
- Leaking seals – This will usually occur when the seal isn’t fitted properly. However, leaks can also happen if the cylinder seal grooves corrode or become contaminated with oil.
- Moisture – When a cylinder is exposed to an excessive amount of moisture, that can lead to not only corrosion of the rod but also seal damage. This can result in complete hydraulic system failure if not addressed as soon as possible.
