A cylinder consists of a tube capped at both ends and a rod attached to a piston protruding from one side. Pressurized fluid forced into either side of the cylinder expands or contracts the rod to generate motion.<\/p>\n<p>Though these assemblies are built to endure rigorous workloads, they can fail for several reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fluid contamination that damages the inside of the cylinder, rods, seals and fittings<\/li>\n<li>The loss of elasticity of the hydraulic seals<\/li>\n<li>Incorrect internal hydraulic pressure<\/li>\n<li>Corrosion<\/li>\n<li>Gouges or scuffs on the interior of the bore walls<\/li>\n<li>Split welds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Any of the issues above will likely require expert cylinder repair work.<\/p>\n<h2>About Our Hydraulic Cylinder Repair Services<\/h2>\n<p>At NMC Cat, we know what it takes to repair hydraulic cylinders and rods and get your equipment back on the job.
