Hydraulic cylinder repair
We proceeded as follows:
- First, the cylinder base eye was drawn in our CAD software.
- The second step was to produce the new cylinder base eye.
- The old eye was then separated from the cylinder and the tube prepared for the new eye.
- A brass bearing bush was then fitted with graphite.
- The next step was to weld the bottom eye back on.
- Finally, the cylinder was sealed using new seals and tested for function and tightness.
