Hydraulic Cylinder Rod RemanufacturingBeyond Re-Coating: Restoring Strength and Extending Life for Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Rods
Hydraulic cylinder rods in heavy equipment face relentless stress—handling massive loads in abrasive, corrosive environments. Over time, these rods develop more than just surface wear. Deep scoring, pitting, and diameter loss often compromise the base material, making standard re-chrome insufficient for a reliable repair.
We offer comprehensive hydraulic rod remanufacturing—going beyond coatings to fully restore structural integrity. Whether it’s multi-stage bed hoist cylinders, heavy-duty lift and tilt rods, or large boom cylinders, we deliver repairs engineered to withstand the demands of mining, construction, and quarry operations.
When Re-Chrome Isn't Enough — We Rebuild the Base
We offer hard chrome coatings and HVAF coatings for all hydraulic cylinder rods, but we don’t stop there. For many components, we go further by using Weld Overlay for Diameter Restoration.
Applying controlled weld buildup to re-establish lost base material, especially critical for:
- Bed Hoist Cylinder Stages (haul trucks)
- Severely worn Lift/Tilt Cylinders on (loaders and dozers)
- Deeply scored Boom Cylinders on excavators
Once structural integrity is restored, we apply:
- Hard Chrome Plating for standard applications.
- HVAF Carbide Coatings for severe service environments requiring superior wear and corrosion resistance. Typical coatings include Tungsten and Chromium Carbides.
- Precision Grinding & Polishing: Achieving OEM or better tolerances for sealing surfaces and smooth operation.
