With strategic alliances with various local and international suppliers as well as keeping stock of several components and items regularly used in hydraulic and pneumatic application. We are able to provide all the necessary resources to remanufacture cylinders at a fraction of the cost of a brand-new cylinder. This remanufactured cylinder operates at the same high performance and reliability level as a new cylinder, while saving costs for our customers as well as valuable resources that reduces the harsh impact it has on the environment. This, combined with our skilled in-house team of engineers, artisans and workforce, ensures the customer receives high quality service and end product.

Cylinders are disassembled and properly inspected. This includes cleaning, disassembly and complete assessment including critical measurement, material verification and testing and other NDT before disassembly.
Following OEM standards and specifications, it is then remanufactured
Items with a lot of wear and damage get replaced by new parts
The newly remanufactured cylinder is pressure tested according to client specification often above standard working pressure to ensure reliability in the working environment.
