Hydraulic cylinders can be expensive to replace locally, especially when the original part is discontinued, tied to a full assembly, or only available through a dealer network.
Tekonline can help investigate compatible replacement hydraulic cylinders, steering cylinders, rams and seal kits for selected machinery, mowers, tractors and equipment.
Good candidates for sourcing
- Steering cylinders and small hydraulic rams
- Loader, mower, tractor and compact machinery cylinders
- Seal kits for known cylinder models
- Parts with clear measurements, mounting points and thread details
- Parts where the genuine replacement is unavailable or uneconomical
Proof of experience
We documented one real-world example here: how we designed a better replacement John Deere power steering cylinder. That project involved identifying the original part, checking the dimensions and working towards a practical replacement. We are currently creating a mockup cylinder for one of our clients to test fit before a real cylinder is created:
Details we need
- Extended and retracted length
- Pin hole diameter and pin-to-pin centres
- Rod diameter and body diameter
- Port/thread size and orientation
- Photos of both ends, mounts and damaged areas
We will confirm whether a compatible replacement can be sourced or manufactured before quoting. Some parts may require additional measurements before we can proceed.
