Hydraulic Components
At a basic level, hydraulics is the liquid version of pneumatics. Hydraulic components such as cylinders, motors, and rotary actuators directly help in the conversion of hydraulic energy into mechanical energy. This equipment uses pressurized liquids to generate, control, and transmit power in a broad range of automation applications.

Hydraulic Cylinders
Hydraulic cylinders are mechanical devices that use hydraulic oil or other fluids to transmit force in a linear motion. Hydraulic cylinders are often used because they can handle large, heavy loads and can produce large amounts of forces. Hydraulic cylinders have various applications and are commonly used in construction equipment, manufacturing machinery, and civil engineering.Hydraulic Fittings
We stock hydraulic fittings in a wide variety of sizes, styles, and configurations to fit any hydraulic system. Our inventory includes hydraulic equipment fittings with NPT, JIC, SAE, metric, O-ring boss, and O-ring face seal threads. Material options include brass, steel, and stainless steel.Hydraulic Equipment Gauges
Monitor flow, pressure, and temperature with hydraulic equipment gauges. Select from pressure gauges, indicator gauges, flow meters, and a range of accessories to meet your process monitoring needs. We offer gauges in various case material and mounting style options to handle any operating environment.Reliable Power Transmission for Automated Applications
Hydraulic systems generate an exceptional amount of power, making them ideal for moving large and heavy loads. High-powered hydraulic components also work well for mixing and agitating substances. Applications where you typically find hydraulic equipment include:- Construction: powering mixers, agitators, cranes, and other heavy-duty machinery
- Agricultural equipment: vehicle braking and power transmission systems, material handling equipment
- Injection molding: plastic injection machines, molds
- Woodworking and lumber processing: industrial Saws
