Hydraulic Cylinder Repair in Wichita Falls, TX

Norwood Machine repairs and rebuilds hydraulic cylinders: teardown, inspection, reseal, rebuild, and test. A leaking, scored, or bent cylinder gets torn down, measured, and put back into service. When a rod or barrel is damaged, we machine or replace it rather than sending you to buy a whole new cylinder.

Turnaround

Lead time depends on parts and what the cylinder needs. Call the shop for current turnaround on your cylinder.

What to bring

Bring the whole cylinder if you can. If it is still on the machine and you are not sure it is the cylinder, send a photo of the leak or the damage and we will help you figure it out.

Common Questions

Can you save a scored rod, or does it need replacing?

Sometimes we can rechrome or repair it, sometimes it needs replacing. We measure it and tell you.

Do you test the cylinder before I get it back?

Yes. Every rebuild gets tested before it leaves.

What if I do not know the brand of the cylinder?

That is fine. We work from the cylinder itself, not a part number.

Can you rebuild a cylinder you did not build?

Yes. We rebuild cylinders off all kinds of equipment.
