Hydraulics are frequently used in heavy & earth moving equipment.
Since it has frequent use and bears so much load, it's high maintenance equipment. A lot of complaints come from the machinery users of hydraulic system failure - oil leakage, misalignment or cracked hydraulic cylinders. Generally, contamination of the fluid or oil and side loads can cause the system failure.

High quality Hydraulics Cap End Covers act as protective parts for the machinery. Cap End Covers keep off the dirt and grits and stop contaminating hydraulic fluids. Hydraulic Cap End Covers are strong enough to withstand stress on the cap end of the cylinder and extend hydraulic life and play an important role in the functioning of the hydraulic cylinder. Hydraulic Cylinder Components especially Cap end covers can be manufactured by metal working processes like Closed-die forging, Sand Casting and Investment Casting. We have also helped our customers on numerous process change projects. From Forging to Investment Casting. From Sand Casting to Investment Casting for their Hydraulic cylinder cast components requirement.

Hydraulic machinery manufacturers rely on the equipment parts manufacturers to deliver high quality cast parts. Hydraulic Cylinders Cap End Covers casted at Austin Alloy Cast are precise in design and have life extending qualities. That's why hydraulic machinery & parts manufacturers across the globe prefer Austin Alloy Cast as their investment casting solution provider.
