We don’t just call it ‘hydraulic cylinder repair’.
We call it ‘Recylindering by Hoven’.
Fast, cost-effective & manufacturer-independent
Hydraulic cylinder
repairs by specialists
It has always been, and remains, our aim to offer a new dimension in the reconditioning of hydraulic cylinders. This is because repairing an existing specialised hydraulic cylinder is often the most cost-effective way of getting the hydraulic cylinder back into service.
Under the name ‘Recylindering’, Hoven Hydraulik therefore offers a comprehensive repair service for hydraulic cylinders and other hydraulic components such as valve blocks and power units. We carry out repairs, overhauls and refurbishments on all Hoven hydraulic cylinders and other components, regardless of their year of manufacture. That is why you can still rely on our service for a Hoven product even after 25 years.

Our cylinder repair services
Multi-manufacturer repair
We repair hydraulic cylinders of all makes – from standard to custom-made cylinders, from construction machinery to industrial plant.
Recylindering – more than just a repair
Our three-stage concept (Basic, Premium, Premium Plus) ranges from purely functional repairs to a complete (including cosmetic) refurbishment, including test reports, seal and coating tests, and documentation.
