When an off-the-shelf cylinder won’t fit, or the original is no longer available, Hydraulic Squad builds one for you. We manufacture custom hydraulic cylinders and manifold blocks in our Bronkhorstspruit workshop, made to your drawing, your specifications or your old worn-out part.
Every unit is pressure tested before delivery, and we ship to all nine provinces and to neighbouring countries.

Frequently asked questions
Can you copy my old cylinder?
Yes. Send it to us, or send photos and measurements, and we’ll build an exact or improved replacement.
Do you make once-off cylinders?
Yes, from a single unit to production batches.
How long does manufacturing take?
Usually 7 to 14 working days, depending on size and materials. If your job needs longer, we’ll tell you upfront.
