These days, virtually every Cat® machine operates via hydraulic systems. Hydraulic hoses perform the essential task of transporting fluids from one hydraulic system component to another. Hose leakage or failure can result in significant damage to equipment components and could possibly render a machine inoperable. If you’re in Kentucky, Southern Indiana, West Virginia or Southeastern Ohio, you can trust the heavy equipment experts at Boyd CAT to handle all of your hydraulic hose needs.
Boyd CAT features complete hose shop services for Cat machines. If you need a new hose for your equipment, our team can quickly assemble a customized hose using genuine Cat parts. Simply locate the part number on the damaged factory-installed hose, which identifies all the required components and build specifications, and give us a call. We’ll get right to work to build a hose that meets your needs.
We build hydraulic hoses that meet the high Caterpillar® quality standards. We visually and dimensionally check every hose to ensure crimps comply with Caterpillar specifications. We also institute a certified clean process to verify the absence of contaminants that could damage key hydraulic system components such as pumps and cylinders. Your hose will exceed your expectations in terms of performance and longevity.
We can also perform fast and efficient hose repairs at our hose shop. Our repair process includes inserting a pneumatic foam projectile that will remove contaminants from inside the hose. We’ll also carefully measure coupling crimps to verify the appropriate diameter. Finally, we’ll cap off the hose ends to ensure the hydraulic fluids remain free of contaminants long after the repair job is done. We can typically complete this entire process in 30 minutes or less!
