Control valves are essential hydraulic parts used in off-road machinery such as loaders, engines, tractors, excavators, and dozers. Serving as core elements of hydraulic systems, they regulate hydraulic flow and pressure, controlling various hydraulic functions including steering, lifting, and tilting. If you notice a decline in the performance of your control valve, it means a threat to the precision, stability, and safety of your machinery, prompting timely replacement.
The performance and functionality of off-road machinery rely directly on the precise adjustment and stable operation of control valves. Therefore, the compatibility, quality, and reliability of control valves are crucial for machinery brands. FridayParts offers compatible and reliable control valves for various equipment types such as excavators, dozers, and skid steer loaders. Major brands include Bobcat, Caterpillar CAT, Komatsu, John Deere, Kobelco, Hitachi, New Holland, Volvo, Nissan, and Sun Hydraulics.
Whether in construction sites, agricultural fields, or other industries, our control valves provide reliable hydraulic control and superior performance for your machinery, ensuring project operations are smooth and successful.
Control valves regulate the movement and functions of machinery by adjusting hydraulic flow and pressure within the hydraulic system. When operators send signals through control handles or electronic controls, the control valve opens or closes corresponding hydraulic pathways, enabling the motion of hydraulic cylinders, motors, and other actuating components.
Checking the hydraulic flow control device of the control valve and adjusting the opening or closing speed on the manifold block using standard tools. Alternatively, consider replacing internal components to modify the operating speed. (If not sure, consult a professional hydraulic technician.)
Generally, regular maintenance and inspection help ensure the normal operation and long-term reliability of control valves. It is recommended to follow the maintenance recommendations provided in the manufacturer's maintenance manual and perform routine cleaning, lubrication, and inspection.
