The HydraForce story began in 1985 when the company was founded near Chicago by several partners who saw the mobile equipment industry’s need for quality hydraulic cartridge valves and manifolds delivered in a timely and responsive manner. They also saw the potential for engineering innovation and design flexibility offered by cost effective and space-saving cartridge valves and hydraulic integrated circuits.
HydraForce offers one of the most comprehensive lines of high-quality hydraulic cartridge valves for the mobile and industrial equipment markets. They design and manufacture high performance valves that meet virtually any need encountered in machine design for flow rates of 0.1 to 140 gpm. HydraForce cartridge valves are designed to fit a wide range of industry-common valve cavities.
Their custom manifolds offer no-leak, screw-in componentry, fast and easy valve removal and replacement, and reduced plumbing when compared to traditional hydraulic systems. They also offer a robust line of controllers that are rugged, reliable, and optimized for electro-hydraulic system integration.
