Hydraulic Pumps | Selection & Industrial Sourcing

Hydraulic pump selection for gear, vane and piston pumps based on pressure, flow, displacement, speed, mounting, fluid and duty.

Key pump-selection parameters

  • Pump construction
  • Displacement and required flow
  • Working and peak pressure
  • Input speed and rotation
  • Shaft, flange and ports
  • Oil viscosity, temperature and cleanliness

Hydraulic pump families

  • Gear Pumps
  • Vane Pumps
  • Axial Piston Pumps
  • Radial Piston Pumps
  • Variable Displacement Pumps
  • Fixed Displacement Pumps

Typical applications

  • Industrial power units
  • Mining and steel equipment
  • Hydraulic presses
  • Mobile machinery
  • Lubrication and process systems

Pressure and flow are not enough for interchange

Displacement, speed, rotation, shaft, mounting flange, ports, control options and fluid conditions must also match. A clear nameplate and full code are the fastest starting point.
