Service and Rebuilds
Servicing hydraulic steering units is NOT a do-it-yourself project.
Just because you have a copy of the exploded parts view does not mean it goes together as simply as it looks once you take it apart. A particle of dirt, corrosion, old seal, rusty needle bearing, or anything else, smaller than a grain of sand, can cause your system to malfunction. Many of our customers are marinas and marine mechanics that realize they do not have the expertise and experience in servicing and resealing hydraulic steering systems.
We will gladly look at your unit and give you a price quote for a surcharge of $50.00 and your for return freight. Simply send it to us and we can let you know how much the repair will be. (If you send us a box of loose parts because you already took it apart, there will be a surcharge to rebuild the unit before we can determine the rebuild cost. That surcharge will will be applied to the cost of the rebuild if you decide to have us do it.)
Our turn-around time on repairs is usually less than three days.

Example of ’average’ service costs: Service and reseal Hynautic H50, H60, H20-24, H80 helm - $150.00-$200.00 Service and reseal Hynautic H40 series - $300.00-$390.00 Aluminum cylinders - $150.00 - $200.00 (depending on the condition of the end caps and shaft) Brass cylinders - We must see them to quote a price
We can repair or rebuild any make and model of hydraulic steering or engine controls in our shop. We have a complete machine shop and can make any part that is not available from the original manufacturer. We also can sell you ’other brand’ replacements for the units you have so that you have equal cubic inches to your old unit and the steering will react in the same way as the old unit did.
FYI: Replacing your unit with a new or used unit that you find on auction sites or in the classified sections of the paper will in many cases cost you more than taking care of the equipment you own. If you do not properly match the helm unit with the cylinder, your system will not function the way you expect.
If you don’t find the information you need on this site, call us Mon-Fri 8-5 Eastern time at 1-800-745-0765
We warrant our work for one year. Examples of voided warranties: You open the unit up when you get it back for what ever reason! You send us the unit a second time because it is not working and when we open it, find that it is full of rust, water, or some other oil than the approved or recommended fluid. (This could be because you did not clean out the rest of your system per our recommendation and rust, water, or some other fluid damages the unit that we repaired.) Any damage to the unit caused by the end user or his representatives by hammering the steering wheel on, sitting on the steering wheel while driving the boat, pulling on the steering wheel in rough weather, etc. Please remember that your steering wheel in not a grab rail or leaning post.
