- Categories : Hydraulic Components , Hydraulic Master blog , Hydraulic valves , Remote Radio Control

In modern machinery, whether in construction, agriculture, forestry, or industrial applications, hydraulic controls and components play a vital role in delivering power, precision, and reliability. At Hydraulic Master, we specialize in providing a full suite of these systems—including radio remotes, hydraulic valves, proportional joysticks, control panels, cables, and pumps—ensuring top performance and customer satisfaction.

Fundamental Components of Hydraulic Systems

  • Hydraulic Valves & Manifolds

The brain of any hydraulic system—valves direct the flow and pressure of hydraulic fluid to actuators and other components. We stock:

  • Lever-operated and proportional sectional valves (up to 40 GPM, 150 L/min)

  • Customizable options with features like power beyond ports and cascading sections
  • Radio Remote Controllers

Wireless or cable-control systems, such as the Scanreco RC400, provide precise control over your hydraulic valves—even adding proportional plug-and-play modularity directly to existing valves

  • Proportional Joysticks & Control Panels

These allow nuanced control over machine motions, supporting both on/off functionality and full proportional modulation. Available in multiple lever/joystick configurations and custom switch arrays

  • Cables, Solenoids & Accessories

Durable cables, connectors, solenoids, hose fittings, and adapters ensure seamless integration. Hydraulic Master also offers spare parts like Galtech valve kits and pressure sleeves

  • Pumps, Cylinders & Accumulators

Our product range covers hydraulic power units, cylinders, accumulators, filters, and heat exchangers—ensuring you have everything required for complete, dependable systems

Why These Components Matter ?

  • Flow & Pressure Regulation
    Flow control valves govern the speed of hydraulic actuators, while pressure valves (relief, sequence, compensators) protect your system and enable complex, staged operations

  • Directional Control
    Directional control valves in manifolds route fluid to the right cylinders or motors, delivering precise movement and smooth operation

  • Modularity Boosts Efficiency
    Stackable valves and plug-and-play remotes allow fast customization—saving time, money, and reducing machine downtime
