In industrial and mining environments, hydraulic systems keep heavy equipment running, and when they fail, everything stops. But many Hydraulic Tubing Installations fall short because of one simple truth: the small details are often ignored. At Patrick Mechanical Ltd., we don’t just install tubing, we install performance, with a focus on every factor that keeps your system efficient and reliable.
Why Routing Mistakes Cause Big Problems
The way tubing is routed affects everything from pressure stability to fluid temperature. Poor layout choices create excessive bends, restrict flow, and generate heat buildup. These issues reduce efficiency, shorten component life, and lead to system failures that aren’t always easy to trace.
Some of the most common issues we see include:
- Incorrect bend radii and unsupported spans
- Excessive vibration from poor anchoring
- Tight clearances that lead to abrasion and fatigue
These aren’t surface-level mistakes, they’re system-level risks that impact daily operations.
PML’s Precision Install Philosophy
Our teams approach hydraulic installs the way others approach critical systems, because that’s exactly what they are. We begin with layout reviews and end with system testing, ensuring every install supports performance under pressure.
Our method includes:
- Planning layout for flow efficiency and service access
- Securing tubing with vibration-dampening supports
- Checking torque specs, sealing, and connection integrity
We don’t rush, guess, or outsource, because every shortcut in hydraulic systems shows up later as downtime.
The Contractor’s Job Is Operational Assurance
Too many installations stop at “done.” At PML, “done” means the system works, runs clean, and holds pressure without fluctuation. We build with end-use in mind, not just installation speed.
That’s why we:
- Test for system stability under real load
- Provide full documentation and handoff training
- Follow up to ensure everything operates as designed
It’s not enough to install a system that looks right. It has to work right, today, next quarter, and years down the line.
Precision Builds Reliability
Hydraulic systems are unforgiving. Every detail matters, from tubing alignment to clamp spacing to fluid cleanliness. At PML, we install with the full system in mind, knowing that precision today prevents downtime tomorrow.
