Hydraulic valves allow you to control the flow and pressure of liquid as it travels through the valve; this can sometimes be referred to as a pressure control system. Hydraulic manifolds are used to regulate the hydraulic fluid throughout the system and regulate flow control, and theyre made up of a collection of valves which create a key component in hydraulics.
Here are the different types of hydraulic available from us:
With manifolds, there are two key types; the single piece manifold which is used to withstand much higher pressures, and the modular manifold which is used to save space and only requires one hydraulic filter.
