What Is Pirtek Preventive Maintenance?
Instead of waiting for hoses to fail — often at the worst possible time — Pirtek's preventive programs systematically inspect, tag, and replace hydraulic components before they reach failure point. Every hose on your site gets a unique tag, an inspection schedule, and a replacement timeline.
The result: fewer emergency callouts, lower total hydraulic costs, and equipment that stays running when you need it most. Our programs are tailored to your equipment, your industry, and your operational schedule.
- Operations that want to reduce unplanned hydraulic downtime to near zero
- Sites with critical equipment where any downtime triggers significant cost
- Companies moving from reactive to proactive maintenance strategies
- Operations with compliance or safety requirements for hydraulic system management
How Preventive Maintenance Works
A systematic approach to eliminating unplanned hydraulic failures.
Hydraulic Audit
We survey every hydraulic hose on your site — identifying types, conditions, risk levels, and failure history. Each hose gets a unique identification tag.
Program Design
Based on the audit, we design an inspection and replacement schedule — aligned to your operational calendar, shutdown windows, and budget.
Ongoing Inspections
Regular scheduled visits to inspect tagged hoses, replace aging components proactively, and update your asset register. Plus 24/7 emergency backup.

Preventive Program Capabilities
More than inspections — a complete hydraulic asset management system.
Every hose on your site gets a unique tag with installation date, specification, and next inspection date — creating a complete asset register.
Trained technicians assess hose condition against wear criteria, identifying hoses approaching failure before they fail.
Hoses are replaced on schedule — during planned maintenance windows — not at 3am when production stops.
Detailed reports on failure trends, common failure points, and recommendations to improve system reliability over time.
We align bulk replacements with your planned shutdowns so hydraulic maintenance doesn't require additional downtime.
Even with the best preventive program, emergencies can happen. Our mobile fleet provides 24/7 backup for anything unexpected.
