Infrastructure & Honing Facility
Merchant Hydraulic operates a state-of-the-art 12,000 Sq. Ft. manufacturing facility in Phase-II, GIDC Vatva, Ahmedabad. Engineered for heavy milling, boring, and high-pressure hydrostatic calibration.
Plant & Machinery Inventory
We own and operate heavy-duty fabrication machinery, lathes, and testing platforms to handle deep-hole drilling, circular mig-welding, and high-pressure system manifolds:
Rigid Quality Control Sequence
Every cylinder assembly undergoes standard testing phases to eliminate seal failures and structural tube micro-cracks before packing:
Raw Material Inspection
Ultrasonic testing of steel bars and honed tubes to check for structural micro-cracks.
Machining Quality Control
Thread verification, surface roughness inspection (Ra value under 0.2 microns for piston rods).
Chrome Plating Verification
Micron thickness testing (minimum 30-50 microns chrome layer) and salt spray testing for corrosion resistance.
Assembly & Sealing
Class-100 assembly workspace for seal fitting to prevent dust ingress.
Hydrostatic Testing
Every cylinder is pressurized to 1.5 times its rated pressure and held for 15 minutes to confirm zero leakage.
Secure Export Packing Standards
To prevent marine corrosion and physical damages in transit, Merchant Hydraulic follows strict packing protocols.
Prior to packing, exposed cylinder rods are wrapped in rust-inhibitive wax tape, and ports are plugged with heavy plastic caps.
The entire assembly is wrapped in heavy bubble sheet alongside active silica desiccant bags to absorb relative humidity.
Securely bolted inside heavy heat-treated pine-wood crates to withstand forklift motions and cargo container shifts.
