Coupling Installation
Hydraulic Pusher
Hydraulic hub installation tool for precise pull-up distance control on taper bore couplings.
Product Overview
The Hydraulic Pusher is used to install a taper bore hub on a shaft to a specific pull-up distance. Constructed from hardened alloy steel, each unit is pressure tested and delivered fully assembled with seals and fittings.
Riverhawk hydraulic pushers are engineered to each specific shaft and hub geometry, ensuring consistent, repeatable hub installation in the field. The design eliminates the need for heating or impact methods, protecting precision taper surfaces.
