Hydraulic system faults are among the most common and costly causes of unplanned downtime in plant hire and construction. Hydraulic pressure test kits allow engineers to accurately assess actual, minimum, or peak pressure, checking for operational efficiency and detecting faults before they become full breakdowns. This kit - HTS Spares part number HOS0390 - gives workshop engineers and field service technicians everything needed to connect quickly to a live circuit and take accurate pressure readings across a wide range of hydraulic systems. With dual-range gauges covering 0-100 Bar and 0-400 Bar, it handles both low-pressure return circuits and high-pressure working lines on a single kit.
For UK mobile plant and construction equipment, BSP compatibility should be checked before almost anything else - and this kit is built around exactly that. The four M16 x 2 test points cover 1/8", 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2" BSP fittings, making it a practical match for the mixed fleets that plant hire operators and site maintenance teams typically run. The 1m microbore hose lets you position the gauge where you can see it safely, rather than leaning over a live circuit - a practical detail that matters on busy sites working under PUWER requirements. Supplied in a hard carry case with custom inserts, the kit is just as at home in a workshop as it is in the back of a service van.
