Hydraulic Steering Control Unit for Eaton Char-Lynn 3, 6, 12 Series 462 Cm3/r

Hydraulic Steering Control Unit for Eaton Char-Lynn 3, 6, 12 Series

This hydraulic steering control unit serves as a direct steering valve for Eaton Char-Lynn 3, 6, and 12 series systems at a 462 cm3/r displacement, giving operators precise oil flow control between the steering wheel and the hydraulic circuit.

Overview

This hydraulic steering control unit is a load-sensing steering valve built to meter oil to the steering cylinder on demand. It suits mobile equipment repair and rebuild work where a worn control unit causes hard steering or drift. The 462 cm3/r displacement keeps flow matched to the original demand of the machine.

Built For Performance

Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: How do I confirm this control unit matches my machine? A: Check the series number and displacement stamped on the existing unit before ordering. Serial number and steering circuit layout can affect fit.

Q: Does the displacement rating need to match exactly? A: Yes, the 462 cm3/r rating should match the original unit so steering effort and response stay within design limits.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
