Traditional Hydraulics - Hydraulic Systems Division | Parker US
Parker Image

Parker Aerospace has been involved with aircraft hydraulics from the early days of transatlantic flight up to modern more-electric designs. This includes R&D and support 3,000 psi Skydrol for commercial systems and for 5,000 psi aircraft.

Proven pedigree of success

While the industry has been moving away from conventional hydraulics to a decentralized architecture that’s more-electric, we’ve always supported traditional hydraulics. Back to beginning of the 737 and 747 now up to the newest 787 and A220. Additionally we’re strong in supporting business jet and regional aircraft.

5,000-psi High-Pressure Hydraulic Systems Reduce Aircraft Weight

We’re leading the way by supporting major commercial aircraft manufacturers with proven hydraulic systems and subsystems designed to perform at 5,000 psi, creating significant gains over the 3,000-psi systems traditionally used for commercial applications.

Our extensive experience in high-pressure fluid technology is providing real value and competitive advantage to aircraft manufacturers looking to maximize fuel economy and reduce maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) costs.
