Our steering columns are versatile in commercial vehicles, construction machinery, agricultural and forestry machines, forklifts, and ships. Thanks to different lengths, diameters, and shaft designs (tapered or splined), they can be optimally adapted to various vehicle types and steering units. Hydraulic assistance ensures precise control, high driving comfort, and minimal energy losses.

 

Hydraulic Steering Columns – Frequently Asked Questions

What are hydraulic steering columns and what is their function?

Hydraulic steering columns are the mechanical link between the steering wheel and the hydrostatic steering unit (e.g. CSU, CSUS). They precisely transmit rotational movement and torque, allowing the steering system to be hydraulically assisted. This reduces the driver’s effort and enables safe, precise vehicle and machine control.

What materials are steering columns made of and how are they manufactured?

Steering columns are typically made of hardened steel or high-quality alloys. These materials provide high strength and corrosion resistance. Manufacturing involves precise turning, milling, and splining to ensure backlash-free, low-wear power transmission.

What loads can steering columns withstand?

  • Steering wheel torque: up to 24 daNm
  • Bending moment: up to 20 daNm
  • Axial load: up to 100 daNm

In which applications are hydraulic steering columns used?

Hydraulic steering columns are used in:

  • Commercial vehicles (trucks, buses)
  • Construction machinery (e.g. excavators)
  • Agricultural and forestry machinery
  • Forklifts
  • Ships

They increase operator comfort and safety, especially in heavy machinery.

What different versions of steering columns are available?

Steering columns are available in different lengths, diameters, and shaft types:

  • Lengths: e.g. 75 mm, 150 mm, 390 mm, 750 mm
  • Shaft designs: tapered (e.g. 1:20) or splined
  • Optional signal sensor connections (from 150 mm length)

What should be considered when selecting and installing a steering column?

The following points are essential when selecting and installing:

  • Appropriate length and diameter for the vehicle and steering unit
  • Load capacity for torque and bending moment
  • Compliance with relevant safety standards (e.g. TÜV, ISO)
  • From 150 mm length: additional support required
  • Installation with 4 bolts (3/8-16UNC or M10), tightening torque 3 ± 0.5 daNm

How are steering columns maintained and what is their service life?

Steering columns are low-maintenance and durable. Regular visual inspections for wear, damage, or looseness are necessary. Service life depends on load, operating environment, and maintenance. Proper installation and correct selection for the application ensure reliable use over many years.
