Model Hydraulics

Model Hydraulics

Technology with Real Function

There are moments in model building when everything comes together: the structure is in place, the components are mounted, and then the excavator arm lifts – slowly, powerfully, and with precise control. Hydraulics in model building means more than just movement. It’s the interplay of pressure, precision, and reliability that brings machines to life. At GHW Modelbau, you'll find a deep, functionally coordinated range of hydraulic components – ideal for functional models in 1:14, 1:8, and beyond.

For Models with Real Function – Hydraulics by Premacon

Whether you're working on an entry-level project or a custom build: we offer technically refined, cohesive, and ready-to-use hydraulic components. All parts are interchangeable, precisely manufactured, and designed to withstand real-world loads in scale.

Are you planning a new model or looking to upgrade an existing system? We’re happy to offer personal advice – with conviction and many years of experience.

Hydraulic Cylinders & Rotary Actuators: Controlled Power in Scale

When pressure becomes movement, you need cylinders that work precisely, even under full load and with fine control. Our selection of hydraulic cylinders, telescopic cylinders, and rotary actuators covers various lengths, piston diameters, and construction types. That way, you'll find exactly the right components for your models – from dump trucks and excavators to wheel loaders and special-purpose vehicles.

Accessories such as cylinder eyes, mounting hardware, or cylinder kits for custom builds are also available.

Hydraulic Pumps & Tanks: Where Reliability Builds Pressure

No pump, no volume flow. No tank, no closed system. Our hydraulic pumps for model building stand out with quiet operation, consistent performance, and durable sealing systems – ideal for continuous use in functional models.

The matching hydraulic tanks are available in various sizes and materials, tailored to specific models and pump capacities. Integrated return systems and filter screens ensure maximum operational safety.

Valves & Manifolds: Control at Your Fingertips

Fine control movements, exact positioning, or synchronized motion: with our hydraulic valves and manifolds, you stay in control. Whether as manual valve, solenoid valve, or multi-way manifold block – at GHW Modelbau you’ll find the right solutions for complex control tasks.

Our model hydraulics range is completed by hydraulic manifolds that cleanly separate or intelligently combine different circuits.

Hydraulic Fittings & Connectors: Tight, Secure, Durable

Anyone who builds hydraulic systems knows: every detail matters. That’s why we offer a wide range of hydraulic connectors, quick couplings, hose fittings, as well as reducers and elbows.

All fittings are tailored for miniature hydraulics, with precise sealing surfaces, constant sealing force, and high compatibility with other systems. Adapters and custom solutions are also available.

Hoses & Accessories: Flexible & Pressure-Resistant

Our hydraulic hoses are lightweight, pressure-stable, and kink-resistant – ideal for tight spaces and moving parts. They’re available in various lengths, diameters, and with matching connection sets.

The range is complemented by a wide selection of hydraulic accessories, including filters, pressure gauges, sealants, and shaft seals – everything you need for a durable, low-maintenance system.
