Porsgrunn Steering Gear Pump Type L3ME 52/85 is a high-precision, OEM-grade hydraulic pump engineered specifically for steering systems in marine and mobile equipment. With its exact type designation “L3ME 52/85,” this pump guarantees seamless compatibility and traceability within Porsgrunn steered assemblies. Designed to deliver dependable, smooth hydraulic performance, it is ideal for steering gear units aboard ships, offshore vessels, tugs, and specialized vehicles where responsive handling and system integrity are critical.
Crafted around a robust gear mechanism, the L3ME 52/85 features precision-machined rotors and shafts enclosed within a durable housing that resists corrosion, shock, and vibration common in marine environments. With a displacement tailored to steering gear requirements, the pump provides consistent flow and controlled outlet pressure to ensure fluid-actuated steering rams respond smoothly—even under load. Tight internal clearances minimize leakage and noise, contributing to superior volumetric efficiency and operator comfort.
The durable pump body, typically constructed from high-strength cast iron or bronze, offers excellent structural stability and fatigue resistance, making it well-suited to continuous duty in harsh conditions. Integrated ports and mounting flanges conform to standardized specifications, facilitating drop-in replacement during retrofits or new equipment assembly. Self-lubrication and robust seal configurations further enhance reliability and reduce maintenance intervals.
Installation and serviceability are user-friendly thanks to modular components such as replaceable shafts, bearings, and seals. This modularity ensures that service teams can efficiently refurbish the pump without full reconditioning of bulk components. Whether used as part of fresh builds or maintenance overhauls, the Porsgrunn L3ME 52/85 steering gear pump provides reliable steering control, long service life, and operational safety—making it a trusted choice for professionals seeking durable hydraulic performance in steering systems.
