Hystat Systems Limited are leading specialists in the design and precision manufacture of custom fluid power solutions. Operating from our purpose-built facility in Slaithwaite, we provide high-performance cylinders, accumulators, and rotary actuators for the world’s most demanding industrial environments.
Whether you require a one-off bespoke design or a standard replacement, our team of time-served engineers combines decades of expertise with rigorous ISO 9001:2015 quality standards to ensure every component delivers long-term reliability.
We don’t just build hardware; we engineer solutions for industries where failure is not an option.
We have a wealth of experience in designing equipment for harsh salt-spray and high-pressure subsea conditions.
By utilizing high-grade stainless steel rods and marine-spec paint systems, we ensure maximum integrity for:
Built for high-cycle fatigue and extreme durability, our bolted-construction cylinders are the backbone of the UK’s primary industries:
Our manufacturing facility is equipped to handle heavy-duty engineering projects that few in the UK can match. We design to all major international codes, including Lloyds Register, DNV, ABS, and BV.

“Our expertise lies in the Bespoke. If a standard catalog item won’t solve your problem, our design team will.”
In-House Design: Full CAD/CAM design capabilities to meet specific mounting, space, or performance constraints.
Material Traceability: All materials are sourced from reputable, certified suppliers with full documentation available.
Maintenance & Repair: Beyond manufacture, we provide a complete strip-down, report, and refurbishment service for all makes of hydraulic equipment. Find out more about Maintenance & Repair here.
Strategic Location: Located in the heart of West Yorkshire’s engineering corridor, providing easy logistical access for UK-wide delivery.
We specialize in long-stroke applications, with the capability to design and manufacture cylinders with a single stroke in excess of 10 metres (12,000mm). Our Huddersfield facility is specifically equipped with the heavy-lifting and precision machining tools required for these large-scale projects.
Yes. Our design team is highly experienced in working with all major international design codes, including Lloyds Register, DNV, ABS, and BV. We provide full material traceability and certification for offshore, subsea, and marine applications where compliance is critical.
Absolutely. We provide a comprehensive strip-down and report service. Our engineers will assess the wear or failure points of your existing equipment (regardless of the original manufacturer) and provide a fixed-price quotation for refurbishment to “as-new” standards.
