Hydraulic Pumps and Motors
Hydraulic systems rely on two essential components to generate and use power, hydraulic pumps and motors. Whether you’re designing a new hydraulic system or replacing existing equipment, choosing the right pump or motor is critical to ensuring performance, efficiency, and longevity.
At Hydraulic Megastore, we stock a wide selection of hydraulic pumps and motors, including gear pumps, piston pumps, and hydraulic motors suitable for light-duty, heavy-duty, and high-pressure applications. With fast UK delivery and expert advice, we help businesses and engineers source the right parts, first time.
What Are Hydraulic Pumps and Motors?
Hydraulic pumps and motors work together to create and transmit power within a hydraulic system:
- A hydraulic pump converts mechanical energy (from an engine or motor) into hydraulic energy by pressurising fluid.
- A hydraulic motor does the opposite, turning pressurised hydraulic fluid into mechanical movement (such as rotation or torque).
Together, they allow for powerful, precise control of machines used across countless industries, from farming and construction to manufacturing and marine systems.
Our Range of Hydraulic Pumps
We offer a wide variety of pumps to suit different flow rates, pressure requirements, and mounting types. The most common types include:
Gear Pumps
Gear pumps are among the most widely used hydraulic pumps due to their simple design and reliable performance. They are perfect for fixed displacement applications and are highly resistant to contamination.
Features of gear pumps:
- Compact and cost-effective
- Quiet operation
- Ideal for mobile and industrial hydraulic systems
- Suitable for pressures up to 250 bar (depending on model)
Available in aluminium or cast iron, with various shaft and mounting options.
Piston Pumps
Piston pumps offer high efficiency and are ideal for high-pressure applications. Available in both axial and radial formats, they’re commonly used in demanding environments where consistent power output is critical.
Benefits of piston pumps:
- High-pressure performance (up to 400 bar+)
- Variable displacement options available
- Superior efficiency and control
- Suited for heavy-duty mobile equipment and industrial machines
Whether you’re operating a hydraulic press, crane, or injection moulding machine, piston pumps deliver the power and reliability needed for challenging jobs.
Our Range of Hydraulic Motors
Hydraulic motors turn hydraulic fluid pressure into mechanical output, usually rotary motion. They are used in machinery such as winches, conveyors, mixers, augers, and track drives.
We supply a wide range of hydraulic motors. Each motor is built to industry-standard specifications and can be matched with compatible pumps, hoses, and valves for complete hydraulic assemblies.
Typical Applications for Hydraulic Pumps and Motors
Our pumps and motors are trusted in systems across a wide range of industries:
- Agriculture: Powering sprayers, balers, and loaders
- Construction: Used in diggers, crushers, and lifting gear
- Marine: Winch systems, steering, and anchor control
- Industrial manufacturing: Machine tools, presses, conveyors
- Mining and quarrying: Crushers, drills, and screening equipment
- Material handling: Forklifts, compactors, and scissor lifts
No matter your sector, we’ve got a pump or motor that’s ready to perform under pressure.

- Operating pressure (bar or PSI)
- Mounting style and shaft configuration
- System compatibility (oil type, connection sizes, valve types)
- Fixed or variable displacement
If you’re unsure, we’ll be happy to recommend options based on your system requirements, whether you’re replacing a worn unit or building a new setup from scratch.
