Unveiling the Strain: Hairline Fracture in a Hammelmann HDP 172 Ultra-High-Pressure Pump

More from RGL

We take a real pride in our work which is why clients keep comping back. But don’t just take our word for it – take a look at some of our recently completed and ongoing projects.

Take a look at this Hammelmann HDP 172 ultra-high-pressure pump with a hairline fracture inside! Built to tackle extreme conditions, it operates at pressures up to 3000 bar (43,500 psi) with a flow rate of 27 l/min at that pressure.

Powered by a robust 170 kW motor, it handles immense forces daily. Hairline fractures can occur due to fatigue, material stress, or a pressure spike beyond the part’s limits.

RGL are the UK’s leading interface between water jetting technology and the job to be done.
