When it comes to reliability in hydraulics, Oilpath has set the standard for over 40 years. As the only Australian manufacturer of directional control valves, Oilpath Hydraulics continues to deliver world-class performance with a strong focus on innovation, quality, and industry-specific solutions.
Why Oilpath Stands Out
Hydraulic systems demand precision, durability, and adaptability. This is exactly where Oilpath hydraulics valves excel. By designing and manufacturing locally in South Australia, Oilpath not only supports Australian industry but also ensures products are built to withstand some of the harshest operating conditions in the world.
Their product portfolio includes:
- Oilpath directional control valves
- Oilpath control valves and custom hydraulic manifolds
- Monoblock spool valves, tipper truck valves, hoist check valves, and safety systems
- Hydraulic cartridges, coils, solenoid, relief, flow, lock, and pressure control valves
As trusted Oilpath distributors, Gerrard Hydraulics supplies their products to Perth, WA, and across Australia, ensuring operators can access the right hydraulic solutions when they need them most.
The Oilpath OP Series – Built for Performance
The Oilpath OP range is widely recognised across industries:
- Oilpath OP10 directional control valve: A reliable solution for medium-flow applications, with up to 4 spools and power beyond/closed centre options.
- Oilpath OP11 control valve: Compact and efficient, equipped with a HydraForce relief valve and hardened steel non-return check valve seat.
- Oilpath OP20 directional control valve: Offering up to 120 L/min flow, with individual load check valves on each spool for enhanced precision. Available in 1–5 spool configurations with multiple actuation and relief valve options.
For operators seeking Oilpath OP20 directional control valve parts, support and supply are available through Australian distributors, including Perth-based specialists.
