The BendPak ALS-7475-83 is the direct-replacement hydraulic hose for the BendPak lift it came off of — the genuine part, same fit and same working specification as the one already on your lift. Ordering the BendPak hydraulic hose from us gets you the OEM piece that matches the lift, not an aftermarket knock-off that is close but not the same.

Specifications

• Part number: ALS-7475-83
• Brand: BendPak
• Type: Genuine OEM hydraulic hose

A hydraulic lift that won't hold height is telling you something before it fails outright. Drift-down, a spongy feel, milky fluid — these are early warnings, and the cheap fix is now. Ignore them and a weeping seal becomes a scored barrel becomes a whole cylinder; a tired pump becomes a burned-up motor. Worse, a lift that sags under load is a safety problem, not just a maintenance one.

Seals and hoses age on two clocks at once: cycles and years. A cylinder seal wears from the miles the rod travels; a hose gets brittle just sitting in shop heat and cold. Run dirty fluid and you speed both up, because grit scores the barrel and the rod and shreds seals from the inside. Most lifts that pump every day start weeping a seal somewhere in the eight-to-fifteen year range.

Replacing your hydraulic hose

Replacing a power unit means confirming the voltage matches, killing power at the breaker, bleeding the hydraulic pressure, then transferring the lines and wiring to the new unit and refilling with the correct fluid. Getting the voltage and the fluid right is what separates a working swap from a paperweight. The complete procedure covers each step in order.

Find the right part for your lift

Landed here but not 100% sure it is your part? Grab the model and serial from the data plate and open our parts lookup for the visual breakdown — the manufacturer-style drawing with every item numbered so you can match yours exactly. Plate missing? our guide to finding your model number helps, and we identify lifts from photos every week if you would rather ask.

Signs of a hydraulic problem

Look under and around the whole loop for evidence, not just the obvious drip. Trace a puddle back uphill — fluid runs, so the leak is above where it pools. Check fittings, the reservoir seam, the pump-to-reservoir gasket, and the base of the cylinder. A weep that only shows under full pressure won't appear until you take the lift to max height and hold it.

Parts commonly replaced at the same time

The parts near a hydraulic failure are usually next in line — seals that are hardening, a hose that is cracking, fittings that seep. Do them together while the system is open and bled. We will match the seal kit, hose, and oil to your lift so you are not chasing the same leak in a month.

Hydraulic fluid

When you refill, use the right oil: ISO-32 hydraulic fluid on most lifts, or Dexron ATF on some older designs — never a blend of the two. Your installation manual lists the correct capacity for your specific lift, so fill to that spec and re-check the level after you have cycled and bled the system.

Safety notes

A hydraulic lift that drops or drifts almost always traces to air or a failed seal, both of which are preventable. Relieve pressure before opening anything, bleed until the stream runs solid, and never sign off a repair with the lift drifting even slightly at full height. Locks stay engaged while you work.

Before you order

Before ordering, confirm your lift's model and serial and, for a cylinder or hose, the exact length or fitting configuration — these change across production runs. If you only need to stop a leak, a seal kit may be the smarter buy than a whole cylinder; call and we will help you decide before you spend.

Not sure this fits? Here's how to check

Pull the number off your lift's model plate first — model and serial both. Manufacturers run mid-cycle revisions that keep the model name but change hardware, so two lifts with the same name on the column can take different parts. The serial is what removes the guesswork.

Second check: compare the old part against this listing before you order. Length, mounting pattern, and thread sizes tell most of the story. If anything doesn't line up, or if the old part is too worn or broken to measure, call us with photos — we work on these lifts every week and can usually confirm fit from a picture and the lift's serial faster than you can dig through a parts diagram.
