Refurbishing key components of a reciprocating compressor is an economical alternative to new part replacement. Equally important for machines supporting critical processes, the turnaround time for repairs can be significantly shorter than acquisition times for new parts.
Cook Compression provides cylinder and power-end repair services for all major reciprocating compressors, with unmatched expertise in high-pressure compressor applications. Where reconditioning is not feasible, Cook manufactures quality replacement parts.
From reconditioning services for compressor valves, packing cases, rods, pistons and cylinders, to expert repairs for connecting rods, crossheads and distance pieces, Cook Compression does it all.
