Product Description
The CARDONE 21-5498 Remanufactured Power Steering Pump is engineered for superior reliability and OE-grade performance restoration. Every original design is evaluated for potential enhancements to strengthen durability, and improvements are implemented where beneficial. Each pump is fully tested to ensure consistent, long-lasting steering performance.
Critical components—including campacs and spool valves—are triple-tested to ensure dependable functionality. All units are assembled with 100% new O-rings and premium-grade HNBR seals, providing enhanced resistance to high-temperature deterioration and preventing leakage. Precision-machined shafts eliminate premature seal wear and extend pump service life.
Every unit undergoes a complete hydraulic efficiency evaluation, verifying correct pressure output, bypass operation, fluid flow, steering effort, valve response, and noise performance. As an OE-remanufactured component, it guarantees perfect fitment and easy installation.
CARDONE’s environmentally conscious remanufacturing process reduces raw material and energy usage by up to 80%, making it a more sustainable alternative to new production.
