Product Description
The CARDONE 21-5485 Remanufactured Power Steering Pump is designed to restore OE steering performance while delivering improved durability and long-term reliability. Each OE design undergoes a thorough review to identify potential weaknesses, and enhancements are introduced wherever possible to strengthen overall performance.
All key components—including campacs and spool valves—are triple-tested to ensure dependable operation under real driving conditions. The pump is assembled with 100% new O-rings and premium-grade HNBR seals, which resist heat, fluid breakdown, and leakage more effectively than conventional seal materials. Precision-machined shafts eliminate premature seal wear and extend pump life.
Before release, every pump completes a full hydraulic efficiency test, verifying correct pressure output, bypass function, fluid flow, valve operation, steering effort, and noise compliance. As an OE-remanufactured component, it guarantees a precise vehicle fit.
CARDONE's earth-friendly remanufacturing process reduces raw material and energy usage by up to 80%, offering an environmentally responsible alternative to new parts.
