Power Steering & Rack Tester - Lang

The Lang TU22A Power Steering & Rack Tester is a professional hydraulic diagnostic tool engineered for efficient and accurate evaluation of power steering systems across most passenger cars and light-duty trucks. This specialized hydraulic steering rack load tester enables technicians to simulate real operating conditions, confirming pump output, identifying system restrictions, and verifying repair integrity. It takes the guesswork out of power steering analysis by precisely identifying defective power steering pumps and gears, as well as kinked or clogged lines.

Key Features

• Comprehensive Hydraulic Assessment: Accurately measures system pressure under load, providing a true assessment of power steering pump performance and rack-and-pinion condition in realistic driving scenarios. This unit functions effectively as a hydraulic steering rack load tester.
• Targeted Fault Isolation: Facilitates rapid isolation of faults, differentiating between issues originating from the power steering pump, hoses, control valves, or the rack-and-pinion unit itself.
• Leak and Restriction Detection: Pinpoints internal leaks, pressure drops, and line restrictions that contribute to common complaints such as hard steering, excessive noise, or intermittent assist. This robust steering rack diagnostic equipment identifies problems quickly.
• Professional-Grade Construction: Built as robust steering rack diagnostic equipment for daily shop use, featuring durable hoses, precise fittings, and a reliable, easy-to-read gauge component suited for typical passenger vehicles and light trucks. The dual-scale gauge records pressure from 0-2000 PSI and 0-140 bar.
• Consistent Diagnostic Readings: Delivers repeatable results, ideal for establishing baseline performance prior to service and confirming successful repairs post-component replacement, making it a reliable hydraulic steering rack testing machine.

Applications

Utilize the Lang TU22A to:

• Diagnose complaints of hard steering, noisy pumps, fluid aeration, or insufficient assist.
• Verify power steering pump output pressure and overall system performance under load.
• Evaluate rack-and-pinion units for internal leakage, sticking, or binding, functioning as a complete hydraulic steering rack testing machine.
• Confirm proper operation following replacement of pumps, hoses, or steering racks.
• Support pre-purchase or post-repair inspections on various passenger cars and light-duty trucks.
