Tractor Power Steering Leaking Oil
Fix Leaks Effectively During Operation
If your tractor’s power steering system is leaking oil or the fluid level in the reservoir is dropping, the cause is usually aged seals inside the steering gear, orbitrol unit, or hydraulic lines. In particular, shaft seals and O-rings lose their elasticity over time due to pressure, temperature, and aging and no longer provide a proper seal.
With LecWec, you can restore the functionality of these seals directly during operation without removing the steering gear or hydraulic components.

How LecWec Works in Tractor Power Steering Systems
In tractor power steering systems, polymer seals inside the steering gear, orbitrol unit, and hydraulic valves keep the oil contained within the system. Due to continuous stress, pressure peaks, and aging, these seals lose their plasticizers over time. They become hard, shrink, and lose their sealing performance. This is exactly where LecWec takes effect during normal operation.
After being added, LecWec circulates through the hydraulic or power steering fluid and reaches all relevant sealing points within the system. The active formula is absorbed by the polymer seals and helps restore their original properties. The material becomes flexible again and fits tightly against the sealing surfaces. This closes leakage gaps at shafts and valves.
In practical use, this means that oil loss at the steering gear or orbitrol unit is significantly reduced or stopped, provided the cause is aged seals. Mechanically damaged components remain unaffected.
Only 3% of the total oil quantity.
LecWec is chlorine-free.

"I have to report positively that the level matches the oil... unbelievable. [...] I wouldn’t have believed that the steering gearbox would be sealed again after just under a week."

"...nothing was leaking anymore!!!
I am truly very satisfied. At first, I did not believe the product would work, but now I am completely convinced and also saved many hundreds of euros!"

Oil leak at the cylinder base gasket
Verified review (Learn more)"I did not believe it at first, but your product is excellent! [...] I ordered just one can and everything is sealed already, even though you recommend 2 cans, meaning 200 ml, for 6 liters of oil. Many thanks!"

Oil leak at the steering rack
Verified review (Learn more)"There was always a small puddle of oil collecting underneath the vehicle. I added 100 ml of LecWec to around 4 liters of oil. Since then, I have driven many miles and was surprised to find that there was no more oil on the ground at all."

How to Seal a Tractor Power Steering System in 3 Steps
If your power steering system is leaking oil, this is usually noticeable through oil-moist steering gears, oil drops at hydraulic lines, or a dropping fluid level. In many cases, aged shaft seals or O-rings inside the system are the cause. Instead of removing components immediately, you can address the issue directly within the system.
Step 1: Check the fluid level in the power steering system and determine the total fluid volume.
Step 2: Add LecWec directly to the hydraulic or power steering reservoir at a ratio of 3% of the total oil volume.
Step 3: Operate the tractor normally and steer multiple times – the additive will circulate throughout the entire system.
The polymer seals absorb the active formula, become flexible again, and fit tightly against the sealing surfaces once more. This reduces or stops oil leaks at typical weak points. You avoid downtime and unnecessary disassembly.
Tractor Power Steering Leaking Oil? These 5 Tips Help
Identify the Leak Source Precisely
Clean the steering gearbox, orbitrol, and hydraulic lines and observe them during operation. This helps determine exactly where the oil is leaking.
Pay Attention to System Pressure
High pressure spikes place additional stress on the seals. Check the hydraulic settings and overall system condition.
Inspect Hydraulic Lines and Fittings
Leaks often occur at connections or fittings. Inspect these areas first before assuming internal component failure.
Restore Seals Directly in the System
The power steering system uses shaft seals and O-rings that harden over time. This is exactly where LecWec can restore sealing performance.
Use LecWec Correctly and Monitor the Results
Dose LecWec at 3% of the total oil volume and operate the tractor normally. Then inspect the known leak points. In many cases, the oil loss is significantly reduced or stopped completely.
