Cetop Valves

Standardised, Interchangeable Hydraulic Control

Cetop valves are modular hydraulic components designed to form circuits within hydraulic systems. Thanks to their standardised dimensions and mounting interfaces, Cetop valves are interchangeable worldwide – meaning products from different manufacturers can often be swapped directly without modification. This makes them one of the most widely used valve types in industrial and mobile hydraulics.

At Hydraulics Online, we supply valves from a wide range of global manufacturers, with expert advice to help you select the right size and configuration for your system.

Cetop valves conform to international standards set by the Comité Européen des Transmissions Oléohydrauliques et Pneumatiques (CETOP). These standards define the dimensions, porting, and mounting patterns of hydraulic valves, ensuring compatibility across brands.

Common Cetop valve sizes include:

Cetop 03 (NG6) – compact valves for lower flow rates
Cetop 05 (NG10) – larger valves for higher flow and pressure requirements
Cetop 07 (NG16) – larger valves for higher flow and pressure requirements

Cetop 08 (NG25) – larger valves for higher flow and pressure requirements

Cetop 10 (NG32) – larger valves for higher flow and pressure requirements

Other sizes are available for specialised applications, but Cetop 03 and 05 are the most widely used in industry.

Global interchangeability – standardised dimensions allow cross-brand compatibility
Modular design – easy integration into hydraulic manifolds and stacks
Wide functionality – available for directional, pressure, and flow control applications
Reduced downtime – quick replacement without system redesign
Cost-effective maintenance – standardisation simplifies sourcing and spares management

These advantages make Cetop valves a cornerstone of modern hydraulic system design.

Are Cetop valves interchangeable across brands? Yes – as long as they conform to the same Cetop size standard, they can be swapped directly.

Which Cetop size do I need? Cetop 03 (NG6) suits lower flow rates, while Cetop 05 (NG10) is used for higher flows. We’ll help you identify the correct size for your system.

Do Cetop valves cover all hydraulic functions? Yes – they are available in directional, pressure, load-holding and flow control formats, making them highly versatile.
