Local Entrepreneur Opens Third PIRTEK Fluid Transfer Solutions Service Center in Detroit
(Sterling Heights, MI) -- Since opening PIRTEK Madison Heights (Oakland County) in 1999 and PIRTEK Westland (Wayne County) in 2004, owner Eli Dorfman and his team have seen the positive impact of PIRTEK's services on local businesses - so much so they have opened their third Detroit Fluid Transfer Solutions Service Center in Sterling Heights earlier this week.
The site at 40020 Mound Road in Sterling Heights was chosen very carefully for its location in the heart of a major industrial area.  "We chose the location of PIRTEK Sterling Heights because many of our present and potential customers cross through that area daily," said Mr. Dorfman.  "Our inspiration was to save these customers time and money by moving closer to them."
PIRTEK Sterling Heights will operate four on-site hose service vehicles, thus increasing the number of PIRTEK's on-site hose service vehicles serving Metro Detroit to fourteen.  This Center will also provide over-the-counter service to existing and new customers within this area.  Oliver Romano and Ed Cushing, both veterans in the fluid power industry, will direct operations at the Center.
Each PIRTEK Center supplies the area with ETA 1 Hour On-Site Hose Service and also carries specialized equipment such as tube and pipe benders and flaring tools for complex jobs that involve tube and pipe installations.  In addition, PIRTEK carries a wide range of metric fittings, ball valves, filtration products and automotive products. 
 "The PIRTEK team in Detroit has decades of combined experience within the hydraulics industry and they are true professionals when it comes to customer service," says Gwyn O'Kane, Vice President of Franchise Development at PIRTEK USA.  "At PIRTEK, our mission isto provide our diverse group of customers with a comprehensive portfolio of fluid transfer solution products and services. We build long-term relationships with our customers by consistently providing cost effective, quality products and services, technical knowledge, and trained personnel via our network of local service centers and mobile sales and service vehicles. The addition of this new location and additional vehicles demonstrates our further commitment to providing the best possible service to customers in Detroit."
 

Rockledge, Florida-based PIRTEK is the world's leading service provider of ETA 1 Hour On-Site Hose Replacement. PIRTEK offers a 24 hour, 7 day service that serves almost every facet of industry including construction, manufacturing, transportation, agriculture and engineering among others. When an equipment breakdown occurs, it often results in costly delays in time and labor before the proper replacement hose is located and installed, but with PIRTEK our vans carry the component parts necessary to manufacture hose assemblies on site. Hose and fittings can also be purchased over-the-counter at PIRTEK's national network of service centers that serve as home bases to its mobile fleet. There are nearly 40 PIRTEK service centers nationwide and over 170 PIRTEK mobile service vans serving major metropolitan markets throughout the country.


 Being involved in the construction or manufacturing industry, we're certain that you have experienced the frustration of hours, or even days, in lost production as the result of a failed hydraulic hose. This frustration is compounded by the cost of clean up, repair and the potential safety hazard that a failed hose can cause.

  At Pirtek, we are well aware of the problems faced by these industries. Pirtek provides on-site hose replacement 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with a one hour ETA. We have a fleet of mobile service units staffed by trained technicians. Our goal is to save our customers costly downtime. With over 25 years experience serving various companies and more than 1000 mobile units worldwide, we know what it takes to get our customers up and running ASAP.

  Each mobile service unit is stocked with an extensive range of hoses, fittings, adapters, etc. We specialize in metrics and are known for having the oddball fittings that others do not carry. Having a wide range of inventory on each mobile service unit and the support of our hose service centers, we make it ideal for hydraulic plumbing and re-plumbing work(preventative maintenance). In addition, we are now offering tube bending and fabricating services that includes:

  • Steel and stainless steel tubing
  • Low and high pressure assemblies
  • Wide range of sizes available, standard: ¼" – 1½", metric: 6mm – 42mm
  • Welded and solder tube assemblies
  • Mobile on-site service available

  With our unique hose tagging system we are able to provide accurate measure of life cycle performance and duplicate the hose with the information contained on the tag itself. We also provide a Hose Survey Process utilizing the tagging system.

  If you have any further questions, or need additional information, please contact us.
