Stokes Pump Repair in Fontana
A tired Stokes pump rarely quits without warning — it loses flow, loses pressure or vacuum, runs noisy and hot, and only then stops the process behind it. We repair and rebuild Stokes pumps working in Stokes rotary piston vacuum pumps and boosters in heat-treat, coating and industrial vacuum service at our Fontana shop — strip, measure, renew the wear parts, reset internal clearances and test the finished pump so it goes back to work doing what it was built to do. Everything is done at 14166 Whittram Ave by the crew that quoted it, with no work farmed out.

Where Stokes pumps lose their edge
The pattern we find at teardown on Stokes units is rotary piston and slide-valve wear, oil-system fouling in heat-treat service, and booster timing wear in staged vacuum systems. Rather than swapping parts on suspicion, we measure first — rotor, vane, piston and wear-plate clearances where they apply, shaft runout, bearing condition, seal faces and housing wear — then quote the renewal the measurements actually justify. Machining and manufacture happen in-house, so a worn shaft, a scored housing bore or a discontinued wear part is a shop job here, not a reason to scrap the pump. Rebuilt pumps are assembled with new seals and bearings, clearances set to specification, and test-run — flow, pressure or vacuum checked against the duty — before they leave Fontana.

Frequently asked questions
Can an older Stokes rotary piston pump still be rebuilt?
Yes — older Stokes units are a specialty of the bench: pistons, slides and valves measured, worn parts manufactured if discontinued, and the pump tested to its rated blank-off vacuum.
Is my pump worth rebuilding or should I replace it?
If the housing, rotors and shaft are sound, a rebuild with renewed wear parts usually restores full performance for less than replacement — we measure first and tell you plainly which side of that line your pump is on.
