About Dr. Breit GmbH
Dr. Breit GmbH is a family-owned, medium-sized manufacturer based in Heiligenhaus specializing in the development and production of water-hydraulic and oil-hydraulic systems and valves. The company manufactures solenoid valves, releasable and double-releasable check valves, shuttle valves, quick exhaust valves, pressure switches, regulators, flow control valves, line-break valves, control blocks and valves for mining – many with ATEX or IECEx certification for explosion protection. Production is equipped with modern CNC lathes and machining centers; the level of in-house manufacturing is 90 percent, which enables short delivery times and flexibility. Production is also carried out as single-piece manufacturing to customer requirements, preferably in stainless steel, aluminium, brass and steel. Customers come from industries such as mining and the gas/natural gas industry as well as from applications in hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
