One library, endless possibilities

The Paro Component Library is a unique, encyclopaedic index of over 1 million hydraulic components and ISO 1219-1 standard symbols.

Featuring fully configured components from over 300 brands, the Paro Component Library allows you unparalleled options to choose the right component for your design.

From global manufacturers to niche experts, whoever the supplier, find the component you need to build your design.

Can’t find your component? Email us at library@paro.nl, and we’ll add it for you.


Search, find, create

Whether you need a simple symbol or a fully configured component, search by function, brand name, or manufacturing code.

Then, drag your selection onto your HydroSym canvas and start creating.

Fast, simple, effective.

Configure, test, learn

Configured components let you select every variation your design requires — from pressure ratings to spool types.

However your plans evolve, and however many times you need to alter your design, the Paro Component Library keeps your design flexible and complete.

Less admin, more design.


Link, pack, save

We’ve linked every component to the manufacturer's specifications, ordering codes and product sheets. 

From diagram to Bill of Materials to hose list, your components are fully configured.

With just a few clicks, you can create client-ready files. 

Your library, your way

Can’t find your component? No problem. We can help you in three simple ways.

However you wish to create your component, you have the option to add it to our library — we’d be honored to share it with our thousands of customers.

Here’s how it works:

1. Let us do it for you

We’ll create and configure your symbol or component, free of charge. Send us the specs at library@paro.nl, and we’ll make it for you.

2. Customize fast yourself

Can’t wait for our support team? Quickly find a similar component, drag it to your local library, make the changes you need, and save it to your library.

3. Start from scratch

Want to start from scratch? That’s easy, too. Our drawing tools make it simple for you to create.
