Buying heavy equipment parts is a key aspect of maintaining your machines and keeping your operation working. It can also be a major expense for your business. One of the best strategies for keeping your costs under control while also ensuring you have high quality components for your equipment is to choose remanufactured options.

What are remanufactured parts?

Remanufacturing is a process that starts with a worn out or damaged assembly, then returns it to like new condition in terms of performance and reliability. When parts are remanufactured, they are taken apart, cleaned, inspected for quality, re-engineered, and rebuilt with new individual components to meet OEM specifications. They are less expensive than OEM options, but they meet the same high standards. Typical examples of reman parts include engines, transmissions, torque converters, power shuttles, A/C compressors, injection pumps, alternators, and others.

Why use reman parts?

There are several key benefits of opting for remanufactured parts for your heavy equipment:

How to choose remanufactured parts?

No matter which type of heavy equipment parts you purchase, it’s important to work with a reputable, authorized dealer. They will ensure that the components you buy actually fit your equipment, meet OEM specifications, and protect your machine’s warranty—all of which translate into less downtime and lower long term expenses for your business. Authorized dealers and remanufacturers will follow the right disassembly and re-assembly processes, correctly clean individual components, use the highest quality materials, and properly test the part once the process is complete.

When choosing remanufactured parts, we recommend avoiding cheap options. Some parts are labeled as remanufactured but are actually only lightly refurbished or cleaned up. You need the remanufacturer to guarantee that the part meets OEM specifications before buying it. If parts numbers and tolerances differ from your original component, then a reman part might need costly modifications to fit or may not perform adequately.
