UNDERSTANDING OEM VS. AFTERMARKET PARTS: MAKING THE RIGHT CHOICE

UNDERSTANDING OEM VS. AFTERMARKET PARTS: MAKING THE RIGHT CHOICE

Making The Choice is Easy with TGT

When it comes to maintaining your construction equipment's performance, selecting the right parts is paramount. At Top Gear Tractor (TGT), we offer a choice between New OEM and New aftermarket parts, each with its unique characteristics. New OEM parts are direct from manufacturers like CAT, Volvo, or Deere. They bear brand labels, accurate part numbers, and meet original equipment specifications. In contrast, New aftermarket parts, while not branded, are engineered to the same rigorous standards as OEM components, often delivering comparable or even superior quality.

Quality assurance is a shared hallmark; vendors for our aftermarket parts adhere to the same stringent checks as OEM manufacturers. As for pricing, New OEM parts, although competitively priced below list rates, tend to be on the higher end. In contrast, New aftermarket parts offer significant cost savings, often costing 50% less than their OEM counterparts.

Both options come with a solid 1-year warranty, a testament to our confidence in their quality and durability. Availability is usually prompt, with most parts ready within 2-3 days. Even hard-to-find components can be sourced within 1-2 weeks through our global vendor network.

Whether you opt for OEM or aftermarket, expect seamless fitment when the correct part number is ordered. We guarantee precise compatibility for aftermarket parts, manufactured to OEM standards. Our track record showcases the reliability of aftermarket parts, with no warranty issues. Any challenges typically arise from incorrect part numbers provided by customers.

In summary, the choice between New OEM and New aftermarket parts hinges on your specific needs and budget. OEM parts offer brand alignment, while aftermarket parts deliver significant cost savings without compromising quality. At TGT, we stand by both options, ensuring your equipment operates at its best while considering your financial requirements. For personalized guidance, our dedicated team is ready to assist you in selecting the ideal parts for your equipment.
