If you have a new part that you would like us to evaluate and produce, then we will work with you to establish a timeline for evaluation and, if approved, production.

What does your process to providing quality parts look like?
What does your process to providing quality parts look like?
We work with superior suppliers that either already make the item that is new to us, or help us reverse engineer a new item, from a customer’s sample, which allows us to match the specifications of the item. When in doubt, we make the item thicker, stronger, more durable or in a superior material to ensure a matched or superior function of the OEM.
When we receive our prototypes, we precisely measure to ensure matching specifications of all critical parameters. Then, we work with our customers to “try-before-you-buy,” or in some situations, free samples, to have the customer test. We follow up with the customer to see if we got it right the first time, or do what is necessary working with the customer and supplier to ensure the right fit of the item going forward. Once we go into production, we continue to match supplier production runs to our stock or samples to ensure that we provide the same, consistent items every order.
