In many applications, aftermarket parts are a great way to get quality parts and supplies at significant cost savings.
ROMCO carries a wide range of aftermarket parts sourced from reputable established aftermarket manufacturers that meet or exceed original OEM specifications. We can help you understand when you need an OEM part and when it’s okay to save money with an aftermarket equivalent.
Aftermarket parts are good solutions in several situations, including:
Routine consumables: Aftermarket options work well for fluids, filters, pads, and other materials designed to be used up and discarded over a short period of time.
Paving wear parts: The same goes for pavement wear parts. These components don’t always need to meet the tight tolerances specified by the OEM, and they can wear out quickly. Having an affordable replacement option can add up to big savings across your fleet.
Legacy equipment: When the OEM is no longer producing replacement parts for your equipment, getting OEM parts can be difficult—and expensive to the point that it only makes sense for show machines and museum pieces. In this case, aftermarket parts are the only good option to keep your working machine working affordably.
If you’re not sure whether an aftermarket part is a good choice in your situation, talk to a ROMCO expert. We have serviced enough machines so that we’ve seen the long-term impact of both parts, and we can tell you whether the aftermarket savings are worth the cost to your machine.
At ROMCO, we’ve survived in this business for over 65 years because we’re dedicated to the long-term success of our clients. Your success is our success, and that factors into all our recommendations. That goes for new equipment sales. It goes for maintenance and service recommendations. And it goes for parts recommendations.
We have access to service technicians who are brand-certified by equipment type and manufacturer, people who will know when you need OEM and when it’s okay to use an aftermarket part.
With our 16 locations across Texas and southern New Mexico, ROMCO is nearby, and we carry a wide selection of parts, making it likely that you can get your part locally. If we don’t have it at your local location, we can order it in. This can also help you get a hard-to-find OEM part so you don’t have to rely on aftermarket if that’s not what you want.
Please call, contact us, or visit your local ROMCO location in Texas or southern New Mexico today to see if we have the part you’re looking for.
