A functioning braking system is the absolute foundation of any vehicle's safety, especially in the transportation and logistics industry, where reliability over long distances is paramount. Managing a fleet of trucks, however, requires constant optimization of maintenance costs.
Should you choose between safety and savings? Hardtruck , a brand specializing in professional brake caliper reconditioning , proves that factory quality can go hand in hand with savings of up to several dozen percent.
Professional remanufacturing isn't just a surface repair. It's an advanced technological process that restores components to their original technical parameters .
The key element of the entire process is the core —the main part serving as the basis for further work. Thanks to precise procedures and the use of proven components, the reconditioned caliper provides exactly the same functional properties as a brand-new product.
To ensure the final product matches the quality of factory parts, the rebuild process is divided into four reliable stages:
Disassembly and diagnostics - detailed check of the technical condition of the component.
Sandblasting and painting - thorough cleaning of the body and application of a protective coating.
Parts replacement and assembly - replacing worn-out parts with new, proven components and precisely assembling the whole.
Finished brake caliper - carrying out the necessary measurements and quality checks before putting the part into operation.
The decision to purchase remanufactured components brings a number of specific business and ecological benefits :
Purchasing a remanufactured component is significantly cheaper than purchasing a brand new part. Remanufacturing can reduce repair costs by as much as 40–70% compared to a new component.
For truck fleet owners, this means real, noticeable financial savings while maintaining the full efficiency of the braking system .
The belief that new parts are superior to remanufactured parts is a myth. Unless the remanufacturing is performed by a professional brand, Hardtruck remanufactured calipers provide identical performance parameters to new components.
and their reliability is confirmed by a full 18-month warranty .
Using remanufactured cores actively contributes to the circular economy. This process significantly reduces the amount of metal waste and the energy consumption required to produce brand new parts.
Customers who choose these products make a real contribution to reducing their carbon footprint.
Cooperation in the field of component regeneration is based on a simple and transparent purchase and sales system implemented by the Autos network.
The Autos network purchases and sells calipers from leading manufacturers: Wabco, Meritor, Haldex, Knorr.
The process of replacing the old caliper with a regenerated element is carried out in several clear steps:
Purchase and Valuation: The foundation of our customer relationship is a reliable assessment . A team of experienced mechanics identifies the technical condition and real value of the calipers supplied. This ensures customers receive a fair price for the parts they remanufacture.
Purchase with a deposit: A refundable deposit is added to the purchase price of a reconditioned caliper, the amount of which depends on the specific part model.
Settlement and Refund: Autos settles the deposit for returned calipers in accordance with the terms and conditions of the remanufactured parts manufacturers. Once the old caliper is delivered to Autos and passed technical inspection, the deposit is refunded to the customer .
Important condition: A necessary condition for the refund of the deposit is that the body of the old caliper is in good condition.
Regeneration of Hardtruck brake calipers in the Autos network is a solution combining the highest quality of workmanship, complete safety confirmed by an 18-month warranty and significant savings on the service budget.
If you want to reduce your fleet operating costs by up to 70% while caring for the environment, take advantage of our caliper regeneration and purchase program.
