TRW Aftermarket has announced that it now offers a full and complete OE quality remanufactured programme of Heavy Commercial Vehicle (HCV) air brake calipers under the TRW Proequip brand.

In line with the businesses first to market ethos, the range will be continually developed.

TRW’s HCV channel marketing manager, Dennis Christ said: “The business has been manufacturing and remanufacturing calipers to exacting OE standards for passenger cars for many years.

“Now, drivers of HCV vehicles will benefit from TRW’s vast and unrivalled experience.

“We are in a privileged position of having extensive access to the technologies that sit behind our parts; and we use all this knowledge and experience to provide the World’s VMs and the IAM with remanufactured parts that are quite simply, as new.”

Stringent core acceptance criteria, disassembly and remanufacturing procedures – combined with 100 per cent end of line testing – results in a part that performs exactly the way the vehicle manufacturer intended.

Protecting the environment

Dennis added: “At TRW, we take our responsibility towards protecting our environment very seriously, and implement green thinking strategies wherever possible.

“The remanufacture of automotive parts is a growing global business.

“It reduces cost, waste and CO2 emissions and is often the only aftermarket alternative for older vehicles.

“In terms of energy consumption, remanufacturing uses only 20 per cent of the energy used to produce a new part.

“Based on 2011 automotive remanufacturing production figures, we saved 5.000 tons of CO2 which is equivalent to 22.270.000 kilo meters driven or 86.000 Truckloads.”

In addition to industry standard checks, when assessing actuator functionality, TRW tests that both brake pads move simultaneously and checks that the sensor indicator is performing correctly.

In addition to providing its customers with the most cost effective solutions, supplying the complete package gives TRW the edge.

Saving time, labour and cost, each HCV caliper comes complete with all necessary accessories and fitting instructions.
