Technicians, workshops managers, and service managers across Australia and New Zealand can look forward to having another comprehensive trailer parts catalogue available at their fingertips following the release of PACCAR Parts Trailer Parts Catalogue Volume 3.
PACCAR Parts Senior Product Manager Daryl Tonkin said the new catalogue focuses on all the products that a trailer uses, from suspension, to airbags, to springs, to fittings and fixtures, and all from the biggest and best name brands in the business.
“The 386-page volume is more comprehensive than you’ll find anywhere else and includes in-depth details of essential trailer parts from quality brands like Meritor, TRP, Hendrickson, SAF-Holland, York, Fuwa K Hitch and Transpec.
“PACCAR prides itself on being a one-stop shop for trailer and other truck-related products and we’re unique in being able to bring together all these different brands and their components in the one publication.
“With its detailed description and breakdowns of components, complete with part numbers that are in the PACCAR system, the catalogue is an essential resource for fleet managers and owner operators, and is designed to save them time and money by eliminating the need to call around to different suppliers.”
“Trailer Parts Catalogue volume three complements our two earlier volumes to create an even more comprehensive resource for customers who are repairing and maintaining their trailers,” adds PACCAR Parts Product Marketing Manager, Niels Holm.
“Each catalogue comprises details of key components in specific areas and volume three is all about suspension products – things like airbags, springs and shock absorbers. We’ve also included a lot of value-adds in each of the catalogues, like truck and trailer configuration guides.
“Volume three is focused predominantly on trailers because there’s roughly three times as many trailers as there are trucks on the road.
“So, by bringing all the suppliers into one catalogue it allows customers to look for their part irrespective of which brand of component they have. That’s key because otherwise the customer would have to go to the individual manufacturers’ catalogues to find that part. This brings it all into one convenient location.
“The catalogue also includes a comprehensive listing of dealerships where the parts are available and, if you know your part number you can search by that. An index at the rear of the book will direct you straight to the page where that part is located, including dimensions and technical details.”
