A hose failure will not only result in unscheduled downtime, but can also have potentially fatal safety implications.
A wide range of genuine Komatsu hydraulic hoses are now assembled exclusively by Pirtek and distributed through both the extensive Komatsu and Pirtek branch network. Using genuine parts is the best way to maintain the reliability of any Komatsu machine – minimising downtime, maximising profitability and increasing the operators safety.
This partnership delivers genuine Komatsu hydraulic hoses with;
• Competitive pricing
• Industry leading six-month warranty
• Delivery within 24 hours for 90% of orders, with customers in remote locations serviced within 72 hours
• Working with Pirtek has made using genuine hoses both cost effective and time efficient - so you can afford to replace your hoses before it’s too late.
We have more than 20,000 product numbers in our hydraulic hose database, with our design engineers carefully selecting the right hose to meet machine performance and specification.
Genuine Komatsu hoses are manufactured with even placement of rubber material and metal wire, ensuring the hose will reach its product design life with correct use and maintenance practices.
Non-genuine hoses often will not have even placement of the rubber material and metal braids, and thus can be very prone to leaking or bursting, resulting in shorter life.
As a result, you cannot be guaranteed of the correct specification of hose and fittings for your machine.
If the hose has guarding, or has deteriorated, they may also not be able to identify the correct operating pressure.
In a worst-case situation, the non-genuine product may not meet Komatsu equipment working pressures and may catastrophically fail soon after replacement.
