Intelligent power management company Eaton announced its Mobility Group has added its Advantage® series clutch, the best-selling clutch in North America, to its remanufactured product portfolio. Eaton remanufactures thousands of transmissions and clutches annually to maximize the reuse of materials, which keeps them out of landfills, saves energy, reduces emissions and waste.
The remanufactured Advantage clutches, which feature a unique strap drive intermediate plate design only available from Eaton, allow customers to choose the latest OE specification at a lower price point. The clutches will be offered in seven part numbers to cover the majority of heavy-duty applications and will include both self-adjust and manual adjust models.
“By adding our popular North American-made Advantage clutch to our line of remanufactured components we are offering our customers a more sustainable product that reduces the amount of material going to landfills,” said Tim Bauer, vice president, Aftermarket, Eaton’s Mobility Group. “This is just another step in our commitment to the environment and offering our customers the products they demand for all vehicle life cycles.”
Eaton’s remanufacturing business recovers product cores from customers across North America and returns them to like-new performance. The intent of the remanufacturing business is to maximize component reuse while providing uncompromised performance. Eaton remanufactured Advantage clutches conform with the “Manufactured Again” certification process, which is defined by the MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers organization as “manufacturing that is sustainable by definition and responsible by design.” As a member of MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers, Eaton will feature the Manufactured Again certification logo on its clutch boxes.
“Remanufactured products maintain the same performance characteristics and provide customers of Eaton’s remanufactured product portfolio with a cost-effective solution while offering a sustainability advantage,” Bauer said. “In addition, remanufactured options carry market competitive warranties and provide superior performance for aging trucks on their late-life clutch replacement.”
All factory remanufactured products are backed by Eaton’s Roadranger sales and service network, the nation’s leading support system for drivetrain components that provides unequaled protection, support, and training from experienced professionals.
