SACHS: Quality, performance and reliability

OE quality

SACHS products are manufactured from high-quality materials and reflect the state of the art. They stand for high performance and reliability. This is why numerous well-known automotive manufacturers equip their vehicles with SACHS products: Every year, more than 10 million new vehicles equipped with SACHS dampers and shock absorbers roll off the production line.

Moreover, SACHS offers high-quality clutches for original equipment manufacturers and the spare-parts market.

Quality across Borders

SACHS offers products for various fields of application that cover almost all vehicle types. This applies to the European as well as the Asian vehicle market. Today, in Europe alone, the SACHS spare-parts portfolio includes shocks and dampers for more than 38 million Asian vehicles of various manufacturers. This is reassuring for trade partners, workshops and vehicle owners who can count on SACHS quality for a wide range of models.

TRW: Setting the standards for safety and quality

TRW is the world leader in OE quality automotive safety products and expertise in braking and suspension. TRW branded products cover 98% of the European vehicle parc and are legendary for their engineering quality and innovative design – and being famously well-tested.

More efficient combustion engines, hybrid- or purely electric drives require modular and scalable solutions for the braking system. The TRW-branded Electric Brake Booster (EBB) uses a special electronic system to provide improved brake actuation: replacing the vacuum brake boosters and, if necessary, the vacuum pump with its associated cables, sensors, switches and control units.

With this TRW system, ZF Aftermarket offers a genuine OE innovation at an early stage, which not only meets high comfort requirements and safety standards, but also supports the recovery of braking energy and thus the range of purely electric vehicles. A software function also ensures that the vehicle is held securely in parking mode by the electric parking brake, meaning that a mechanical parking brake can be dispensed with.

Wabco: Leading commercial vehicle technologies

ZF’s comprehensive WABCO product and service portfolio is designed to maximize vehicle uptime and reduce cost-per-mile at every stage of the service lifecycle. We offer fleets, workshops and distributors a comprehensive range of spare parts, tools, services and digital solutions for commercial vehicles – enabling a safer, greener and leaner transport industry. Breakthrough innovations for advanced driver assistance, braking, stability control, suspension, transmission automation and aerodynamics for the world’s commercial truck, bus, trailer, car and off-highway manufacturers are connected with the brand name Wabco.

The Wabco solutions for the aftermarket are always customer-centric, resource-saving, and cost-effective. When for example commercial vehicles come to the workshop with a defective ABS sensor, a specific version of this part has to be ordered, which may not be in stock at the dealer. A modular ABS sensor concept which counteracts this problem has been developed for independent workshops. Once the modular concept is installed on the vehicle, only the defective component needs to be replaced, which significantly speeds up the repair process, reduces downtime and lowers costs. 

LEMFÖRDER: A pioneering spirit and a passion for detail.

As a trusted partner of over 50 vehicle manufacturers worldwide, LEMFÖRDER is the number one brand in OE steering and chassis components, and has been a leader in developing innovative PC, LCV, CV and off-road chassis technology for over 70 years.

Up to 70 different individual parts are installed in a steering system and in the suspension technology of a modern car or van - for the greatest possible safety and maximum comfort. Since chassis and steering technology are safety-relevant parts, they are subject to the greatest care during design, manufacturing and assembly. The LEMFÖRDER brand stands also for a comprehensive range of products and spare parts for trucks and buses. We manufacture reliable components for axle suspension, suspension, stabilization and steering for trucks and buses. All LEMFÖRDER products are manufactured in the same quality as the original equipment manufacturers’ – for increased road safety.

Suspension and steering parts should be checked regularly, as they play a decisive role in the safe handling of a car. If a defect is found, for example in the ball joints or rubber bearings, these must be completely replaced with new ones. n order to provide the best possible support to workshops, ZF Aftermarket continuously expands its range of spare parts in the suspension and steering area, including a wide variety of rubber-to-metal parts.
