Choose OE quality from your genuine parts partner

From quality and reliability to compatibility issues, compromised safety to shortened lifespan, counterfeit parts are simply not worth the risk. Featuring materials that are poorly or carelessly processed, products which are stolen or counterfeited can lead to increased tyre wear, poor ride comfort and unstable cornering behavior in the steering system and chassis – potentially endangering the lives of both driver and passengers alike.

There’s a reason why numerous well-known automotive manufacturers equip their vehicles with SACHS’ state-of-the-art products. And why, every year, millions of new vehicles equipped with SACHS genuine parts roll off the production line. Always choose quality, reliability, safety, expertise and performance, and do the best for you, your business and your customers.

RISKS OF USING NON-GENUINE SACHS CLUTCHES

lower performance

Non-genuine clutches may not work as efficiently, leading to poor acceleration, slow gear shifts, and reduced engine power, especially under heavy load or during emanding driving situations.

Faster wear and breakdown

Poor-quality materials in non-original clutches can wear out quickly, requiring more frequent replacements and increasing the risk of unexpected breakdowns.

Inconsistent functionality

Non-genuine clutches may not engage or disengage smoothly, causing difficulty in shifting gears, rough driving, and potential loss of control, especially in critical situations like steep hills or heavy traffic.

safety risks

A failing clutch can cause a sudden loss of power to the drivetrain, which could stall the vehicle in traffic or make it harder to control, increasing the risk of accidents.

damage to other components

Non-original clutches might not fit properly with other drivetrain parts like the flywheel or pressure plate, leading to extra wear and the need for costly repairs.

Used in trucks and buses for single-wheel and conventional suspensions inserted on the front axle, the SACHS LDM is a compact unit consisting of an air spring and a damper that offers improved roll stability.

RISKS OF USING NON-GENUINE SACHS SHOCKS

reduced safety

Non-original shock absorbers may not provide the same level of stability, leading to poor handling, especially on rough roads or when the vehicle is carrying heavy loads.

longer stopping

If shock absorbers don’t perform well, it can reduce braking efficiency and increase stopping distances, making emergency braking less effective.

uneven tire wear

Shock absorbers that don’t work properly can cause uneven pressure on the tires, leading to faster wear and potentially unsafe driving conditions.

driver discomfort

Non-genuine shock absorbers may not absorb road bumps well, leading to a rougher ride and increased driver fatigue during long trips.

extra strain on suspension parts

When shock absorbers don’t perform as they should, other suspension components, like springs and linkages, may wear out faster, leading to higher maintenance costs.
