TROY, Mich., Oct. 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Meritor, Inc.
(NYSE: MTOR) announced the launch of genuine Meritor WABCO
remanufactured air dryers that are designed to deliver the
sustained durability and performance of new OEM parts at a reduced
price.
Beginning this month, Meritor will start selling remanufactured
System Saver™ 1200 family air dryers for heavy- and medium-duty
commercial trucks. Each industry-leading System Saver air dryer is
remanufactured with genuine Meritor WABCO components and tested to
ensure OE quality and performance.
"Remanufactured Meritor WABCO air dryers are a cost-effective
option that doesn't sacrifice original equipment manufacturer
quality," said Steve Hampson,
president and general manager for Meritor WABCO. "We have the
complete product knowledge, replacement parts and test capabilities
required to build reliable and high-quality parts."
When using remanufactured products, fleets should make sure that
they meet OE quality standards, Hampson added. Using recommended OE
parts and processes reduces the risk of diminishing functionality,
water downstream and damage to vehicle systems such as brakes,
engines and transmissions.
Cartridges are a vital factor when considering air dryer
performance and quality. Meritor WABCO remanufactured air dryers
are packaged with the same OEM-approved cartridges as used on
production vehicles. Meritor WABCO air dryer systems have the
drying performance specified by OEs, which helps to decrease the
risk of water damage to internal components.
The addition of genuine Meritor WABCO remanufactured air dryers
supports Meritor's goal of providing cost-effective aftermarket
solutions to customers with vehicles of various ages.
Remanufactured with OE authenticity at WABCO's award-winning
Reman Solutions facility in Rochester
Hills, Michigan, Meritor WABCO's remanufactured System Saver
air dryers are designed to meet virtually any vocational
requirement. Compact and lightweight designs offer easy
installation.
"Adding these products to the Meritor WABCO remanufacturing
portfolio, brought to the market by Meritor, furthers our goal of
providing cost effective remanufactured solutions," said
Tim Bauer, director, Remanufacturing
for Meritor. "Remanufacturing has positive environmental impact
because recycling components prevents waste of used materials and
allows their continued usage by the customer."
Hampson added: "Returning used cores helps Meritor WABCO ensure
continuation of the remanufacturing process that keeps costs low
for end-users."
Meritor WABCO System Saver air dryer cores will be collected
through Meritor's core center. Details for collection of cores are
available at MeritorCoreOnline.com.
The remanufactured air dryers are an important element of
