The sale of a product cannot end with its selling, especially when it comes to professional tools. What is the meaning of buying a new item when it could easily be fixed with some spare parts? That is the philosophy we applied to all non-consumable products. Indeed, on our website, we display a selection of replacement parts and offer a repair service (https://vmrubber.com/en/services/).
Our idea can be explained by making some simple examples, taken from our daily lives. Who would throw away a perfectly running car only because one windshield wiper is broken? Who would choose to change the washing machine instead of replacing the porthole’s gasket? Who would buy a new TV in the place of buying batteries for the controller? We have exploited this line of reasoning in our products with the aim of helping and leading our customers towards more sustainable choices (both economically and environmentally). In this short article, we would like to introduce people to the main extruder gun’s spare parts.
The extruders consist of two parts: pneumatic or electric one and a mechanical barrel. Both parts have components subject to wear or that need to be replaced over time. Substituting these elements does not compromise the reliability of the machine. Anyone using extruder guns for years must have changed the screw serval times because it wears off due to the constant usage. Might have had to switch the heating element because the extruder was not heating up properly, or the knob because it was no longer possible to see the numbers on it. At the same time, the drill (especially the Bosch drive) has parts that sometimes need to be replaced to allow the extruder to keep working at its best. That can avoid the purchase of a new machine. To get a good idea of the components with the higher demand, people can check our catalog on page 27 or visit our website (https://vmrubber.com/en/c/retreading/extruder-guns/). Those items are in stock in our warehouse and off-the-shelf. Furthermore, to facilitate the selection of the correct piece, we created the “suitable for” chart showing the exact replacement for your extruder.
Since we are aware that sometimes it is difficult to change those parts (especially the pneumatic drill ones) or evaluate the cost-effectiveness of replacing more components compared to buying a new machine: we decided to offer a repair service. Any customer can choose to send us a malfunctioning extruder, or we can collect it, and we will evaluate the feasibility of the repair. We will submit our quote, and after receiving the confirmation, we will proceed with the renovation and send it back in no time.
