Over the past few years’ expansion within the brake system parts programme, Triscan has almost become a OneStop shop within this area. With a coverage of the car parc of up to 97%, the garages are able to get the necessary spare parts for even the more rare cars.
As one of the only suppliers in the market, Triscan now offers the original parabolic spring for Mercedes Sprinter 1995-2006 made from fiberglass strengthened composite.
One of the main advantages of using a composite spring rather than a conventional steel spring is to achieve a weight saving of not less than 19 kg.
In their efforts to create a well-functioning recycling system for old calipers, Budweg has prepared some updated return instructions, which in its simplicity describes the individual processes in a correct return.
The guide is intended to make the handling of the old calipers more transparent, flexible and efficient - for the benefit of all parties.

Data quality is a complex character and at the same time a prerequisite for fast, efficient and accurate ordering. Particularly for this reason, data quality is to be taken very seriously. Triscan’s data quality has always been good, but the ultimate and ambitious goal for Triscan is to be proud owner of the best data quality.
On certain types of water pumps, Volvo has chosen to make a different type of pulley than usual. This pulley has fewer teeth and protects the timing belt in the belt drive.
In the aftermarket, you may find the same type of water pump in another variant with the usual pulley and a pulley with fewer teeth - both variants can be used and installed without problems.
Should you as a mechanic receive a Volvo water pump with another type of pulley than the one already mounted on the car, then it is not a mistake. You can safely continue the replacement of the water pump.
In Triscans attempt to make sourcing of complex product groups easy for wholesalers and distributors, Triscan has expanded its already extensive sensor program with water temperature sensors, camshaft position sensors, crankshaft position sensors and throttle bodies.
As a wholesaler, it is important to be prepared for sale of the standard winter products during the winter time. But it is just as important to be updated on product groups that include the parts, which suffer the most during winter time, such as:
• Steering parts
• Suspension
• Brake calipers
• Hand brake and clutch cables
• Transmission parts
• Compartment or bonnet gas springs
As a supplier of spare parts for garages it is necessary to stay updated constantly and be able to disseminate information on business opportunities and the latest product knowledge. However, at what time of day and on what day of week do you have the time to read the news? Do you prefer to seek out the news yourself or to receive it? Would you rather receive news in electronic or printed format - or a combination of both? The choice is yours, and as the news volume grows and the opportunities of how to spread the news increase, the preferences among the recipients are also diverse.
The clip is sold originally as an individual component (PSA OE 4341.14), but at a cost far exceeding the value of the cables - and therefore making a repair costly.
As a cheaper alternative, the clip is sold as part of a set (PSA OE 4333.05 and Fiat OE 9949473 - but only as a set of two clips and two springs). The springs do rarely break, and therefore there is no reason to pay for a whole set, of which only half is used.
Triscan’s sensor family has now been extended to include camshaft and crankshaft position sensors. With more than 230 references, this new line of products fulfills Triscan’s goal of providing the most complete programmes in the market. For the wholesaler, this is an obvious upsell opportunity in a complex product line that until now has required several suppliers in order to obtain an adequate coverage.
