Why OEM and Aftermarket Forklift Parts Matter

Downtime costs money. When your forklift breaks down, fast access to quality parts is the difference between a 1-hour fix and a 1-day loss. Here’s what you need to know about OEM vs. aftermarket parts – and why Alteon delivers both.

OEM Parts: The Perfect Fit

Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts are made by the forklift brand itself. They’re exact-match components designed for top performance.

Best For:

  • High-usage forklifts
  • Critical systems (brakes, hydraulics)
  • Maintaining warranty coverage

Aftermarket Parts: Smart Savings

Aftermarket parts are third-party manufactured and often more affordable. Quality varies, but Alteon only sources trusted brands that meet or exceed OEM specs.

Best For:

  • Older equipment
  • Budget-conscious repairs
  • Non-critical components (lights, filters)

Why Choose Alteon Equipment for Parts?

  • Huge inventory of OEM & aftermarket parts
  • Fast delivery across the GTA
  • Free parts sourcing assistance
  • Expert technicians available for installation
