To serve our customers better, we maintain probably
the world’s largest inventory of brake bands in our
New Iberia, La. warehouse. Our bands are
stored “blocked” (dressed out) and ready for immediate
delivery and
installation on
your rig—day or night. Our 24-hour shipping and
delivery service keeps rig “down time” to a minimum
and reduces your need for mechanic services at the
rig location.
We are among the very few manufacturers that
serialize their bands. We use serial numbers on both
our new and rebuilt bands in order to track and
record their “life cycle.” Copies of MTRs, MPIs, and
inspection reports will be provided upon request,
which is an industry
first.
Digital pictures are taken as well, and these are
e-mailed to customers who have this requirement.
One of our most
popular specialties is
the rebuilding
of your old brake bands along
with the installation of our blocks (lining). Send
us your used brake bands and we will return them to
you in like new condition. If your bands are cracked
or need the bushings replaced, we will inform you of
such before proceeding and let you choose the
options. We prefer to install our brake blocks on
our (or your) bands in order to ensure the proper
torque of the brass bolts and locking nuts. Our
special lock nuts are far superior to anything our
competitors use. Because of our proprietary
installation techniques, once we install our blocks we
guarantee they will NOT come off.
