Repair Options

You chose Cat machines to get the best output from your investment. That value shouldn't change throughout the equipment lifecycle. Repairs and rebuilds can add life to your machines and reduce costs to your bottom line. And no one in the industry does it better than Caterpillar. From the original design, our components are engineered to be repaired and rebuilt. What's that mean for you? Whatever your production or budget targets, no one has more expertise — or options — to find the perfect repair option for your operation.

Minor Overhaul

Typically when under 1,000 hours of utilization, this minor overhaul includes seals, gaskets, rings and bearings — but excludes external parts like injectors, turbos, exhaust, electrical, electronics and accessories.

Major Overhaul

Still usually within 1,000 hours, this larger overhaul includes all Level 1 parts but also reconditions or replaces other critical parts not meeting reuse guidelines, including engines, transmissions, hydraulic systems and undercarriage components.

Dealer Rebuild    

With three options based on your needs, this level goes beyond "replace and repair" by rebuilding systems for another life. This could be: 1) a complete rebuild using core components and returning them to a new state at a fraction of the cost of new; 2) a dealer exchange rebuild from dealer inventory for quicker turnaround; 3) a complete Cat Certified Rebuild with all critical engineering updates included.

Reman    

An advanced rebuild, this level offers a complete component exchange with Cat Reman components — factory rebuilt to specifications with the latest engineering updates, and the same warranty and durability as a new component.

New

If core components are not reusable, this level replaces all components using new genuine Cat parts. At this level, utilization clock starts at zero hours — your rebuilt components will work another life equal to a new piece of equipment.
