Eaton FLEX Reman transmission

Eaton has made several enhancements to its lineup of FLEX Reman transmissions to better equip truck dealers and truck OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) to meet the aftermarket needs of their customers.

Among the improvements to the product line is changing the part numbers to a model-based system, eliminating the need to cross-reference part numbers with model numbers and making it easier to find the correct part. In addition, a new pricing structure has been introduced, with logistic center, direct-ship, and truck-down orders all priced the same. Availability and delivery changes have been made as well. All reman units are now eligible to ship the same day or next day for truck-down situations and increased inventories have been added to Eaton’s 14 North American logistic centers resulting in shorter lead times.

Also, Eaton has changed the line-up of transmission models available, increasing FLEX coverage from 75 to 82% of market demand. It now covers 50 standard reman items.

Because these reman transmissions cover a wide range of torques and are shipped with no clutch housings, truck dealers are able to lower their parts inventories and still increase the availability of multiple remanufactured transmission models.

FLEX transmissions are now available for the most popular of Eaton’s models including the FR 10-speed and RTLO 13- and 18-speed models. All are made with 100 percent genuine Eaton components and carry a two-year/unlimited miles base warranty. Extended protection plans are also available.
