Dorman Products has released a guide regarding its OE FIX product line.
Dorman defines OE FIX products as Dorman-engineered parts that are exclusive upon release and improve on an original equipment design. In this new publication, the company says it tells the stories behind dozens of OE FIX products, showing how Dorman engineers diagnosed failure points in original designs, and found ways to simplify replacement or make upgrades to increase performance and reliability.
“Many counterpeople and service technicians know to check Dorman first whenever they need a replacement part, but we want to make sure they also know why to choose Dorman first,” says Dorman President and CEO Kevin Olsen. “This new guide perfectly showcases all the creative ways we design and engineer parts to solve common repair problems.”
OE FIX products add value in multiple ways, Dorman says, such as by strengthening materials to prevent future failures, modifying design to reduce installation time, or allowing replacement of only the failure-prone component instead of an entire assembly.
