Genuine VS. Non-Genuine Parts
We’ve tested and compared the results: Cummins parts perform better and last longer. When it comes to productivity, efficiency, uptime and profitability, there is a genuine difference.
The Risk of Using Non-Genuine Parts
Competitive part manufacturers may try to reverse engineer Cummins parts and build something that will fit like an original part at a cheaper price. Using non-genuine parts which don’t meet critical engineering design specifications can impact:
- Engine Performance
- Fuel Economy
- Reliability
- Durability
- Uptime
- Warranty
Non-genuine put to the test
Cummins Engineers conducted lab analysis and destructive testing on over 300 nongenuine overhaul kit components for Cummins on highway engines, including pistons, piston rings, piston pins, cylinder liners, main bearings, connecting rod bearings, head gaskets and injectors. Of the over 300 non-genuine parts tested, none met all of Cummins Design Specifications.
The Genuine Difference
300+
non-genuine overhaul kit components tested through lab analysis and destructive testing
0
non-genuine parts met all of Cummins design specifications
100+
years of perfecting the design and manufacturing of Genuine Cummins parts
NON-GENUINE PART INSPECTION RESULTS
Of the over 300 non-genuine parts tested, none met all of Cummins Design Specifications, and most failed in both the dimensional and material testing categories. Test results marked as “adequate” marginally met Cummins design intent, indicating that it loosely met some of Cummins design specifications, but not all of them.
