Spare Parts for Tools and Equipment

Select parts by the exact model, type/version, serial or production number, and the part number shown in the exploded diagram, not only by the product name. See how to find the exact spare part by model, version, serial or part number and exploded diagram. If an OEM number has been superseded or a compatible part is being considered, also review OEM and compatible spare parts: how to verify interchangeability and the correct part number.

A spare part is a component of the machine itself, while drill bits, cutting discs, blades and similar working items are normally accessories or consumables. Before ordering, confirm whether the item is a repair component or belongs in another product family.

Power-tool spare parts can include the armature/rotor, stator, carbon brushes, switch, power cord, electronic controller, housing and mechanical assemblies — how to choose mechanical and electrical spare parts for power tools. Motor architecture differences are covered in brushed and brushless motor. For cordless systems, check platform, voltage, charger and electronics compatibility — how to choose batteries, chargers and electronic spare parts for cordless tools and how to choose a battery and charger.

Gears, shafts, clutches, chain or belt drives and bearings must match dimensions, geometry and the exact assembly — how to choose drivetrain parts: gears, shafts, bearings, clutches and belts. For seals, gaskets, O-rings and repair kits, match size, material and operating medium — how to choose seals, gaskets, O-rings and repair kits.

Gasoline and diesel engine parts can include cylinder-piston components, cranktrain, carburetion/fuel system, ignition, starter, filters, gaskets and controls — how to choose spare parts for gasoline and diesel engines. For chainsaws, trimmers, mowers and other garden equipment see how to choose spare parts for garden and forestry equipment. General maintenance principles are covered in how to maintain and store motor tools and engine-powered equipment.

For generators, verify the AVR, stator/rotor, control panel, starting and engine components — how to choose generator spare parts: AVR, stator, rotor, starting and control components. Compressor parts include filters, separators, belts, valves, seals and service kits — how to choose compressor spare parts and service kits. Pump and pressure-washer parts include impellers, mechanical seals, valves, pistons/plungers and pump heads — how to choose spare parts for pumps and pressure washers.

Parts for plate compactors, rammers, concrete and cutting machines, plastering stations and other light construction equipment are often selected from the complete exploded diagram and the exact machine version. See how to choose spare parts for light construction equipment.

Pneumatic tools use rotors/vanes, valves, pistons, impact mechanisms and seal kits; hydraulic systems use cylinders, pistons, seals, valves and pump assemblies. See how to choose spare parts for pneumatic and hydraulic tools.

Filters, belts, brushes, some bearings, spark plugs, seals and service kits may be replaced during preventive maintenance, but intervals must be verified in the model-specific manual — which spare parts and service kits are replaced during preventive maintenance. Before service, also perform how to inspect a tool before use.

Replacing complex electrical or mechanical assemblies yourself, particularly during warranty coverage, can be unsafe or affect warranty terms. For cases requiring professional repair see when a spare-part replacement should be performed by a service center and follow essential power tool safety rules.
