Discussion of "Genuine" Vs "Generic" Repair Parts

1. In recent years there has been a rapid proliferation in the marketplace of "generic", "knock off" or "imitation" copies of Manufacturer's repair parts, usually made "off-shore"

2. These parts have no rightful place in the chain of supply to significant high quality installations, for the following reasons:

1. They are made to dimensional specifications only. The quality and properties of the material employed generally do not equal those of the original and do not conform to the original manufacturer's specifications;
2. It has been well documented that the "in-use life" of generic parts is far shorter than that of the originals. At the current cost of labor, frequency of replacement must be kept to a minimum;
3. Perhaps the most critical item of all - Original Equipment Manufacturers may nullify any factory warranty of end items, if their equipment is improperly repaired with "non-genuine" parts.
