Westlake Automotive - A reliable OE alternative
Share:

Distributed in Ireland by Murfit Brake and Clutch, the Westlake Automotive range of vehicle components, has been making a big impact in the aftermarket over recent months. Westlake Clutch Kits in particular are growing rapidly in popularity and Nicky Moureau, Product Manager at Westlake Europe, attributes this success to the company’s Total Service Package philosophy.


The Westlake Automotive Group now has over 20 years of experience in the manufacture and supply of quality automotive components, specialising in the research, design, manufacture and supply of clutch and brake systems, for both passenger car and commercial vehicles. Nicky says that the focus of Westlake at every stage in the supply chain is to exceed expectations in terms of range, price, support and availability.

Highly sophisticated quality management systems operate in all Westlake production facilities, which include stringent testing and wear simulation. This is reflected in the component quality and in a 2 year 30,000 km warranty. The company is also an original equipment supplier for many manufacturers.

When it comes to range, Westlake offers an extensive portfolio of vehicle applications for the whole European market. Products include 3in1 kits, 4in1 conversion kits and hydraulic bearings. The Westlake 4in1 conversion kit, allows garages to fully replace a failed Dual Mass Flywheel system, meaning big cost savings, improved durability and equal performance to OE. In order to keep the range current, some 100 new kits are added each year, with Westlake placing great emphasis on being first to market with many new applications.

Ray Murphy MD of Murfit Brake and Clutch says " the westlake product range is very keenly priced and there is great backup technical support from Westlake. We are very happy to be distributing this product range.".

Nicky Moureau says, “The Westlake Total Service Package ensures a market advantage for our customers, which makes Westlake a reliable and cost effective alternative to OE.”
