NEW manufactured power steering racks, pumps, and gearboxes - every unit individually tested, serialized with a Designated Numeric Asset® ID, and built to outperform reman.
A Designated Numeric Asset® ID is etched into every unit, linked to a 100% test inspection report - included in the box.
A unique alphanumeric ID is etched into each rack, pump, and gear during final assembly.
Not batch-tested. Not sample-tested. Every single unit is verified before it leaves the line.
Match the part number to its inspection report. Eliminates fraudulent returns and protects you from warranty claims caused by other failing components.
Every Edelmann Elite® hard part ships with a printed Performance Test Report matched by serial number to the unit inside. Force Characteristic curves on the left and right cycle, effort-at-pressure values, free-play measurement, internal leak rate, post-test leak check - every line PASS, or the part doesn't leave the line.
When a customer disputes a return or a warranty claim turns up, the report is the receipt. Match the DNA® ID etched on the rack to the test report from the box - that's the unit, that's how it left the line, that's the proof.
100% brand new - never remanufactured. No core returns, no hidden deterioration, no grimy fluid surprises. Meets or exceeds OE in every category we ship.
Edelmann Elite® power steering pumps are 100% newly manufactured - never remanufactured cores. Upgraded seals, machined housings, and pressure-curve testing on every unit before it ships.
Engineered above OE to prevent the fluid seepage and contamination that drives reman warranty claims.
Every pump verified against OE-equivalent flow and pressure curves before it leaves the line.
Tight machining tolerances reduce the moan and whine common to remanufactured pumps in cold start.
Brand new - nothing to return, no grimy fluid to drain, no surprises at checkout.
The deepest application coverage in the program. Complete hydraulic rack & pinion assemblies built 100% new - never remanufactured - and engineered with upgrades the OE never offered. Every rack is designed to outlast the part it replaces.
By routing the vent tubes inside the rack body, our assemblies eliminate the most common preventable warranty failure on the original design. External tubes get caught, kinked, and crushed in service. Ours can't.
Vent path protected by the rack body itself - no tubes to compromise the pressure system.
Built to survive curb impacts, road debris, and the underbody conditions that destroy OE racks.
Removing the most-failed component is the single largest improvement we can offer the installer.
No external tubing to snag on subframes or heat shields during installation.
Every Edelmann Elite® rack starts as 100% new construction. Never a reman core. Engineered with upgrades the OE never offered - inside and out.
Thicker shaft resists bending and pitting under heavy steering loads - a documented OE failure point.
Mounting bushings ship installed. Drop in the unit without sourcing extra parts at the bay.
Steel replaces rubber. Keeps contamination out for the life of the rack.
Engineered to eliminate the cracking failures common to OE racks under sustained load.
Our hex inner tie rod ends eliminate the proprietary alignment tool every other rack on the shelf requires. The shop already has the wrench in the box. Alignments get faster, cheaper, and finish on the first attempt.
Upgraded packaging is purpose-built for the rack inside it - not a generic box with foam. The product reaches the bay in install-ready condition every single time.
Roughly half the vehicles on the road today use electric power steering - and inside that half, the single largest architecture relies on a part most people don't expect: a plain mechanical rack and pinion. That's the rack we build, and that's the story behind our Non-Programmable line.
Column-Assist EPS puts the assist motor and torque sensor behind the steering wheel, on the column itself. Everything downstream of that motor - including the rack and pinion - is purely mechanical. No electronics. No firmware. No torque sensor in the rack body.
It's the largest single EPS architecture on the road today, especially across compact and import nameplates - Hyundai/Kia, Mazda, Nissan, Fiat, Toyota, Volvo - because it's the most cost-effective way to deliver EPS to a passenger car.
P&E's Non-Programmable line covers 38 million of those vehicles with just 50 SKUs - more than half of the column-assist parc, served from a tightly-engineered catalog.
The motor, torque sensor, position sensor, and column coupler can almost always be serviced individually. P&E supports that repair-first approach across the EPS line. When the rack itself is the failure - curb impact, internal wear, leaking boot, bent shaft - that's when our Non-Programmable rack goes in the box.
The competitive aftermarket answer for a failed column-assist rack is a reman core - cleaned, shot-peened, and shipped back out. Same wear surfaces. Same rack shaft. Same internal geartrain that already failed once.
Our answer is different: a brand-new mechanical rack built to the same Edelmann Elite® standards as the rest of the program. Larger O.D. rack shaft. Pre-installed bushings. Metal dust caps. Strengthened internal geartrain. No core charge. No programming. No comeback.
And on applications that use Variable Steering Assist, we match the OE's internal design - so the rack drives the way the vehicle was engineered to. Competing aftermarket-new offerings re-engineer those internals and the customer feels it in the parking lot.
It's how Plews & Edelmann completes the EPS repair picture - surgical service when the electronics fail, and a NEW rack when the mechanics do.
Complete gearbox assemblies for heavy-vehicle and truck applications, engineered to eliminate the OE failure modes that drive reman warranty rates above 15%.
Engineered above OE to handle high-torque truck applications without flex or premature wear.
Multi-stage seal design prevents the fluid weep that's endemic in remanufactured gearboxes.
Built incorporating the latest OE engineering revisions - not the original failure-prone design.
True direct-replacement geometry. No bracket swaps, no shimming, no surprises.
Every Edelmann Elite® hard part ships with the industry's most aggressive warranty - because we already individually tested it.
