In the world of heavy-duty equipment, performance and uptime are non-negotiable. Whether you're managing a construction site, running a mining operation, or maintaining earthmoving fleets, you know that when a machine breaks down, time is money. And the longer it takes to get a reliable replacement part, the more it costs your business.
That’s why companies across South Africa and beyond choose Vikfin as their trusted partner for used excavator and earthmoving equipment parts. With a commitment to deep product knowledge, quality assurance, and unmatched availability, Vikfin has become the go-to source for used parts for brands like Caterpillar, Komatsu, and Volvo.
Here’s a deep dive into what sets us apart—and why customers keep coming back.
1. Our Inventory Is Built for Demanding Pros
At Vikfin, we don’t just carry parts—we stock solutions to your biggest downtime problems. Our warehouse is home to one of South Africa’s most comprehensive inventories of used and refurbished components for major OEM brands. This means you’re more likely to find the exact part you need—when you need it.
Whether it’s a final drive for your CAT 320, a boom cylinder for your Komatsu PC200, or a starter motor for a Volvo EC210, we’ve got you covered. Our inventory includes:
Engines & Engine Parts
Hydraulic Pumps & Cylinders
Final Drives & Travel Motors
Swing Motors & Gearboxes
Radiators, Cabs, Frames & Panels
Electrical Components & Controls
Rebuilt Assemblies
Each part is handpicked and quality-assured by our team before it ever reaches your machine.
2. We Specialize in the World’s Leading OEM Brands
When you’re sourcing a part for a top-tier brand like Caterpillar, Komatsu, or Volvo, precision matters. These machines are engineered for performance and longevity, and putting the wrong or low-quality component inside them can cause long-term issues or even failure.
That’s why Vikfin focuses exclusively on a narrow group of premium OEM brands—giving us deep insight into every bolt, bearing, and seal. Our team understands:
The nuances between generations and model variants
Which parts can be reconditioned and which should be replaced
How different environmental conditions affect part performance
Where the best value lies between new, used, and remanufactured parts
We’re not generalists—we’re specialists in what we do. This gives our customers a huge advantage when it comes to sourcing with confidence.
3. Experienced Professionals, Not Just Salespeople
At Vikfin, you’re not just buying from a catalog—you’re working with a team that understands machines inside and out. Our staff includes industry veterans, former mechanics, and excavator techs who can identify and match parts quickly and accurately.
We don’t just say, “That part’s in stock.” We ask:
What machine are you running?
What issue are you experiencing?
Is there a way to fix it without full replacement?
That’s how we help you avoid unnecessary costs, make smarter decisions, and get your equipment running sooner.
4. Every Used Part Goes Through Rigorous Checks
Our used parts aren’t just pulled from scrap and thrown on the shelf. Each item is:
Thoroughly inspected for wear and defects
Cleaned, serviced, and reconditioned where necessary
Bench-tested for functionality (where applicable)
Matched with exact OEM part numbers for accuracy
When you buy from Vikfin, you’re getting a verified part that has passed our internal quality control standards—so you can install with confidence.
5. Affordability Without Compromising on Quality
One of the biggest benefits of working with Vikfin is cost savings. New OEM parts can be prohibitively expensive, especially when margins are tight. Our used and reconditioned parts provide a smart alternative, often costing a fraction of new while still delivering excellent performance.
This means:
You can stretch your maintenance budget further
You can repair rather than replace in many cases
You can keep older machines operational long after OEMs stop producing new parts
6. We’re Local—And We Deliver Nationwide
Being based in South Africa means we understand local challenges—from harsh terrain to unpredictable job site conditions. It also means we can dispatch parts quickly to major hubs and remote sites alike.
Need same-day shipment? Looking for help over the phone or WhatsApp? We’ve got it covered. And if we don’t have your part in stock, our network of suppliers means we’ll source it faster than most.
7. A Reputation You Can Trust
Over the years, Vikfin has earned the trust of hundreds of contractors, operators, and fleet managers. Our reputation is built on:
Honesty in what we sell
Integrity in how we do business
Reliability in every part that leaves our facility
We don’t overpromise. We deliver.
8. Support Beyond the Sale
At Vikfin, the relationship doesn’t end at checkout. We’re here to support you through installation, troubleshooting, and follow-up. If there’s an issue, we sort it out—quickly and fairly.
Because we believe that great service is just as important as great parts.
