Leisureways of Rotherham and Butlers Automotive have added 60 new ABTEX brake caliper references, bringing the ABTEX caliper range stocked by the two U.K. motor factors to 250 part numbers. Motor factors are independent parts distributors that supply repair shops in the U.K. aftermarket. According to Leisureways, the expansion continues the two businesses’ effort to give independent repair shops a wider selection of replacement parts.
Balancing Cost and Quality for Repair Shops
The factors say many repair shops weigh quality against cost when choosing replacement components. Leisureways and Butlers position the ABTEX caliper range as a lower-cost option that still meets the quality shops expect.
Tom Clarke, Branch Manager at Leisureways, said: “We know that garages are dealing with customers who have different budgets, that’s why we offer both premium and more affordable braking components, giving workshops options when discussing repairs with their customers.
“The ABTEX range expansion reflects how we’re continuing to develop the range based on what our customers need. With 250 ABTEX braking part numbers available across both branches, garages have more choice when they’re looking for an affordable, high-quality braking solution.”
Ordering and Delivery
Repair shops and technicians can order the new ABTEX references through the Leisureways and Butlers Automotive online ordering portal. Same-day and next-day delivery are available.
The companies describe the caliper expansion as one step in a broader plan to offer repair shops more choice and reliable product availability. Both factors say they will keep developing their product ranges and stock levels as customer requirements change.
