Used Caterpillar Parts in South Africa: Genuine Dismantled Spares and Aftermarket Earthmoving Parts
Elchom Group is a Caterpillar parts supplier in South Africa with two sources of stock. Natasha buys damaged and decommissioned machines and dismantles them for usable components. We also stock new aftermarket earthmoving parts for the items that wear out fastest. One counter covers both, so you can compare options before you commit to a price.
Genuine Used Parts from Dismantled Machines
Some parts are slow to order, discontinued or expensive new. Elchom’s answer is to source the machine itself. Natasha buys broken, damaged and decommissioned yellow-metal machinery, and our team dismantles it for genuine OEM components.

Mobile Mechanical Repairs & On-Site Diagnostics Across Gauteng
When a machine breaks down on site, hauling it out on a lowbed is not always practical or cost-effective. Loading, transport and downtime add up fast, and some faults can be fixed where the machine stands. Elchom Group sends mobile mechanics to diagnose and repair mechanical, hydraulic and structural faults on your site.
We dispatch across Johannesburg, Alberton, Boksburg, Jet Park, Isando, Sandton, Midrand and Pretoria. If the machine does need to move, our lowbed transport is a flat R5,000 (excluding VAT), covered on our construction and plant hire page. If you need a replacement machine while yours is down, see our TLB hire in Johannesburg.
Machine down on site? Call Natasha on +27 61 529 5417 with the machine make, model and a description of the fault. Repairs are quoted per fault.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Frequently Asked Questions About Earthmoving Parts & CAT Spares in South Africa
Elchom Group runs a parts counter at JBR Centre, Shop M8, Alberton-North, Johannesburg. We supply new aftermarket parts and dismantled genuine OEM components for CAT excavators, CAT TLBs and the classic CAT 3304 and CAT 3306 engines. Natasha sources damaged and decommissioned machines and dismantles them for usable parts, so we can often find components that are slow or costly to order new.
Send the machine model, plus the engine serial number for an engine part, to Natasha on +27 61 529 5417 or sales@elchomgroup.co.za. We also supply JCB, Bell, Case and Wheel Carrier parts.
Dismantled genuine OEM parts are made by the machine manufacturer and usually cost less than a new equivalent. They are often the only option for older or discontinued models. They have worked before, so ask Natasha to confirm the condition of the specific part before you buy.
New aftermarket parts suit fast-wearing items you buy in volume, such as sidecutters, ploughbolts and ploughnuts, where you want fresh stock and consistent supply.
Use dismantled OEM when you need a genuine structural or drivetrain component at a lower cost. Use aftermarket for wear items. Natasha will tell you which suits the part and the machine on +27 61 529 5417.
Open your Bell Equipment, JCB or CAT parts catalog, note the part numbers and send them to Natasha on WhatsApp at +27 61 529 5417. A photo of the old part or the machine plate also works. Include the machine make and model.
We check availability across our new, aftermarket and dismantled stock and come back to you with pricing. You can also email sales@elchomgroup.co.za. Typical requests include Bell dump truck parts, Bell logger spare parts and JCB parts for TLBs.
