The letters SLP stand for Swedish Lorry Parts. The word 'Lorry' says it all: once started as a manufacturer of truck parts for Swedish engine brands. SLP has become an indispensable parts brand for water and road applications. The service and accuracy at SLP are unequalled. Together with SLP's experienced technical specialists, Wilmink's experts always find exactly the part you need. And they found them for more than 20 years. An enduring relationship!
This is SLP
| The Swedish company started with OE parts in 1991; meanwhile, SLP supplies heavy engine parts to 91 countries around the world. For transport, marine and industrial engines. In this blog, we shine the spotlight on the marine sector, where more than ever, top quality at the right price applies. At SLP, they put it this way: 'Breathe new life into your diesel engine on time, good for the environment and for your wallet.' | |
The marine sector
For marine engines by Scania, Volvo Penta, Renault and others, SLP supplies basically everything that could ever need replacing. Including piston rings, very complete gasket sets, camshafts, bearings, connecting rods, cylinder head bolts, etc. Also complete engine repair kits. These contain all parts for a complete engine overhaul. As reliability is especially important in shipping, this is an industry where regular (scheduled) maintenance is of the utmost importance. After all, an emergency repair is always inconvenient. Nice to know: the first ship equipped with a diesel engine dates back to 1903. Today, 99% of seagoing vessels are equipped with a diesel engine. For SLP, this is a product range that is still growing and expanding. SLP developed in-house, among other things, pistons for the Volvo D4 and D6 engines in 3 different oversizes.
