Request for Quote for Manufacturing Parts

With our New Inventory Available Feature, you’ll be able to build your request for a quote for the following manufacturing parts brands:

• LeBlond
• K.O. Lee
• Standard Modern
• Johnson Press & Deka Drill

 

How Does Our New Industrial Components Tool Work?

LeBlond understands how difficult it is to find the exact part that your vintage machine tool needs.

Our new feature will make it easy for you to find them per brand as shown below.

Currently, we feature Deka Drill and Johnson Press parts with LeBlond, K.O. Lee, and Standard Modern parts coming soon.

While navigating the product pages, you’ll see the updated inventory parts photos of our fast-moving parts. You can select the desired part and quantity.

 If you don’t see the part you’re looking for, don’t stress. 

It’s business as usual. Just click or tap the custom quote button, fill in the information, submit and we’ll contact you!

We have hundreds of parts in-house. If your desired part is not in stock, we most likely have the prints to have it made!

Add a part by selecting “ADD TO RFQ”. RFQ stands for Request for Quote.

 

Choose as many parts as you need and after you’re done, scroll to the top or button of the page. You’ll see a “Product successfully added to RFQ – VIEW RFQ” button.

This will take you to a “check out page” where you’ll see a list of the items you have selected.

Keep scrolling and you’ll find a short form that will ask for your contact information, billing address, shipping information, a “How Did You Hear About Us?” question with options as well as a section to include questions or comments.

Let’s review each of these sections and highlight some key elements.

 

Contact Information

We’ll review your information, keep it private and track your quote effectively.

 

Billing Address

This section is vital for RFQ processing, order verification, security, legal compliance, and customer convenience. We adhere to the strictest standards to protect your data.

 

Shipping Information

You’ll find this section divided into UPS and UPS Shipping Information.

 

UPS

You’ll be able to select whether you want prepaid or collect shipping. The key difference between prepaid and collect shipping is who covers the shipping costs.

Prepaid shipping involves the shipper paying upfront while collect shipping involves the recipient using their internal UPS account for shipping charges.

Another form field asks for your UPS account number if collect.

 

UPS Shipping Information

Has three options for you to choose from: Ground, 2nd Day Air and Red. 

Here are details on the three UPS options:

• Ground Shipping: Economical, slower option for non-time-sensitive shipments.
• 2nd Day Air: Expedited service with delivery guaranteed within two business days.
• Next Day Air (Red Shipping): Expedited service with delivery guaranteed on the next business day.

“How Did You Hear About Us?”

This section is essential because it provides LeBlond with valuable information to improve our online systems and overall quality, allowing us to create better content such as this blog or a YouTube tutorial.

 

Questions and Comments

Any comment or question is welcome. Here at LeBlond, we strongly believe that your opinion has a powerful impact. You’re a key contributor!

 

What Are You Waiting For?

You now know how it works. Now try it! We might have a mystery gift for you. Keep scrolling for details!

 

Our Machine Components Are OES. Huh!?

Yes, “OES” stands for “Original Equipment Supplier”.

OES parts are designed to meet the exact specifications of the original parts installed by the manufacturer. 

These quality parts are often used in maintenance and repair to ensure compatibility and performance comparable to the original equipment.

Manufacturers lacking the capability to produce Original Equipment Supplier (OES) components lack access to the authentic blueprints and schematics needed for crafting these quality parts. 

Consequently, these components will not adhere to precise specifications, potentially leading to significant complications like: 

• Substandard aftermarket parts have a reduced operational lifespan, requiring more frequent replacements than OES counterparts.
• Misalignment between the aftermarket part and the machine’s other components may result in collateral damage, given the aftermarket part’s deviation from exact specifications.
• And more!

Get Parts & Reduce Costs with a High-Speed Lathe 

Lathes are machines used for machining operations, specifically turning. 

Turning is a process in which a cylindrical workpiece is rotated against a cutting tool, and material is removed from the workpiece to create a desired shape.

Lathes are commonly used to produce parts with rotational symmetry, such as cylinders, cones, and spheres. They can be used to create a variety of components, including shafts, bolts, nuts, and other similar parts.
