PCU rebuild kit for '03 series

**mikadonovan** · 06-08-2018

Hi, All. I hope your day is going well. There is a new PCU rebuild kit for the C4503, and I was just wondering if anyone has tried these. They are under consideration due to the astronomical cost of new oem unit replacement.

We have been using these for about 6 months with quit good results but on some units we have had the blade stick and flip over
the copy quality is also good for the price they are worth looking at in the UK you can buy the units pre built for you but cost £200.00 still a saving and saves about 40 min of the Engineers time.
By the time the copier needs drums etc its in its last 18 months so you don't want to spend large amounts of money on them and not get it back in meter click.

who makes these kits?
my experience with aftermarket drums is I found the German and the ones from Japan much more reliable
and a much harder surface.At the price seen here I would say at least try one for a black drum
replacement and see how it does..

You might try reading the PDF the mikadonovan attached to his original post then search the company named at the end. Contact them for UK distributors.

i stopped using katun over 5 years ago.
At that time the rebuild kits for the mp22 to mp1022 drums were
crap,would scratch if you looked at it wrong..
Maybe they changed,i think they were taken over by another company

Then you will love Q2. I had never heard of them before either and their name slid right past me on the advertisement posted but when I googled them, they are a group of people that left Katun to form their own business. Think we may have to try them out.
