    Our Proven Spindle Restoration Process

    Setco’s systematic approach ensures consistent, high-quality results for every repair project. After receiving the spindle at our facility, technicians carefully disassemble and clean all components to conduct a comprehensive failure analysis. This detailed evaluation identifies wear patterns, damage, and the root causes of spindle malfunction. Following inspection, we prepare firm and, in most cases, free price quotes outlining the necessary repairs. Upon approval, our skilled technicians execute the restoration using precision techniques, then reassemble, precision balance, and test the spindle to verify performance meets or exceeds specifications.

    We offer three types of service for spindles. When scheduling service, choose the option that is right for your spindle or request custom services to meet your unique needs.

    Test and Run

    Test and run is our evaluation-only service. Our technicians provide testing feedback and wait for approval.

    Rapid

    Rapid services are designed for emergency repairs. We will disassemble the spindle, inspect its components, and quote it as an emergency, waiting for you to approve the quote before starting service.

    Standard

    Our standard services include our standard lead time and thorough evaluation and repair procedure. We’ll provide a quote for the service and wait for approval before proceeding.
