Once logged in to the Trade Site you can browse by category or use the dedicated multi-functional search box to find a part.

If you know the Maddocks part number, simply enter it into the search box and you will be directed to the correct part. Otherwise you will need at least one of the following pieces of information to find a part.

1. Manufacturer original part number
2. Machine model number and brand
3. Machine product code
4. Detailed part description

Without any of this information, it will be extremely difficult to find the part you're looking for. We do not accept machine serial numbers on the trade site. If you are trying to locate an Ametek motor you will need at least one of the following pieces of information.

1. Motor number e.g. 116110-01
2. Detailed specification description e.g. 3 Stage Tangential 5.7 inch, 240V, 1500W, complete with shell and tube

Yes. We sell a wide range of both genuine and pattern parts to suit all requirements.

"Temporarily Out of Stock" means that currently our stock level is zero, however more parts will be on order with our supplier. If you place an order for a part that displays this message, forthcoming stock will be allocated to orders on a first come, first served basis. This means that if you were the first customer to order the part after it went out of stock, you will be the first to be allocated stock when it arrives. Backorders will normally be dispatched as soon as the stock has arrived.

'Special Order Item' means that we do not keep stock of the part on the shelf. Special order items are supplied on an ad hoc basis, meaning they are only placed on order with the supplier once we receive an order for them. We are unable to ascertain supplier stock levels until we place the part on order with them.

Please note, special order items cannot be returned or cancelled once ordered as they are immediately placed on order with the supplier. Special order items cannot be refunded unless damaged and reported in accordance with our Terms & Conditions of Trade.

Estimated time of arrival for special order items varies with supplier and part. Special order items can take anything between 48 hours and 4 weeks to arrive, and for special order Ametek motors will take between approximately 4 and 12 weeks. If you are in any doubt as to the expected lead time for a special order item, please contact us before you place the item on order.

If the supplier is out of stock, estimated time of arrival for the part may increase dramatically.

The 'Your Notes' text box allows you to enter your own information to appear on the delivery note which is included within your parcel. You can enter any text that you think will help you when your order is delivered but examples of information entered are your own part number, your own customers' order number/contact details and 'stock' or 'stk' for general stock items or 'Spec' for specific customer requests.

If the 'We couldn't find any items that match "..."' message is displayed while searching for a part it could mean one of the following -

1. You have entered an incorrect or incomplete manufacturer original part number, machine model number and brand or machine product code. Please check you have entered the correct information.
2. We do not currently have the part in our system, but does not necessarily mean we cannot supply it. If this is the case, you can contact us to enquire about the part.

If you have entered the correct information in the search or other parts for the same machine are listed but not the part you're looking for, and if you have at least one of the pieces of information required to find a part (see What information do I need to find a part?) please contact us and we will attempt to find it for you.

Yes. We have access to over 100,000 exploded diagrams for over 100 OEMs so if you are looking to identify a part please contact us and we will attempt to locate the diagram for you. We can also email or fax you the diagram to you so you can identify the exact part you require.

The UK-EU Brexit transition period ended on 31st December 2020 and it is essential that our EU customers are prepared for the changes from 2021 onwards to ensure trading together continues smoothly and uninterrupted. You can find more country-specific information here.

Maddocks’ EORI numbers are GB615691040000 and XI615691040000

Yes, please send it to us via email to sales@htmaddocks.co.uk as we will need to give this information to the carrier who is delivering your order.

At the end of the Brexit transition period on 31st December 2020 the United Kingdom left the EU customs union. From that point on, all goods crossing the UK-EU border require customs clearance. An EORI number is required for customs clearance. If your company already trades outside the EU, then it is likely you already have an EORI number. If not, you will need to apply for one which should be free, easy, and quick to obtain from your government.

If using Maddocks’ carrier, we will ship under DAP terms (Incoterms 2020). This means that Maddocks will arrange the transport and be responsible for the goods until they are delivered to your EU premises, and we will pay for the UK export customs clearance costs. You will be responsible for meeting the cost of any EU import duties and customs charges due, which will be payable prior to delivery.

If you wish to transport the goods with your own carrier, Maddocks can ship on FCA terms (Incoterms 2020) from our premises. This means that Maddocks will pay for the UK export customs clearance costs. You will be responsible for meeting the costs of any EU import duties and customs due, as well as arranging the transport. Maddocks does not currently permit parcel shipments to the EU using your own carrier.
