What does "interchangeable product" mean?
An interchangeable product on fluid-hub is a component from a different brand that can technically replace the product you are viewing, guaranteeing the same basic characteristics and performance. It is therefore a concrete alternative useful when:
- The original product is not immediately available
- The delivery times of the original are too long for your needs
- You want to evaluate an option with a different price.
The interchangeables available on fluid-hub are visible directly on the product page, in the Interchangeables section, accessible only to users with an active account. For their precise location on the page and the operation of the section, read Where can I find interchangeable products?
Note: although technically interchangeable, the products may present some differences in specific characteristics (e.g. seal material, voltage, mounting interface). These differences are always highlighted in the comparison table, which we recommend you consult carefully before proceeding with the purchase.
