Performance systems for excavators and loaders.
Built to control and reduce unpredictable wear-driven downtime.

  • Where downtime actually starts

    Most downtime does not start with the machine.
    It starts at the ground.
    Teeth. Adapters. Wear systems.
    That is where performance is lost first.
    That is where we operate.

We don’t supply parts.
We solve wear and downtime at the system level.

You've changed teeth before. Probably more times than you should have.
You've tried the OEM. Maybe a cheaper alternative. And the problem, unplanned downtime, unpredictable wear, teeth that give out before they should, adapters prematurely wearing out, keeps coming back.
That's not a parts problem. That's a system problem. We fix systems. Not by selling you something and walking away, but by examining your machine, your material, and your operation, and building something around it.
We've seen enough operations to know what works and what's just a catalog answer dressed up as a solution.

That's the difference. Not the steel. Us.

this is what controlled wear looks like

CAT 992K loader
500+ hours/set in granite
Only 3 adapter failures in 4 years

4 years in granite.
Still holding profile.

Not theory. Field performance.

We don't represent brands. We solve operational problems.
We chose C-REX because nothing else we’ve seen performs like it in the field.

we run pilots because performance should be proven, not promised.

Meet the founder

Efraim G. Vicente
Founder & President, CorePartsDirect

After more than 20 years working with fleets, operators, and real jobsite conditions, one thing became clear: the problem isn't parts. It's lack of control.

You can change suppliers. You can try a different system. But if wear stays unpredictable, downtime stays unpredictable. I've watched this repeat itself across operations of every size. It doesn't fix itself.

That's why CorePartsDirect exists, not to sell parts, but to bring control to wear and downtime. To look at an operation as a whole and build solutions that perform where it actually matters: in the field, under pressure, over time.

We don't guess. We measure. We prove it.
