Unimog & G-Wagen NOS Parts — Batch Rust Removal

Expedition Imports Corporation holds North America's largest independent inventory of Unimog, G-Wagen, and Pinzgauer parts. Because these vehicles are no longer in production, the company's NOS stock — some held for decades — is the last supply chain for owners keeping these platforms running.

G-Wagen parts in long-term storage develop a layer of surface oxidation that looks worse than it is — the steel beneath is typically sound. Laser cleaning removes that rust layer selectively, leaving the base metal intact and ready to inventory or install.

Clutch parts from NOS inventory showed uniform surface rust from decades of storage. Mechanical tolerances on these components are tight — any abrasive method risked removing material. Laser cleaning ablates only the iron oxide layer.

The pressure plate friction surface came out clean and dimensionally unchanged. Scott inspected each batch piece by piece — parts meeting spec went straight to inventory, usable after decades in storage.

Hydraulic components require clean mating surfaces — any residual rust causes seal failure. The laser removed oxidation from the cylinder body without touching the machined bore, keeping the part serviceable.

Small valves and fittings were processed in batches — the laser's precision allows multiple small parts to be cleaned in a single session without masking or fixturing. Output rate on this job ran well above what manual wire-brushing or electrolytic cleaning could achieve.

Where parts carried original factory paint over the rust layer, the laser removed both in sequence — no chemical strippers, no media blast residue to clean up afterward. Scott's team received parts ready to inspect, coat, or install directly.
