Visual identification

Not sure what the part is called?

Upload photos of the worn part, stamp, and dataplate on the RFQ. We match from stamped numbers and machine model, then reply with availability, MOQ, and lead time in writing.

Independent aftermarket supplier — not an official JCB identification tool.

Quick answer

A photo helps the quote desk see the assembly and any stamped numbers. Fitment is confirmed against the OEM or casting number, machine model, and serial range. Visual similarity is not treated as a match. This is not an automated image search.

  • Readable stamp: use OEM lookup, then RFQ the matched SKU.
  • No stamp: attach the six-shot set below on Get a quote.
  • Genuine vs aftermarket buying rules live on the dedicated guide.

How it works

Photos go to the same quote desk as a parts list

This is a discovery path into RFQ, not a separate catalogue or AI matcher.

  1. 01

    Photograph

    Stamped OEM/casting number, worn face, and machine plate when possible.

  2. 02

    Attach on RFQ

    Use Get a quote — the form already accepts image attachments with your quantities and destination.

  3. 03

    Written match

    The desk confirms interchange against the catalogue. Ambiguous photos get a request for serial range, not a guessed SKU.

If you already know the OEM number, use OEM lookup or parts by machine. How numbers are structured: how to read JCB part numbers.

What to photograph

Six shots the desk can actually use

Blurry cab photos waste a round-trip. These frames map to stamps and dimensions, not visual similarity.

  1. 01

    Machine dataplate

    Model and serial on the chassis plate. Without this, serial-band kits cannot be confirmed.

  2. 02

    Part in the assembly

    Show where it sits (bucket joint, gland, filter head) so the desk does not mix boom and dipper rams.

  3. 03

    Worn face with a scale

    A coin, rule, or caliper in frame. Oval bores and scored rods are visible here.

  4. 04

    OEM or casting stamp

    Rake light across the number. Prefix/suffix stamps (for example 550/40899) beat a product photo from the web.

  5. 05

    Pin ends or gland and rod

    Pins: both ends and length. Cylinders: gland plate plus rod OD. Seal kits are not “3DX kits”.

  6. 06

    Unused opposite face

    If one side is worn flat, the other face may still carry a number or a matching bush.

Photo identification FAQ

A photo helps the desk see the assembly and any stamped numbers. Fitment is still confirmed against the OEM or casting number, machine model, and serial range. Visual similarity alone is not treated as a match.
Six shots if you can: (1) machine dataplate, (2) the full part in the assembly, (3) the worn face with a scale or coin, (4) any OEM or casting stamp, (5) pin ends or gland/rod for rams, (6) the opposite unused face if it still has a number. Include quantity and destination on the same RFQ.
No. Photos are reviewed by the quote desk with the rest of your RFQ. There is no public reverse-image catalogue on this site.
