Ship spare parts supplier in Bangladesh

Buying ship spare parts in Bangladesh

Shipowners and managers, inland and coastal vessel operators, dredging and fishing fleets, shipyards and repair workshops buy engine, deck and navigation parts for vessels at Chattogram (Chittagong), Mongla, Narayanganj and Khulna. Much of the trade sits in Chattogram, where the ship recycling yards at Sitakunda supply reconditioned parts alongside new stock from makers in Europe, Japan, Korea or China.

A ship spare parts supplier in Bangladesh may quote new, replacement or reconditioned parts under the same description, so like-for-like comparison matters. Send us the maker, model, serial number and part numbers. We source from verified sellers, confirm each part against the maker's manual, inspect reconditioned parts for wear, cracks and test results, and deliver to your vessel, yard or warehouse, or ship abroad.

What to send a ship spare parts supplier in Bangladesh

Equipment identity

Maker, model and serial number from the nameplate, with a clear photo. Parts change between engine series and serial ranges, so the model alone is not enough.

Part numbers and photos

The part number and item number from the maker's manual, with quantities. Where the number is worn off, send dimensions and photos of the old part, or the part itself.

Condition accepted

State whether you accept new parts from the maker, new replacement parts from another maker, or reconditioned parts, for each line. Price, lead time, warranty and documents differ for each.

Certificates

Say whether a class society certificate, a maker's certificate or a test report is required. Your superintendent and class society decide, and certificates cannot always be added later.

Delivery point and urgency

Give the port or anchorage, vessel name, local agent and arrival date, or the yard address. Say if the vessel is waiting, as that decides air freight or local stock.

Tests before dispatch

List the tests you need: pressure test, bench test, balancing report, crack detection by dye penetrant or magnetic particle, or a running test for motors, with reports and photos before you pay.

Certificates, class rules and test records

Class society certificate

Issued by the vessel's class society, usually an IACS member for ocean-going ships, for parts its rules cover. Tell us early, as certified new parts take longer.

SOLAS Chapter V

Sets carriage requirements for navigation equipment on ships in international trade. Replacement radars, GNSS, AIS and gyros must be of an approved type and meet the flag state's rules.

IEC 60945 and IEC 61162

IEC 60945 covers general requirements and tests for marine navigation and radio equipment; IEC 61162 covers the data interfaces between units. Check both when mixing makes.

Test records

Shell and seat pressure tests, such as those in API 598, for reconditioned valves; dye penetrant or magnetic particle testing for cracks in heads, liners and shafts; bench tests for pumps and injectors; balancing for rotors. These reports are the evidence of condition.

What moves the price of ship spare parts

• Condition: new parts from the maker cost most, new replacement parts less, and reconditioned parts least, with shorter warranties.
• Engine age and rarity: parts for older or less common engines are harder to find, which raises the price of good stock.
• Certificates and testing: class and maker certificates, balancing, bench tests and crack detection add cost and time.
• Size and weight: crankshafts, liners and deck machinery cost more to handle, pack and ship.
• Urgency: air freight for a waiting vessel, or a launch to an anchorage with port paperwork, can cost more than the part.

Lead times and delivery

Reconditioned parts held in stock around Chattogram can often be inspected and dispatched within days. New parts from stock in Bangladesh or the region usually take 1 to 3 weeks; parts ordered from the maker abroad typically take 3 to 8 weeks, or less by air freight for urgent cases. Parts needing class certificates or overhaul take longer. Roptan confirms availability, condition and dates in the quote.

We deliver to vessels at berth or anchorage in Chattogram and Mongla through the seller, to shipyards and dockyards, and to warehouses anywhere in Bangladesh. Parts are packed against rust and damage, each tagged with its part number, with photos and test reports sent before dispatch. You receive a packing list, test reports, certificates where ordered, the warranty or return terms and a VAT invoice (Mushak 6.3) for local sales.

Buying ship spare parts for export

Foreign buyers source reconditioned engine, turbocharger, pump, valve and deck machinery parts from the recycling yards around Chattogram. Send part numbers or engine details; we check identity and condition, share photos, measurements and test reports for your approval before payment, and can arrange an independent inspection. Parts ship FOB Chattogram by sea, crated with rust protection, or by air from Dhaka, with a commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and the bill of lading or air waybill.
