Search Tips

With thousands of items available on empiremachinery.com, and new products constantly being added, finding the product you're looking for may seem a bit daunting. To find exactly what you need, as quickly as possible, we provide three methods to search our store: A Store Directory, a Vendor Search, and an Advanced Search.

Store Directory Search

To make things easy, we've grouped out products into 15 categories: Abrasives, Automotivs, Brushes, Chemicals / Lubricants, Fasteners, Hydraulics, Janitorial, Ladders, Material Handling, Miscellaneous, Paints, Pipe Valve & Fittings, Safety Products, Tape, and tool. These categories are located at the top of every page in the site, with exception to the Welcome, Logon, and Order Confirmation screens.

When you select one of the product categories, that categories contents are displayed along the left-hand side column and in the middle of the screen. This category drill-down continues until you reach the lowest level of a category where a products item code will be displayed.

Advanced Search

If you are unsure what category a product you are looking for is contained, try our Advanced Product Search. Located at the top of every page, the Advanced Product Search allows you to specify your criteria for multiple fields at one time. Simply decide what's important to you for each option, and then scan the entire empiremachinery.com inventory for items that match.

Every now and then you may get a search that returns No Results. If you see this, please check to make sure that you spelled the keyword correctly. Although we will attempt to return the information that you want, misspelled words will not generally match anything in our database.
