Returns

A faulty part, five steps

A complete request is settled in days; a request with no label and no photograph stops at the first question. Here is exactly what to provide.

  1. 01

    Read the label

    The SKU, the batch number and the originating plant are on the part label and etched into the clamps. Without them a part cannot be tied to a production batch, and the request stops there.

  2. 02

    Photograph three things

    The whole part, the defect close up, and the label legible. Three photographs settle most cases without a physical return, and save paying freight for nothing.

  3. 03

    Open the request

    By email, with the photographs, the order reference and a description of how the part was used when it failed: span, load, duration. That last line is what separates a manufacturing defect from an overload.

  4. 04

    Wait for the RMA number

    Issued within 2 working days. Do not ship anything before you have it: a parcel with no RMA number cannot be matched to a case, and it waits on the dock.

  5. 05

    Ship with the number visible

    The RMA number on the outside of the parcel. A decision within 10 working days of receipt: replacement, repair or a reasoned refusal. Never silence.

Before you ship

No return is accepted without an RMA number. A parcel arriving without one cannot be matched to a case. It waits on the dock, and nobody knows whose it is.
