Straightpoint<\/a> Inc. has extended the warranty period on its force measurement, load monitoring and suspended weighing load cell range to two years, effective January 1 2015.<\/p>\n

The unprecedented move to double the previous 12-month warranty period underpins the quality and reliability that are hallmarks of the robust product range. It gives users additional value and peace of mind, at no extra cost, when putting load cells and other products to use in oil and gas; shipping; construction; mining; and military applications, to name just a few of the demanding industries that are increasingly embracing Straightpoint equipment.<\/p>\n

Straightpoint director David Ayling said: \u201cWe believe that Straightpoint is the only load cell manufacturer and supplier to offer this extended warranty at no extra cost to the end user, which underlines our confidence in the quality and accuracy of all our products. Our research couldn\u2019t find another supplier offering a two-year warranty; we are immensely proud to associate such a long warranty period with our sales process.\u201d<\/p>\n

All Straightpoint products range between IP65 and IP67 or NEMA 4 and 6 (IP and NEMA codes classify and rate degrees of protection) and are built to\u00a0withstand\u00a0water ingress and a temperature range from 14 to 122\u00baF. All component materials, such as the aluminum block\u00a0itself,\u00a0are aerospace grade with full traceability. The absence of an antenna, which can be vulnerable to damage, further enhances durability.\"IMG_6250\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ayling added: \u201cWe have such faith in the manufacturing process of our products and their performance which, in turn, gives the purchaser increased trust in the equipment. We are aware of load cells in the field that are over 20 years old\u2014that\u2019s older than some of the apprentices working with them.\u201d<\/p>\n

The warranty applies to any Straightpoint product registered via a simple online form on the website (www.straightpoint.com\/extended-warranty) including the new version of the Radiolink Plus wireless tension load cell, shackle load cell and other force measurement equipment.\"IMG_6193\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Members of the end user community, who will benefit most from this increased warranty, are served by Straightpoint\u2019s network of distributors across the world. Pieter van Duijn, the commercial director at Van Gool, based in the Netherlands, said: \u201cStraightpoint products are one of the best in our program.\u00a0In our experience their load cells are very robust and extremely well manufactured. The doubled warranty at no extra cost shows how reliable the products are and will give our clients even more reason to invest in Straightpoint products.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
