We partner manufacturing facilities globally, largely in Asia and support clients from design concept through to volume production.

With direct manufacturing supply, we do not add layers of administration, cost and margin commonplace with many other well known connector suppliers and distributors. We provide you with competitive advantage, value, reliability and service.

No, we do not routinely impose these, but sometimes need to sell product in pack quantities due to packaging and handling considerations. Similarly, if non-stocked parts are required which must be supplied from manufacturing, minimum pack quantities may apply. If applicable we will always make this information clear at time of quotation.
Stocked product typically ships the same day where orders are received by 2pm. Non stocked products are typically: Standard Cables upto 2-3 days, Connectors upto 4-6 weeks, Power Entry Modules upto 6 weeks. These are estimated delivery times, may be subject to variation but are confirmed at time of quotation and order acknowledgement.

Small packages may be charged more economically and heavy consignments may occur additional charges. Carriage charges are confirmed at time of quotation and/or order acknowledgement. For volume business customers requiring special carriage arrangements, please contact us to discuss.
