Sales Policy

Return Policy
We understand that buyer needs change and mistakes occasionally happen. When responsibility for the return lies with the Buyer, e.g. ordered in error, excess stock, discontinuance of product use, change in product specifications, etc. and unrelated to any Gripper Gasket LLC (“Seller”) performance, and the return is authorized by Seller, credit will be issued after receipt and approval of the quality of the goods, less a restocking charge of 25% or at Seller’s discretion. Should Buyer be in default in payment of any accounts with Seller, Seller is entitled, at its option, to apply Buyer’s credit or refund to reduce the balance of those accounts. Products returned requiring reconditioning expense will be assessed to the Buyer’s account. Buyer must return product within six (6) months of delivery.
Where responsibility for the return is determined to be with Seller, e.g. product did not meet specifications, wrong goods shipped, etc., Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be repair or replacement of the part or product or, at the discretion of the Seller, credit will be issued upon receipt, inspection and approval for credit by Seller. Buyer agrees that replacement or refund shall be in lieu of all other remedies at law or in equity, including but not limited to the right of indemnity. Returned goods shall be protected from damage while in Buyer’s possession. Except for will call sales, transportation in both directions is at Buyer’s expense. Under all circumstances return may be made only with Seller’s approval and immediately after Seller’s authorization.
Limited Warranty
We stand behind the quality of our products and want you to be completely satisfied with their performance. As such, Gripper Gasket LLC (“Seller”) warrants to the original Buyer that its products shall be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of one (1) year and will replace defective product returned to it within that time.
This warranty is exclusive, and Seller makes no other express or implied warranties or representations concerning the products (whether implied by statute or otherwise) and specifically excludes such warranties and representations to the fullest extent permitted by law. Seller specifically makes no warranty of merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose. Seller neither assumes nor authorizes any person to assume for it any other liability in connection with the sale or use of the goods sold hereunder. Seller’s liability shall be limited to the remedies, and shall not exceed the amounts, stated in these general terms and conditions of sale.
Limitation of Liability and Damages
Buyer assumes all risk and liability whatsoever resulting from the use of Seller’s goods. Seller’s liability for products Buyer claims and proves are defective or nonconforming shall in no event exceed the purchase price for the product against which claim is made. Seller shall not be liable for any defects that may be caused either by faulty materials used in the aggregate with Seller’s product and which are manufactured by others or by faulty construction, installation or use on the part of the Buyer or others. Under no circumstances shall Seller be responsible for Buyer’s removal or installation costs. All claims for breach of warranty or any claim relating to the product must be presented to Seller in writing within one (1) year after delivery to Buyer. Failure of Buyer to give such notice shall be deemed to be a waiver by Buyer of all claims with respect to the subject products. Seller and Buyer agree that Seller shall not in any event be liable for any liquidated damages, penalties, consequential, contingent, special or incidental damages whatsoever, resulting from the purchase, delivery, receipt, installation or use of Seller’s products, even if Seller shall have been advised of the possibility of such potential loss or damage, including, without limitation, liability for loss of use, loss of work in progress, down time, loss of revenue or profits, Buyer’s cost of cover, failure to realize anticipated savings, loss of Buyer’s property or any liability damage or loss occasioned by such product including injuries to persons or property under any tort, negligence, strict liability, contract, or other legal or equitable theory, including indemnity. Under no circumstances shall Buyer be entitled to a claim for damages of any kind for loss, damage or leakage after delivery is made in good condition. Under no circumstances shall Seller be liable for any delays in the performance of this Agreement or any order submitted by Buyer or Buyer’s agent, in whole or in part, from any cause, including but not limited to fire, earthquake, flood, rainstorm, strike lockouts, or other differences with workmen or employees, accidents, war, riots, embargoes, delays, losses, or damages in transportation, shortages of train cars or transportation carriers, fuel, labor or materials, delays of other companies or contractors, or similar contingencies. Seller reserves the right to refuse to make delivery in any instance where Seller believes delivery unsafe or impracticable by reason of any strike, lockout boycott or picketing or other labor disputes whether existing or threatened. No payment to Seller shall be withheld by Buyer pending adjustment of liability for the amount of any claim.
