CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE POLICY
The business of The Lincoln Electric Company is manufacturing and selling high
quality welding equipment, consumables, and cutting equipment. Our challenge is to
meet the needs of our customers and to exceed their expectations. On occasion,
purchasers may ask Lincoln Electric for advice or information about their use of our
products. We respond to our customers based on the best information in our
possession at that time. Lincoln Electric is not in a position to warrant or guarantee
such advice and assumes no liability, with respect to such information or advice. We
expressly disclaim any warranty of any kind, including any warranty of fitness for any
customer’s particular purpose, with respect to such information or advice. As a matter
of practical consideration, we also cannot assume any responsibility for updating or
correcting any such information or advice once it has been given, nor does the
provision of information or advice create, expand or alter any warranty with respect to
the sale of our products.
Lincoln Electric is a responsive manufacturer, but the selection and use of specific
products sold by Lincoln Electric is solely within the control of, and remains the sole
responsibility of the customer. Many variables beyond the control of Lincoln Electric
affect the results obtained in applying this type of fabrication methods and service
requirements.
