Often, when products are discontinued, we must buy from brokers

(non-official stocks / independent distributors). We provide a safety net

by selecting our brokers carefully and by extending the warranty of the

products regardless of the year they were manufactured.

Fight counterfeiting and limit the risks for our customers.

Counterfeit detection is important but can easily be avoided by the choice of reliable partners within the supply chain, including reliable and certified brokers.

An internal procedure was set up over the past 14 years in order to eradicate the risks of counterfeiting:Risk level checked by part number.We are members of 3 systems of exchange, ratings and comments on brokers worldwide.Vendors strictly selected using internal and proprietary criteria.In-house visual, dimensional and chemical tests.Electrical tests available upon request (examples below)COST : from $250 to $750 depending on the tests to be performed

Our customers are always aware of the origin of the parts (official or broker) and all products are covered by a 1 year warranty REGARDLESS OF THE DATE-CODE ... once approved and certified by our Quality Control Department.

In order to AVOID AND DETECT Counterfeit Electronic Parts, we follow and apply SAE Aerospace AS5553 Standards mixed with our

ISO9001:2008 QMS in order to meet our customer requirements (target price, delivery, date-code restrictions...). About 20% of counterfeits

are detected simply par "touch" and experience (these parts usually pass all electrical and visual test).
