Metal Price Surcharge Brass

Metal prices have changed drastically over the recent months. We have delayed corresponding price adjustments as long as we were able to, but we are now forced to apply surcharges to all parts made of brass.

As the current market situation is still very unclear we need to react flexibly to further developments. We therefore ask you for your understanding for the following surcharges which will apply for deliveries starting from 01.09.2010:

15 % for hose fittings and couplings of brass with Spannfix and Spannloc as per catalogue pages 221 to 255.

25 % for tank and pipe fittings made of brass like in catalogue section 3 and 5.

We commit ourselves to reduce/revoke the surcharges as soon as the metal prices come back to a normal level.

We expect to have a new detailed price list out beginning 2011 which will reflect all further developments.
