Penn Machine Company will warrant 5 years
service before reprofiling is required. Gears
are to be reprofiled to industry standards when
wear exceeds 0.010" of tooth profile (.020" of
tooth thickness at the pitch line).
In one study, the average service life (before
reprofiling) of an OEM supplied 62-tooth gear on
a Class I railroad was 57 months. If the Super
Gear needs reprofiling before the end of the
fifth year, PENN MACHINE will reprofile the gear
on a "No Charge" basis F.O.B. our Blairsville,
PA plant.
Also, Penn Machine Company warrants the Super
Gear for 5 years against defect in material
and/or workmanship. Gear failure occurring in
the first 5 years will be replaced F.O.B.
Blairsville, PA after completion of defect
analysis.
Replacement, if required, under this warranty
would be handled on a pro-rated basis by month
from original date of shipment based on actual
price at time of claim. The month of shipment
will be stamped on every gear, which will be the
starting date for this warranty. Any gears on
which this warranty is exercised become the
property of Penn Machine and shall be made
available for Penn's disposition.
