Tim S. / Buyer

“I know this will sound bad, but I rarely think about Magnetic Sensors as everything runs so smoothly. ”

Janet B. / PM

“ We currently have a blanket order for some magnetic pick ups. I had projected one of the ship dates out too far and needed the product sooner than I had originally asked. Your team was quick to help and moved up the ship date for us. I know that isn’t necessarily always possible but we were thankful for the speedy help!  ”
