Due to issues in receiving a timely reply regarding mailed requests for repair or calibration services, we are requiring that you send the RMA and PO form with the tester or via email (please use the form for Repair or Calibration request) at the time of request. If we receive a tester without this documentation, the tester will be returned* without service.
*All shipping fees are the responsibility of the customer.
When your Ames Tester needs repair, always send it back to the manufacturer for repair. We repair Ames and DoAll Portable Hardness Testers that are model number 12000* or newer. Older testers may be repaired but not certified because of their age. We charge a non-refundable $100.00 repair evaluation fee which will be applied to your repair cost if you choose to proceed with repair after evaluation.
*Please note, if you would like to have an older tester calibrated or repaired, we can offer the service without certification of the tester. This only applies to testers with a serial number newer than 10,000
