Limited Warranty
The warranty and return policy for all products sold hereunder (the "Products") is determined by the original equipment
manufacturer and/or supplier. All products sold by WFS Ltd. (“WFS”) are warranted only to the extent of the
manufacturer’s/supplier’s warranty, and only to purchasers ("Buyers") for resale or for use in their business in Canada.
Products are warranted against defects in workmanship or materials only in accordance with the individual
manufacturer’s warranty policy. Manufacturers of certain Products, such as fasteners, do not provide a warranty period.
Any part which is determined by WFS to be defective in material or workmanship and returned to a WFS branch or
authorized service location as WFS designates, shipping costs prepaid, will be repaired or replaced, at WFS’ sole option,
as the Buyer’s exclusive remedy.
Warranty Disclaimer
WFS has made a diligent effort to illustrate and describe the Products in its catalogues accurately; however, such
illustrations and descriptions are for the sole purpose of identification, and do not express or imply a warranty or
condition that the Products are merchantable, or fit for a particular purpose or that the Products will necessarily
conform to the illustrations or descriptions. The Products are sold to Buyers on an "as is, where is" basis, and no
warranty or condition or affirmation of fact, express or implied, other than as set forth in the limited warranty above is
made or authorized by WFS. Any and all representations and warranties, express or implied, legal, statutory,
conventional or otherwise with respect to the Products (including, implied warranties as to merchantability or fitness for
a particular purpose), whether pursuant to the Sale of Goods Act of any province or otherwise, are hereby expressly
excluded and disclaimed.
Limitation of Liability
Any liability for indirect, special, exemplary, punitive, consequential or incidental damages is expressly disclaimed by
WFS. WFS’ liability in all events for all damages, losses and causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) shall
be limited in the aggregate to, and shall not exceed, the purchase price paid by the Buyer for the Product in question.
Prompt Disposition
WFS will make a good faith effort for prompt correction or other adjustment with respect to any Product which proves
to be defective within the warranty period. Before returning any Product, write or call the WFS location from which the
Product was purchased, giving date and number of original invoice and describing the defect. The WFS branch will give
instruction as to the method of returning the Product.
Product Suitability
Many provinces and locations have laws, codes and regulations governing sales, construction, installation and/or use of
products for certain purposes, which may vary from those in neighboring areas. While WFS attempts to ensure that its
Products comply with such codes, it cannot guarantee compliance, and cannot be responsible for how Products are
installed or used. Before purchase and use of a Product, please review the Product, and applicable national, provincial
and local laws, codes and regulations, and be sure that the Product, as well as its installation and use, complies with
them.
Hazardous Materials Information
For the information of Buyers, WFS has obtained Material Safety Data Sheets ("MSDS") for all "controlled products"
within the meaning of the Hazardous Products Act (Canada) and the Controlled Products Regulations made under that
Act, in respect of Products offered for sale by WFS. The MSDS in question conform with the requirements of provincial
occupational health and safety legislation which regulates "hazardous material" and the applicable Workplace
Hazardous Materials Information Systems Regulations made thereunder. Such MSDS are available on request. The
information and recommendations contained in the applicable MSDS supplied/prepared by the manufacturer are
considered to be accurate and reliable. However, WFS makes no warranty with respect to the accuracy or reliability of
the information or the suitability of the recommendations. WFS disclaims any and all liability to any user thereof.
Cross-Reference Information
Product cross-reference comparisons do not imply that all products compared are available, or in the case of functional
equivalency, that past performance and other characteristics are comparable. For critical applications, review
specifications prior to purchase.
Manufacturers’ Warranties and Sales Literature

warranties may supersede or exclude other stated warranties. Copies of such warranties are supplied with the Product
or are available from the manufacturer. WFS may also furnish sales brochures and other literature of the manufacturer.
WFS assumes no responsibility for such warranties or sales literature by performing this service.
