Rod failure that arises strictly from defect in our workmanship will be repaired at no cost by Redmond Rods. The owner of the rod is responsible for shipping the rod to and from Redmond Rods. If the rod is unable to be repaired, a new rod can be constructed for the retail cost of components and materials, plus all related shipping costs. A detailed cost summary of itemized materials will be provided. Normal wear and tear, as well as damage by abuse, is not covered under warranty. Redmond Rods reserves the right to determine if a failure is caused by defect in workmanship, abuse, normal wear and tear, or defect in manufactured material. Please contact us if a failure occurs so we can assess the cause.

Rod blanks are covered by the warranty offered through the blank manufacturer. Breakage caused by user error or abuse is not covered under manufacturer warranty and accounts for the majority of rod failure. Please see the article in the links page of our website that looks at some of the common ways a rod can break through user error. This is a great article and can help minimize breakage. If a break occurs due to structural failure or defect of the blank, it may be covered by the manufacturer. Every manufacturer has a different warranty and coverage is ultimately decided by the manufacturer of the rod blank upon inspection of the failed rod. A break from blank defect is extremely rare. Most breaks from blank defect will occur within the first few uses of a rod.
