Dear Newport Brass Partners,
Newport Brass is experiencing a combination of unforeseen circumstances including unexpected machine downtime and stronger than forecasted demand that has negatively impacted delivery performance and order shipping.
I sincerely apologize for your order delays and for any hardships this has caused with customers. Brasstech is taking immediate actions to increase production and return to normal lead times.
Current lead times will be extended temporarily as per the following:
| Product Line | Temporary Lead Times |
| Newport Brass® & Brasstech ReadyShip™ | 2 Weeks (from 1 Week) |
| Newport Brass® & Brasstech NON ReadyShip™ | 7 Weeks (from 4 Weeks) |
| Ginger® | 1 Week (UNCHANGED) |
| Newport Brass® Rough Valves | 1 Day (UNCHANGED) |
Although this may not be the news we want to hear at this time, at least we have this information available to communicate with customers ordering Newport Brass products.
Please refer to the attachments for further information.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Thank you for your continued support.
