Commercial Integrity & Data Guarantee
Referral relationships do not influence technical rankings, specification metrics, or catalog inclusion on Strainetix.
- Zero Price Markup: Purchasing hardware via an outbound link on Strainetix does not alter the purchase price. Prices remain identical to navigating directly to the distributor.
- Parametric Sorting Neutrality: Catalog filters and comparison grids are driven strictly by normalized engineering parameters (e.g., non-linearity, bridge resistance, IP rating, rated capacity), not referral margin potential.
- Independent Directory Inclusion: Outbound links are assigned based on inventory availability and verified distributor networks, never manufacturer sponsorship.
