When building our dialysis machines we use a lot of little nuts and bolts that are absolute in the successful running of the machines. The nuts and bolts provided by pencom have been proved to be outstanding in quality. This is a very important attribute because the machines we build are for patients who require at home dialysis care. These patients' lives depending on the success of these machines, indirectly depending on the nuts and bolts provided by pencom. Great job manufacturing Pencom!

Strengths: Pencom supplies a wide variety of our building material, making it a great place to go for a majority of our supplies needed to build our machines.

Needs to improve: Some nuts and bolts may arrive with damage such as stripping.

A Large Selection of Products.
