Knowledge Centre Questions

Who writes these guides?

The Sinoware team, using the figures from our own product specifications. Where a guide quotes a number, it is a number from a product we make.

Can you advise on a specification we are working to?

Yes. Send it by email or WhatsApp and we will tell you what fits and what does not.

Do you publish datasheets?

Yes, in the download centre, along with a full product catalogue.

Send it over. Specification questions get a specification answer, not a sales pitch.
