I believe it is correct to ask where parts are made.
In the military...I was checking some hardware...and found defective bolts that had just come in from the supplier.
They were supposed to be stainless...but a magnet stuck to them...not to the old ones in the bin...only the new ones.
Further investigation revealed the supplier had sub-contracted all future deliveries to an off-shore source.
They lost the contract immediately and a new source was found...it took us weeks to go through all the past hardware to check it all.
Always question parts...look carefully ...ask if not satisfied with anything....it is your baby...and you are the last line of defence.
