Can't swear to it, but I had a W.W.Griggs awhile back that broke but no warranty. But then the rod was $29.
This one at $56. I am betting has no warranty either, but this is a factory defect.
Probably cost more to send it back then to fix it yourself.
I repaired several reel seats in my time, and I am no rod builder, but I know you want to make sure you have more glue at the end than at the front, so when you slide it on, it spreads the glue and you don't end up with a big glob. Plus tape is good on the threads.
