Limited Lifetime Warranty & Returns Policy
However, as with any purchase, sometimes you might need to return a product.
Accordingly, SilverBullet Tools has a:
- Limited Lifetime Warranty
- Returns & Refunds Policy
Limited Lifetime Warranty
SilverBullet products are fully guaranteed to the original owner against defects in materials, workmanship and manufacturing for the lifetime of the product. If a product ever fails due to a manufacturing defect, even after extended use, we will repair the product, without charge, or replace it, at our discretion. This warranty does not cover damage caused by accident, improper care, negligence, normal wear and tear over extended time and use. Damage not covered under warranty can be repaired for a reasonable rate and a fee will be charged for return shipping.
Examples of what we cover:
- Faulty welds
- Improper manufacturing (poor tolerances, interface issues)
Examples of what is not covered:
- Broken tips / tensioners
- Bent or snapped tips
- Lost parts
Important note about picking tips and tensioners:
The tension and picking tips are made from 17-4PH Stainless Steel - one of the hardest grades of stainless steel available. All tips are tested in the factory to withstand over 50x standard use torque loads.
As with any precision tool, patience and delicacy are key. Forcing the tool will not only make picking harder, but will also invalidate your warranty.
For warranty evaluation, your product must be returned directly to SilverBullet Tools Warranty Department:
All shipping to Warranty must be pre-paid and insured. SilverBullet Tools cannot be liable for lost in-bound packages.
What does "lifetime" mean?
Our products are covered under warranty, to the original owner, for the lifetime of the product. For the SilverBullet, we are bound by the warranty provided by the factory - five years - although the tool has been built to last for many, many more.
