Warranty Policy

12-month warranty on every tool and instrument we ship, written for overseas distributors, service chains and workshops.

12 Months of coverage

From the day the goods reach you — not the day they leave our factory.

24h First reply

A named contact answers your claim in writing within one working day.

Free Repair, replace or credit

Spare parts and replacement units are free once the defect is confirmed as ours.

∞ Lifetime support

Technical advice, manuals and cost-price spare parts long after the 12 months.

Make a Claim in 4 Steps

Our Warranty Promise

Every tool, instrument and accessory that leaves our factory in Shenzhen is covered by a 12-month limited warranty against manufacturing defects. If a product fails under normal professional use during that period, we repair it, replace it or credit it — whichever gets your workshop back to work fastest.

This policy is written for overseas buyers. The 12 months start when the goods reach you, not when they leave us; claims are handled in English by the same export team that took your order; and in most cases you will never have to ship anything back to China.

What Is Covered

Product groupCoverageWarranty starts
Hand tools — case openers, presses, screwdrivers, tweezers, holders, pliers12 months against defects in material and workmanshipDate of delivery to your address
Electronic instruments — timegraphers, demagnetisers, ultrasonic cleaners, waterproof testers12 months, including readings that drift outside the published toleranceDate of delivery
OEM and private-label production12 months as standard, extendable to 24 months on requestDate of delivery
Consumables and wear parts — blades, batteries, springs, belts, polishing compoundsCovered on arrival (DOA) onlyDate of delivery

The warranty follows the product, not the buyer. If you are a distributor, service chain or training school, you may pass the same 12-month coverage on to your own customers, and we will back you with spare parts and repair guidance for as long as it runs.

What Is Not Covered

  • Normal wear and tear, and consumable parts that are used up in daily work.
  • Damage caused by misuse, overloading, wrong voltage or unauthorised modification or repair.
  • Cosmetic marks, scratches or packing damage that do not affect the function of the tool.
  • Rust, corrosion or mould caused by improper storage or humidity after delivery.
  • Loss of profit, downtime or any other indirect cost arising from a defect.

What to Send with Your Claim

Open a claim using the four steps at the top of this page. To let our engineers judge it quickly, please include:

  • Order or proforma invoice number, and the date the goods arrived.
  • SKU or product name, plus the quantity affected.
  • Photos or a short video showing the defect — 10 to 20 seconds is usually enough.
  • One line describing what happened and at which working step.

Please do not ship anything back before we reply. A photo is often enough for us to confirm the cause, and return freight from overseas usually costs more than the tool itself.

How We Resolve It

Freight and Cost of a Claim

  • Replacement parts and replacement units are free of charge once the defect is confirmed as ours.
  • Replacements normally travel with your next order, so there is no extra freight. If you need them urgently we send them by courier and share the freight with you.
  • Returning defective goods to China is usually not required. Where a return is genuinely necessary we issue a return authorisation first and agree the freight case by case.

After the 12 Months

Our support does not stop when the warranty ends. For the working life of the product we still provide free technical advice by email, video call and WhatsApp, repair manuals and exploded diagrams, and spare parts at factory cost with no minimum quantity.

Extending the Warranty

Distributors, service chains and OEM partners can agree extended terms in their annual contract: 18 or 24 months of coverage, a spare-part allowance shipped in advance, and on-site or video training for your technicians. Tell us your annual volume and we will quote the option that fits.

Limitation

This warranty applies to products bought directly from Ruipai or from an authorised distributor, and is given in place of any other warranty. Our responsibility is limited to repairing, replacing or crediting the defective product. Nothing in this policy affects the statutory rights you hold in your own country.

Need It in Writing?

If you need the warranty wording written into your purchase contract, or a warranty certificate for a tender or customs file, ask our sales team and we will issue it together with your proforma invoice.
