What's covered

Only products explicitly listed and sold as genuine, brand-name OEM (original equipment manufacturer) products are covered by that manufacturer's own warranty. The terms, length, and conditions of that warranty are set entirely by the manufacturer, not by Machinist's Vault.

OEM-compatible / aftermarket parts — meaning parts manufactured to fit a given machine or brand without being made by that brand — are not covered under that original equipment manufacturer's warranty, since they were not produced by that manufacturer. Where an aftermarket part includes its own supplier warranty, that will be stated specifically on the product listing.

How a manufacturer warranty claim works

• Warranty claims on branded OEM products are handled according to that manufacturer's stated warranty process and timelines.
• Machinist's Vault can help direct you to the right manufacturer process and provide your purchase information to support a claim, but we are not the warrantor of branded OEM products we did not manufacture.
• Keep your order confirmation and any relevant part documentation — manufacturers typically require proof of purchase and date for warranty claims.

Limitation of liability

Machinist's Vault is a supplier of parts and equipment. We are not responsible for, and do not accept liability for, any damage to your machine, lost production time, labor costs, or any other direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from the installation, use, misuse, or failure of any part or product purchased from us, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

Improper installation, incorrect part selection, or use outside a part's specified operating parameters can affect both warranty eligibility and machine safety. If you're unsure whether a part is correct for your machine, confirm fitment using our Brand Compatibility Guide or contact us before installing.
