Hilti Tool Service Terms and Conditions

1. Hilti Tool Service

If a defect occurs with a Hilti tool, Hilti will take care of it quickly, professionally and completely free of charge for up to 2 years from the date of purchase.

 After that we continue to prove the quality of our products by putting a limit on what a repair can cost – for the lifetime of the tool – that is the entire estimated lifecycle of a Hilti tool.

 We even provide you a 20 years manufacturer’s warranty against manufacturing defects. That’s not just reassuring to know, it’s unique in this field.

Tools left at a Hilti Store will be collected the following working day. Day 1 of the speed promise is the day the tool is collected for straight repairs and if a customer needs a quotation, then Day 1 starts from the moment we received a purchase order and proof of payment.
