ESAB products are backed by some of the best warranties around.

At ESAB, customer satisfaction is our number one priority. Your ESAB product is backed by one of the most comprehensive warranty programs in the industry. You can feel confident that with the purchase of an ESAB product, you have selected the best quality, supported by the best customer service available. Our ESAB Warranty will keep you covered.

What’s covered by the ESAB Warranty?
The ESAB Warranty covers every piece of ESAB welding equipment, every filler metal, every gas apparatus, and every plasma machine – every product that ESAB sells in the US, Canada, and Mexico, excluding the following: mechanized cutting machines, scarfing machines, automation equipment, spare parts, consumables, special orders, re-manufactured items, minimum run products, and freight damage.

Product warranty periods.
Properly stored ESAB filler metals are warranted to be fully serviceable and free from any defects in materials or workmanship for one full year after the date of shipment from ESAB. The warranty period for ESAB welding equipment starts on the invoice date of purchase by the original end user, or from the date of manufacture if the original invoice cannot be produced.

Filing an ESAB Warranty claim.
For all warranty claims, Buyer should contact ESAB with all relevant details such as ESAB part number, manufacturing date code, heat and control numbers, serial number, complete description of the difficulty encountered, length of time in service, the conditions under which the Goods failed, and original purchase price paid.

ESAB will determine whether to have the Goods returned for inspection and repair or handled in some other manner (for example: shipping replacement Goods "no charge" or issuing credit). Credit for Welding Equipment/Automated Cutting Systems may be subject to a depreciation charge based on length of time the Goods were in service. Written approval in the form of a Return Authorization form ("RA") will be issued if Buyer is to return Goods for repair or replacement. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ARE ANY GOODS TO BE RETURNED WITHOUT PRIOR WRITTEN AUTHORIZATION FROM ESAB. A copy of the RA must accompany the return shipment of the Goods to ESAB, and the Goods must be received within 30 days of issuance of the RA. Any RA remaining open after 30 days will be cancelled, and the Buyer will be billed for any "no charge" replacement Goods supplied. Any Goods subsequently returned against a cancelled RA will be returned to the Buyer freight collect.

If a returned Good is determined to have failed for reasons other than defects in materials or workmanship within the scope of the warranty policy or if the applicable warranty has expired, Buyer will be contacted for disposition. If such a Good is to be returned to Buyer, freight charges will be borne by Buyer, and Buyer also will be billed for any "no charge" replacement Goods supplied during the investigation of the complaint.
