Hitachi Power Tools last week announced its new 10-Year lithium ion tool warranty. The company now offers an exclusive 10-year lithium ion tool warranty to the original purchaser on HXP Lithium Ion cordless tools.

The warranty is retroactive and applies to Lithium Ion tools purchased since their initial launch in August of 2006. Hitachi customers who purchased applicable cordless lithium ion tools before this 10-year warranty announcement will automatically be covered and are not required to register or re-register their tools.

Tool packaging will undergo a rolling design change to reflect the new 10-year warranty. In the meantime, existing packaging already produced and available for sale in the retail market may still show the 5-year warranty on the box. Regardless of the packaging, revised or not, Hitachi is covering all applicable lithium ion tools under the new warranty.

Categories of tools that are currently covered under this 10-year warranty include cordless lithium ion driver drills, cordless lithium ion hammer drills, cordless lithium ion impact drivers, cordless lithium ion impact wrenches, cordless lithium ion circular saws, cordless lithium ion jig saws, cordless lithium ion reciprocating saws and cordless lithium ion blowers.

Some exceptions do apply; cordless lithium ion grinders, cordless lithium ion rotary hammers and cordless lithium ion gas nailers are covered by Hitachi’s one-year warranty.
