WARRANTIES


Safety

Hand tools are generally designed to perform one function — do not use them improperly. Screwdrivers are not chisels, adjustable wrenches are not hammers and pliers are not intended to replace wrenches. Each of our product groups contains specific safety tips for proper tool usage.  Additionally, wear appropriate clothing for the job, and always wear safety glasses. A special note on safety… use of hand sockets (chrome finish) with power drive (impact) equipment is a misuse of the tool and can result in serious injury.
