Every KINON clutch is covered by a 12-month limited warranty against manufacturing defects, starting from the date of delivery.
What Is Covered
Defects in materials or workmanship — for example: a cracked sheave or housing out of the box, a broken spring or weight pin under normal use, incorrect machining that prevents proper installation or belt alignment, or missing/incorrect components in the assembly.
What Is Not Covered
- Normal wear. Clutch weights, springs, bushings, rollers, and friction surfaces are wear components. Gradual wear from normal operation is expected and is not a defect.
- Abuse or overload. Damage from racing, competition, commercial or rental use, sustained overloading, deep sand/mud/water operation beyond the vehicle's rated conditions, or any use inconsistent with the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations.
- Improper installation. Damage caused by incorrect installation, missing clutch puller/tool usage, wrong torque, misalignment, or modification of the clutch or vehicle.
- Secondary damage. Failures caused by pairing a new clutch with a worn or incorrect-spec belt, a damaged mating clutch, or other faulty drivetrain components. Belts are consumables and are not covered.
- Unauthorized disassembly or modification of the clutch assembly.
How to Make a Claim
- Contact us through the Contact page within the warranty period, with your order number.
- Provide clear photos or video of the failed part and a description of the symptoms and operating conditions.
- Our technical team will review the claim. If a manufacturing defect is confirmed, we will send a replacement part or issue a refund. In some cases we may ask you to return the part for inspection.
Good to Know
This warranty covers the replacement part only; it does not cover labor, towing, or consequential damage to other vehicle components. Keep your order confirmation as proof of purchase.
