These terms govern use of kennametalusa.com and the inquiry workflows provided through this website. The website is intended for business buyers evaluating tooling, equipment and machinery supply programs.
Technical content, product references, catalog descriptions and service notes are provided for preliminary business evaluation only. A purchase, release, engineering approval or substitution decision must be confirmed through written commercial and technical documentation.
Submitting a form does not create a supply agreement, distributor agreement, warranty commitment or reserved capacity obligation. Kennametal may request drawings, usage history, quality requirements or commercial terms before issuing a quote or program recommendation.
Response content may include preliminary observations about tooling families, replacement paths, product availability, documentation scope or supply continuity. Those observations are intended to help a buyer decide whether a more formal review is appropriate. They should not be treated as a final manufacturing process, safety approval, regulatory conclusion or engineering release unless they are incorporated into a written agreement or approved technical document.
Buyers are responsible for confirming that tooling, equipment, materials, coatings and documents meet their own production, safety, regulatory and customer requirements before use.
Buyers should verify machine compatibility, tool holder interface, cutting parameters, workholding limits, coolant conditions, operator training, application environment and inspection method. If a buyer uses website information to compare products or plan a substitution, the buyer remains responsible for validating that decision against the actual part, drawing, material and production cell.
When buyers provide drawings, part numbers, forecasts, quality requirements or other technical materials, they represent that they have the right to share those materials for review. Unless a separate written agreement states otherwise, submitted materials are used only to evaluate the request, prepare a response, route the inquiry and support related business communication.
Website availability, content accuracy and response timing may vary. Formal obligations arise only from executed agreements, accepted purchase orders or written program documents.
Kennametal may update website content, navigation, forms, product descriptions and service language without notice. Continued use of the website after updates means the current terms apply to future website interactions.
