Description
The 2010 Year HSS Ultra-Lite carabiners were supplied with the HSS-300 Ultra-Lite full body climbing safety harness. The carabiners are black with a pin sticking out of the gate. They have "CB20101" stamped on the side opposite the gate.
Hazard
The pins in the carabiners can detach, causing a climbing strap to break free from the safety harness. This can result in the climber falling.
Remedy
Consumers should immediately stop using the carabiners and return them to the company for a free replacement.
Incidents and injuries
The company is aware of two reports of the carabiner pins detaching. No falls or injuries have been reported.
