Notice of Voluntary Recall

 

 

September 23, 2005

 

Airway Heights, WA – In cooperation with the US Consumer Product Safety Commision (CPSC), Omega Pacific is voluntary recalling a small percentage of Five-O Screwgate locking carabiners built between November and December of 2004.

 

Carabiners affected by this recall can be potentially opened under moderate loads even when properly locked and must be returned for replacement.

 

Only carabiners marked with the lot stamp “VT” are affected. The lot number can be found on the backside of the spine and is clearly identified. Do not return any lots other than “VT” as no other lots are subject to this issue. No other models are affected. Only Five-O locking carabiners with the lot stamp “VT” (see our website: http://www.omegapac.com/op_climbing_notices.html for photos and more information) are considered under this action.

 

Please do not return carabiners to retailers. Instead, please ship any affected carabiners directly to Omega Pacific. Please mark all packages with “Attn: Warranty Returns, RA 728.” Be sure to include your name and shipping address where we can deliver a replacement Five-O locking carabiner.

 

All returns or inquiries can be directed to:

 

Omega Pacific Customer Service

11427 W. 21st Avenue

Airway Heights, WA 99001

Attn: Warranty Returns, RA 728

 

If you have any questions, please call us at 800-360-3990 or email at info@omegapac.com

 

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this may cause.
