MattMc Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 So from the looks of Petzl/CM's literature and from what I heard from a rep, the crush washers on the Quark/Aztar/Aztarex are single use and are to be replaced at every pick change. Anyone actual follow this? Any issue with multiple pick swaps on the same washer set? Seems like a not so good setup if one wants to use a 3mm for some delicate stuff and then swap over to a 4mm for mixed, etc. Or if one has a dedicated ice only pick set and a used mixed pick set to swap back and forth.

Farrgo Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Definately don't follow that. I keep all the hardwear with the picks. Haven't yet had the washer fail before the pick is toast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenderfour Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Crush washers are typically used to form a seal of some sort. My motorcycle has a simple crush washer on the drain plug. ALWAYS replace them if they fomr a seal. I doubt that the washer on the quark creates a seal. REuse it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
