Precautionary inspection check SKYLOTEC climbing harness SAM 2.0

Neuwied 23.09.2020 - SKYLOTEC stands for the highest level of safety in industry and mountaineering and guarantees this through high standards and regular internal tests. During a routine inspection, a missing structural seam was discovered on a SKYLOTEC SAM 2.0 harness.

Once this defect was detected, SKYLOTEC immediately initiated a complete analysis and quality control of the harness production and carried out a 100% follow-up inspection of all SAM 2.0 harness stocks. During this inspection, no other harnesses with this fault type could be identified.

In order to meet the company's demand for the highest safety and quality standards, the measure of an inspection call is nevertheless taken as a precaution.

Since the absence of a structural seam is obvious and can be easily recognized by the user, it is not necessary to return the harnesses. End customers, dealers, professional users and rental stations are therefore requested to visually inspect their SAM 2.0 climbing harnesses manufactured between January and April 2020 at the main structural seams.

Please check that the structural seams of your harness are correctly located according to the marked areas in the picture below.
