2023: Precautionary inspection call "IRS QLOCK" safety harness (affected until production date 02/2023)

Products: IRS QLOCK harnesses from SKYLOTEC

Reason: During an inspection, faulty retaining rings were discovered on IRS QLOCK harnesses manufactured by SKYLOTEC. Since the absence of a retaining ring on the lock bolt is obvious, this can be easily detected by the user and therefore it is only necessary to return the IRS QLOCK harness to SKYLOTEC if the inspector is unsure.

Procedure: Please follow the procedure described here. If you are unsure or have any questions, we will be happy to help you. In this case, please contact [email protected].

In order to handle the return quickly and conveniently, you can create your return label here for a free submission via drop-off at a GLS parcel store. We cannot cover the costs for sending the goods via another parcel service provider. Please be sure to include our return form with your shipment.
