Extreme Engineering Recalls Wall Climbing Cable Assemblies Due to Fall Hazard

Date: June 9, 2006
Company: Extreme Engineering, of Newcastle, Calif.
Status: Ongoing
Source: CPSC

What You Should Do

Stop using this product immediately. Do not consume, use, or distribute it.

Consumers should stop using the recalled cable assemblies immediately and contact Extreme Engineering to arrange for inspection details and possible replacement of the cable assembly.

Affected Products

These cable assemblies are used by wall climbers in auto-belay and auto-zip devices to prevent a climber from free-falling. The cable assemblies are made up of a stainless steel cable eye, and 1/4-inch galvanized wire rope. The recalled cable assemblies have date codes 1-06, 2-06, or 3-06 etched onto the cable eye.

Why Was This Recalled?

The cable eye, or round metal tube that holds the cable, could have a fracture, reducing the overall strength of the cable assembly. If the cable assembly were to fail, this would result in a free-fall hazard for the climber.

Where Was This Sold?

Distribution information not available.
