CPSC, Wild Country Ltd. Announce Recall of Helium Carabiners

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

The carabiner gate may come open under a heavy load, which will significantly reduce the strength of the carabiner. The carabiner could break if the climber falls, posing a risk of serious injury or death to the climber.

What to do

Consumer should call the firm for instructions on returning these carabiners. The firm will reimburse shipping expenses and send the consumer a replacement.
