30. Product Safety Advisory 2/13/23 Wild Country Superlight Rocks Recall VOLUNTARY RECALL NOTICE ISSUED 02/13/2023
Hazard: Wild Country has recently learned that when single cable Superlight Rocks are exposed to maritime seaside conditions with high concentrations of salt, and/or humid climate with salty atmosphere for an extended period of time, corrosion inside of the ferrule (the swage covered in plastic that is labelled with the name of the product) can occur. This can significantly reduce the breaking strength of the chocks and may therefore become dangerous for a climber in the event of a fall from height. Remedy: Dealers and consumers should immediately stop using all Superlight Rocks Nos. 1- 6 and contact Wild Country for instructions to obtain a replacement. This recall does not apply to any other Wild Country Rocks, other than the Superlight Rocks Nos. 1-6 produced prior to January 2023. Wild Country Rocks, Classic Rocks, Rock Centrics, and Superlight Offset Rocks are not subject to this voluntary recall. SUBJECT TO RECALL SUPERLIGHT ROCK with a single cable wire. SUPERLIGHT ROCK: 40-RSL, 40- RSLSET Batch codes affected by the recall 01A1117 01A1217 01A1219 03A1219 02A0221 Consumer Contact: Wild Country is in the process of setting up the recall process system and expects to have the recall system up and running within one week.
