Petzl BALL-LOCK locking system information

Postby hank moon » Jul 12, 2006 1:01 pm

Hello

Petzl has identified a quality issue with a limited number of the M34 BL Am'D BALL-LOCK and M36 BL WILLIAM BALL-LOCK carabiners with the new metal locking sleeve: the sleeve may be unlocked without pressing the green button, so the locking system acts as a TWIST-LOCK, instead of a BALL-LOCK.

Please see
