Lyon Equipment Lyon are the UK Petzl supplier and will only be happy to help, also best to contact the dealer you bought them from.

 

No issues in replacing them at all if its in regards to the cracking etc.

If this piece of kit was to fail catastrophically would it end up with the climber being on the deck?

Basically Jon they're not tough enough to endure the rigours of climbing in some cases. They shouldn't be being shock loaded as they suppose the climber.

Yes. I think there is only one instance though where a climber has been injured. All I've heard is second hand info though.

 

This device attaches the climber to his line. There are plenty using them with no problems mind.

I think just taking/posting them back to the retailer works. Are they mark 3's?

No there the Mk2's we replaced the Mk1s after the first safety recall. I know the one has only been used several times, and that was by me, I climb as little as I need to these days, and I prefer my old fashioned twenty year old system! Never failed me once!😆

My flab is ghasted! This piece of kit seems to pop up on here way to often. I'd use one of those prusick things to be on the safe side...... From someone that ain't got a clue what he's talking about.
