You're welcome!

thank you.

 

The recalled rings were manufactured by Kong from Italy and we have had confirmation from our supplier of Edelrid products, that Edelrid do not have any association with Kong.

 

Hope this info. gives you total confidence in your Edelrid friction saver.

Anybody know if this also relates to the bridge ring on Kommit Dragonfly II harness's? Just checked mine and there's no rating stamp or logo on it, just a number (8).

I'm not sure whether or not Komet manufacture their own rings or buy them in, but I would think you can have peace of mind knowing that as one of the largest harness manufacturers, if Komet had any issues with their bridge rings, they would have been very quick to advise their customers. I'm sure that Komet will be well aware of the Kong issue as bad news usually travels pretty fast.

Just got confirmation from Edelrid directly (called since I live in Germany) they do produce the rings themselves (let a select company nearby produce). They do additional tests on their rings now to be sure and will give a statement on their website about next week since many are asking now.
