Had a mk 2 it cracked got mk3 ok for now but yer never look back

Well now the mark three has been out for awhile everything has gone quiet about zigzag failures so have petzl finally got this problem fixed has anyone any info on mk3 faults ??????

Hi whats the general price for a kit loler cheers

Loler uk whats your web addresss plz

Hi mike lyon had it said all ok happens straight out of the box didnt get mine back for over a week due to dont know what exactly complained so they gave me a new zz to ease my mind. Now that one is same after onky three weeks doing burs is part of petzl checks list still shouldnt happen that quick

Also yes fine sandpaper is not a file but they do the same remove material of strength from an item

Well as i understand it if two peices of metal make contact with each other enought to cause damage iie wear that is impact and if this is ongoing it may cause a fracture causing item to structualy fail

Sorry before im told off the actual remedy from petzl is use a fine grade sandpaper to remove burs but this still slowly reduces thickness of the side walls

Were u doing course bud

Ok so straight out the box the bottom link hits the main body and starts to wear away at the main body causing burs petzl says just file these burs down loler examiner say they are stress raisers and how far can you file down before its too much hense fail,im also concerned about overtime impact fractutres What do you think

Hi if any loler examiners have lolered a zz yet pls pls msg me as i need advice had a zz fail examination

Just an update have been told wear marks are normal and occure straight out of box also told to file down any burs but they replaced mine and marks already there oh yes and had one fail loler exam for this reason

also if those marks are caused from the zigzag hitting the body that has to be a design flaw that will just get worse do you not think

did yours crack on side plates then ?????

yer sorry cant take another on that zz as gone off to be inspected the wear marks by the pulley behind lip of pulley rope doesnt reach that point jagged rough edges to them
