Safety first: Black Diamond starts voluntary product recall

Basically, it concerns carabiners/quickdraws and nylon runners. In the case of one of the carabiners, the gate has not been manufactured properly. With the nylon runners, a retailer discovered one product that it was held together by a tape splice.

Retailers and consumers are urged to check out further information provided by Black Diamond at these links for 'Runner' and 'Carabiner'. These websites answer the most important questions and explain which specific items should be returned to a retailer or the manufacturer.
