Safety notice: CAPTO 11mm gray and CAPTO 13mm red

Please read this product inspection and safety notice from CMC regarding CAPTO 11 mm Gray and CAPTO 13 mm Red products.

CAPTO 11 mm Gray and CAPTO 13 mm Red

Part #: 336011 & 336013 all versions
Serial Numbers Affected: 23191-001 through 26085-034
Issue: Cam Set Screw Thread Locker

Through our internal inspection processes, CMC has found certain instances where the thread locker that secures the CAPTO cam set screw may not have fully cured. This potentially affects CAPTO 11 MM Gray (Part # 336011) and CAPTO 13 MM Red (Part # 336013) models from serial number 23191-001 through 26085-034 (See Figure 3 to locate Serial Number). If the set screw becomes fully unthreaded, the cam spring may fall out, causing the cam to not function as intended. We have corrected this issue for current and future CAPTO production.

For further information, please see CMC's Product Inspection & Safety Notice and watch the accompanying video.
