Petzl has discovered ropes can be mounted incorrectly in the rope adjuster of certain GRILLON products, preventing the products from successfully performing their blocking function, which can result in a risk of injury. Therefore, Petzl has requested that vendors and customers stop sales and use of GRILLON products manufactured between October and December of 2023.
A detailed description of the affected products, including model and serial numbers, and the inspection process, can be found here.
According to Petzl, eight affected products have been detected in a single manufacturing batch, and no injuries have been reported.
