Hazard

The anchor's resistance to load is insufficient. If a climber uses the anchor when climbing, there is a risk that the anchor won’t be able to stop a potential fall and the climber is therefore exposed to the risk of insufficient fall arrest when taking a fall and the consequences may be severe injuries. The product does not comply with the General Product Safety Regulation.
