SECOND! aluminum ring failure

[Tobe]

Friends,

I've been informed that ANOTHER forged aluminum ring has failed, and miraculously, the climber wasn't hurt. PLEASE, please, please help me distribute this potentially life-saving message into the corners of our community. Regardless of where you bought it, send it in and we'll replace it.

I know that its different stroks for different folks but I don't know how people justify aluminum. All our clips and snaps are steel, maybe I'm old school but I sure feel alot more comfortable after seeing post like this one.
