DB4 Stretch Y and DB4 Stretch Y Light · Brake cable set used in climbing – Via Ferrata set

The product poses a risk of injuries because the brake cables leading through the shock absorber are partially twisted, leading to varying, uncontrollable brake values which could, in the worst case scenario, cause the brake cables to break. The product does not comply with the Directive 89/686/EEC on the personal protective equipment.
