Re: Masterlinks
We herewith confirm that:
The Master link assemblies are tested and do comply with the standard EN 1677-4.
Further in our opinion:
1. Grinding marks are permitted as performed within reasonable workmanship.
2. The tolerance on the diameter is ± 5%.
3. Pitting spots with no sharp characters do not lead to a rejection.
4. Twisted cannot be judged on the received report with pictures.
5. Bubbles in the weld cannot be judged on received report with pictures. Small bubbles in the welding area do not have to result in a product which does not comply with the safety requirements.
Based on the information received we see no reason for a rejection.
In our opinion the products are safe to use.
With kind regards,
