| Issue: | This issue was identified internally during production. Following issue detection, product samples underwent tensile testing, where one sample cracked while being manipulated to load into the test fixture. While there is a quality control check in place to detect this failure mode prior to product release, all tested samples underwent this quality control check prior to being tested. This is indicative that the subject marker bands may fail at a point past the quality control check. |
