Diving Unlimited recalls weight systems Classic and II due to manufacturing defects preventing weight pockets from detaching during use, risking drowning. Consumers must stop using immediately and contact for free repair.
Manufacturing defects in the lanyard connecting the handle to the pocket or the cable securing the pocket to the harness can prevent the weight pockets from easily detaching from the harness and releasing the weights when the handle is pulled. This poses a drowning hazard to consumers.
Diving Unlimited is recalling two weight systems (Classic and II) because defects can prevent weights from detaching when pulled, causing drowning. This is serious and requires immediate action to avoid drowning risks.
The lanyard connecting the handle to the pocket or cable securing the pocket to the harness can have manufacturing defects. This prevents weights from detaching when the handle is pulled during use, which can lead to drowning if the diver cannot release the weights.
Divers using the DUI Weight & Trim System Classic or II are affected. Those who dive with these systems are at highest risk due to the drowning hazard.
Look for black weight harnesses with gray handles and the DUI logo on pockets. The Classic has two small weight pockets per side, while the II has one large pocket per side. Systems with large silver stripes have been repaired and are not affected.
Immediately stop using the weight systems as they pose a drowning hazard.
