The recall comes after one example broke after being weakened by manual tightening during servicing that exceeded the recommended torque load.
Owners of units on which serial numbers are lower than 6062501 and/or are marked '300 BAR MAX' (as opposed to '300 BAR MAXI') should return the fitting to the Aqua Lung retailer from which they bought it. It will be replaced by a new unit with a DIN screw made from stainless steel.
