Subject: Seam Clamp Pin Retainer

Recommendations: 

The current seam clamp pivot pin retaining ring must be replaced.

PMC part #HW-10970 (MFG #5100-37 Truarc) must be replaced using PMC part #HW-10944 (MGF #WSM-37, manufactured by Smalley, www.smalley.com).

PMC has had several reports of failures of current retaining ring. This is attributed to fatigue, overextension, and/or re-use.

All snap rings are designed for one-time use.

PMC is currently evaluating the design on the 1002 models. We ask you to replace the current item immediately to avoid any future component damage.

If replacement item is unavailable locally, please contact PMC thru our Parts Service.
