Evaluation summary: a review of the dhr revealed no discrepancies in material or manufacturing.The jaws have been used frequently until damage during the past 7 years.The failure mode could be assumed in a wrongly assembled staple (in between the jaws behind the intended reception).Tightening then will cause non intended bending forces to the jaws.We regard to the event as user related.
