The actual sample was discarded, however, the customer returned one new unused lifeshield microbore extension from the same lot.The set was tested per product specification and no leakages were observed.The reported complaint of leakage was unable to be replicated or confirmed.Without the return of the used sample, a comprehensive failure investigation cannot be performed and a cause cannot be determined.The lot history was reviewed and no nonconformities were identified that may have contributed to the reported complaint.
