Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The reported event could be confirmed, since the returned drill bit is out of specification.The device inspection revealed the following: two drill bits, laser marked with catalog number 703690, were returned for evaluation.The visual inspection does confirm a difference in the dimensions, the drill bit with the lot am10/bb is thicker and longer that the drill bit with lot am11/bb.The dimensional inspection with a caliper has shown the drill bit with lot am10/bb has a diameter of 2.59mm, while the specification requires a diameter of 2.00mm 0/-0.02.Based on that it can be concluded that this drill bit is out of specification as complained.Based on investigation, the root cause was attributed to a manufacturing related issue.One step during the manufacturing process was not carried out properly and that the returned 2.6mm drill bit was marked with a incorrect catalog number.An non-conformity report was opened at the manufacturing site to address this event.
