Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
Four unused devices were returned for investigation.Two devices measured 53 mm and two devices measured 54 mm.All four devices met the +/- 1 mm tolerance for custom devices.The manufacturing facility has attempted to meet the complainant's specifications by building a specific fixture for the end user.All four devices were placed on the fixture and were deemed to pass the angle requirement.The reported complaint is not confirmed.No corrective actions are planned at this time.A review of the device history records shows there were no observations recorded during manufacture to suggest an issue of this nature would occur with this lot of products.
