Additional information: d9, g3, h3, h6.The complaint allegation is confirmed.One unpackaged ar-9597-10 batch 3762227 was received for investigation.The reamer ar-9676 was received separately.Visual evaluation found multiple scratches around the inside diameter and in the collar sleeve.The knurl also had numerous dents and burns.Functional testing was not performed as the devices inside diameter was damaged.The reported condition is most likely the result of overheating during use caused by overstressing a device that is damaged naturally and inevitably as a result of normal wear or aging.
