Additional information: d9, g3, h3, h6.The reported event was confirmed as one unpackaged ar-13999mff, fastpass scorpion sl-mf with flushport, batch number 15363515, was received for investigation and upon functional inspection, it was observed that the jaw does not close completely as expected due to a loose shaft (see evaluation pictures 3 + 4).No fragments were returned for evaluation.The most likely cause for the reported failure can be attributed to an internal manufacturing issue.Further the device shows signs of metal surface oxidation at the distal end (see evaluation pictures 5 + 6).
