The customer's report that the pca tubing was cracked at the hub and leaking was confirmed.Inspection of the as-received samples observed a crack along the side of the set's female luer lock component.No tool markings were observed around the observed damaged area.No other damages or any issues were observed.The crack was observed to be approximately opposite the injection gate on the luer component.Fluid from the attached syringe was pushed through and it was observed that the fluid streamed out from the noted damage.The root cause of the crack was identified to be a result of internal stresses created during the manufacturing process.
