Health Canada Issues Recall for Select Petzl Harnesses

Health Canada has announced a recall of several Petzl harnesses, including the Astro Bod Fast, Canyon Guide, Simba, Simba Park, Swan Easyfit Steel, and Swan Easyfit Stainless after the discovery, on one harness, of a missing rivet on a buckle. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled harnesses.

For the Astro Bod Fast and Canyon Guide harnesses, Health Canada said the issue is: “The pin securing the metal D-ring of the harnesses can release and allow the attachment point to open, posing a fall hazard that could result in serious injury or death.” For the other harnesses, Health Canada said the issue is: “A missing rivet in the Fast LT Pin-Lock buckle could cause the buckle to open, posing a fall hazard that could result in serious injury or death.”

More than 5,000 of the affected harnesses were sold from July 2021 to November 2025. While there have been no reports of injuries or incidents, Health Canada issued the recall out of precaution.
