LIGHT BUCKLES
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
The CRUX features aluminum plate buckles. Be sure to assemble them correctly, and inspect them before every
jump. Webbing must pass around the middle bar of the small buckle. The entire small buckle then passes
through the hole in the larger buckle. Confirm that the webbing fold back end is under (below) the large
buckle’s outside edge. See photos for GOOD and BAD routing.
The critical junctions of the CRUX are easy to inspect. All major bartacks are made with contrasting
color thread and are easily accessible. Always inspect your CRUX before each use and discontinue
use immediately if you see any evidence of wear or damage. Always check your entire container
system, and all equipment, for signs of wear or degradation before every use. NEVER ASSUME
that your equipment is in perfect working condition and always use extreme caution when trusting
any single component of your equipment with your life.
