CB6ks Split Ring

I split my ring this morning:cry: My kh was out, and I went to site down as normal, felt a ‘crunch’ type sound. Investigated, and the main ring had split at the hoop section that holds the pins. As a new chaste guy, with a new KH, I panicked. I really panicked.:o Fortunately, she was back 20 minutes later and I had got the spare ring from my old cheap 6ks copy. Wrapped it in PVC tape and I’m locked back in.:D As I’d worn the other ring for less than 3 days, I’ve arranged to return it to the shop and see if I get a refund/replacement - they are supposed to be excellent on that and I’ve spent enough with them:) My concern now is that I need to replace this current ring. It’s the largest 50mm. I am concerned that plastic/polycarbonate won’t be strong enough and I’ll end up doing this again. Do I change for a stainless version of the CB6ks or is this kind of break a fluke? I’d like some thoughts on it. I use the smallest spacer and largest ring at the moment, and it’s been super comfortable. I just don’t like the thought of it snapping and leaving me vulnerable.
