Why these products were recalled

Spin Down RapidFlap nut that interfaces with the outer plate was assembled incorrectly.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
