Why these products were recalled

Mix up between specified lots of 2.5mm and 2.8mm outer diameter screws.

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.
