Plain-English summary

Reebok-CCM Hockey Inc. is recalling approximately 2,100 EP20K Senior (SR) Hockey Elbow Pads sold in the United States and 1,600 in Canada. The recall involves pads with all-foam elbow caps that are white with grey and black fabric, featuring the Reebok logo and "20K PRO" text. The product code K101SR EP20K is located on the inside label and on the outside of the polybag for some units.

The molded foam padding inside the elbow pads can become cracked, fractured, or split, which poses a risk of injury to the elbow. The company reports one incident in Canada that resulted in a broken elbow.

These pads were sold at retail hockey stores nationwide and directly from Reebok-CCM Hockey, Inc.'s business-to-employee website from April 2013 through November 2013 for about $110. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled elbow pads and return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund or replacement, or return the product directly to Reebok-CCM Hockey Inc. for a replacement.
