Recall Details

Company:
Zimmer, Inc.
Reason for Recall:
Potential for uncured adhesive between the metal threaded insert and the impactor block to leak out of the assembled part following the autoclave sterilization process. The Master Bond epoxy serves as a secondary locking mechanism to fix the metal insert to the impactor head. Foreign material has been observed on the impactor block. This has the potential for a biological response.
Classification:
Class I - Dangerous

Dangerous or defective products that predictably could cause serious health problems or death.
