CPSC, Kidde Announce Recall of Industrial Fire Extinguishers
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
The nylon valves on these extinguishers can separate from the steel cylinder during the 6-year recharge service or shortly afterwards, creating a safety hazard to fire extinguisher service personnel and consumers.
