Stanley Black & Decker, one of the world’s largest tool manufacturers, recently issued a recall of over two million sledgehammers due to a potential safety hazard. The recall was issued after the company received reports of the hammer head becoming detached from the handle, which can result in serious injuries.

The affected products were sold under the Stanley brand name and were manufactured in China between 2009 and 2012. The sledgehammers were sold at major home improvement and hardware stores across the United States, including Home Depot, Lowe’s, and Amazon.

Consumers who purchased the recalled sledgehammers are urged to immediately stop using them and contact Stanley Black & Decker for a free replacement. The company has set up a toll-free hotline at 866-215-1132 for customers to call for more information.

This recall is a reminder of the importance of product safety and the responsibility that manufacturers have to ensure that their products are safe for consumers to use. Stanley Black & Decker has taken swift action to address the potential safety hazard and to protect its customers.

In addition to the recall, Stanley Black & Decker is also conducting a comprehensive review of its manufacturing processes to ensure that such incidents do not occur in the future. The company is committed to providing its customers with high-quality products that are safe and reliable.

If you own a Stanley sledgehammer, we urge you to check the product label for the model number and date code to see if it is affected by the recall. It is essential to act quickly to prevent any potential injuries from occurring.

In conclusion, product safety is of utmost importance, and manufacturers must take every precaution to ensure that their products are safe for consumers to use. Stanley Black & Decker’s recall of two million sledgehammers is a testament to their commitment to the safety of their customers, and we applaud their swift action in addressing this issue. We urge all consumers to stay informed about product recalls and to take the necessary steps to protect themselves and their families.
