Is my product affected?

Climbing Sticks

  • Brand Innopower, Inc. (owner of the Hawk brand), of Frankenmuth, Mich.

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Innopower is recalling certain Hawk climbing sticks sold in 2014 and 2015 because the folding steps can bend or break during use, creating a fall hazard. The recall affects the 2085 and 2085-1 RAZOR models (32 inches long) and the 2084 and 2084-1 RAZOR SHORTMAX models (20 inches long). These aluminum sticks with a gray finish tie to tree trunks with nylon straps and have either two 32-inch or two 20-inch metal poles with steps and a tree V-bracket. Recalled steps can be identified by three rectangular holes cut in the bottom, unlike non-recalled steps which have circular holes.

According to the record, consumers who own affected climbing sticks should immediately stop using them and contact Innopower for information on returning the folding steps for a free replacement.
