Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Easton Technical Products is recalling approximately 20,700 Axis carbon composite arrows because they can break when fired. This defect can cause the arrow to hit unintended targets, including the archer or bystanders. These black arrows feature green and gray graphics and were sold at archery specialty stores and major retailers like Bass Pro and Cabela's between February and May 2013. Consumers should immediately stop using these arrows and contact Easton for a free replacement.

Risk

The arrows can fracture upon release from the bow, causing sharp pieces to fly in unintended directions or strike the user's hand or arm. While no injuries have been reported yet, the structural failure of the arrow poses a significant risk of puncture or laceration wounds.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using all Easton Axis arrows and check the printed labels on the shafts for specific size and batch number combinations.
  2. Identify your arrows by looking for 'Axis', 'Focused Energy', and 'Easton' printed on the shaft. Check if your arrow matches one of these four specific identifiers: Size 300 (Batch 13169686), Size 340 (Batch 13170143), Size 400 (Batch 13170142), or Size 500 (Batch 13169487).
  3. If your arrows match any of the recalled batch numbers, contact Easton Technical Products toll-free at 888-380-6234 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET Monday through Friday to receive free replacement arrows.
  4. Visit www.eastonarchery.com and click on 'Axis Recall' or go directly to www.axisrecall.com for more information and to process your replacement.
  5. Contact the CPSC Hotline at 800-638-2772 if you have additional questions regarding this safety recall.
