Consumer Product Recall: Magnetic Stones Toy Creativity Development DIY Magnetic Beads, 5mm (.2 inch)

Shanghai Beiyong Trading Co., of China, through JD-E Commerce America Limited (dba Joybuy Marketplace Express), of Irvine, California · March 7, 2024

Reason for Recall

The recalled 5mm magnetic ball sets violate the mandatory federal toy magnet regulation because they contain one or more magnets that fit within CPSC's small parts cylinder, and the magnets are stronger than permitted. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract each other, or another metal object, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting and/or blockage of the intestines, infection, blood poisoning and death.

Product Description

This recall involves 5mm (.2 inch) magnetic balls which are small, spherical, loose and separable neodymium rare-earth magnets with a strong magnetic flux. The 5mm-diameter magnets are sold in a set of 226 multi-colored magnetic balls encased in a clear, plastic case and a portable, tin storage box. The set includes a black storage bag.
