Hazard
The product presents a risk of choking as the magnetic spheres fit entirely within the small parts cylinder. The product also presents a risk of injuries as the magnetic spheres were tested and found to have a magnetic flux index of 222 kG2mm², greater than the limit of 50 kG2mm². If two or more magnets were swallowed, there is a risk that the magnets become drawn to each other in the digestive system, which could cause serious injury or death if medical attention is not sought immediately.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.
