CPSC Warns Consumers to Immediately Stop Using C*** Hardware Plastic Tip Restraint Kits Due to Tip-Over Hazard
Image is quoted from CPSC’s materials published
CPSC's “Anchor It!” is a national public education campaign to prevent furniture and TV tip-overs from killing and seriously injuring children. The preventative method is simple: by using hardware to secure furniture or televisions to the wall, the risk of accidental injuries caused by young children climbing on furniture and televisions tipping over can be significantly reduced or even eliminated. Therefore, qualified anti-tip devices/hardware are particularly important.
On September 11, 2025, CPSC issued a product safety warning regarding the plastic tip restraint kit manufactured in China, citing that the plastic components of the kit may age or even break, failing to meet the industry standards ASTM F3096-23.
ASTM F3096-23 is the industry standard requirement for tip restraint kit, and it is also a mandatory requirement for CSU (Clothing Storage Unit) exported to the United States to include anti-tipping devices. Intertek can provide professional testing services for suppliers.
