Why the product was recalled

Certain Pinnacle Cup devices may potentially exhibit an oversized "minor diameter", which could lead the Apex HE to thread through the shell of the cup without stopping or to protrude internally as a result of "cross-threading". If cross-threading occurs, physicians will not feel the positive stop of the Apex HE against the cup.
