[Emergency escape tool] Breaks even shatterproof glass! Can send SOS and cut seatbelts too

As flooding incidents increase, the focus on emergency escape tools is rising. "SAFE T SYL FLEX" is designed to deal with laminated glass that conventional escape hammers cannot break.

Did you know there is glass that won't break even with an escape hammer?

The escape hammer is what comes to mind as an emergency escape tool for cars. However, not all window glass breaks the same way. While tempered glass can be shattered with a typical emergency escape hammer, laminated glass, like that used in windshields, is difficult to break with conventional hammers due to the intermediate layer that remains.

One tool that can handle such laminated glass is the vehicle emergency escape tool "SAFE T SYL FLEX." Its structure concentrates force at the tip, reportedly increasing energy efficiency by over 340% compared to traditional escape hammers. It is primarily intended for use on side windows, and since the glass structure varies by vehicle model, be sure to check beforehand.

Shatter the glass in 3 steps!

To use it, remove the hammer from the cover, peel off the sticker on the back side of the main body and affix it to the corner of the window glass, then strike the hammer part with your fist in three steps. If it doesn't break on the first try, keep hitting it repeatedly. It works by fixing the hammer to the glass and transmitting force, rather than swinging it like a regular hammer.

The main body size is 70mm in diameter and 18mm in thickness, and it weighs about 27g. Due to its compact size, you can keep it in a place that is easily reachable from the driver's seat rather than stowing it away deep in the trunk. It is the perfect size to be installed on the sun visor right in front of you, making it readily accessible in an emergency.

If the seatbelt doesn't come off, you can cut it and escape.

Another feature is the seatbelt cutter. It can be removed from the main body and used to cut the seatbelt by threading it through the groove and pulling down. The blade is made of high-carbon steel, and the size of the opening has been designed to minimize the chance of fingers getting inside. It can be quite convenient to have both the emergency escape hammer and the seatbelt cutter combined into one unit instead of requiring them separately.

Additionally, it has a built-in NFC tag. When scanned with a smartphone that has the dedicated app installed, you can select the type of accident and call 119, or send an SMS with the type of accident, latitude and longitude, and address to pre-registered family or friends.

Disaster prevention supplies should be installed in visible locations.

Emergency escape hammer, seatbelt cutter, SOS app. Even if you don't use them regularly, it’s meaningless if you can't take them out immediately when needed. With the "SAFE T SYL FLEX," you can attach the compact body in an easily noticeable orange color to your sun visor. It can also be installed in each seat.

When it comes to car disaster prevention supplies, it's easy to just gather them in the trunk. However, you want to equip the escape tools where you can reach them while sitting. The author, who does not have disaster prevention supplies stocked, is thinking of installing this right away.
