Over-100 dB floating whistle for signalling help

A bright orange polypropylene safety whistle with a neck lanyard, rated at over 100 dB. It is non-corrosive, floats in seawater and is approved for flotation devices (SOLAS and EN 394 / ISO 12402-8 per listing).

A whistle carries further than a voice and does not tire. Keep one on every coat, grab bag and child's bag, and teach the three-blast signal.

  • Bright orange

  • Neck lanyard
  • 10 g

How to use it

You hang the whistle round your neck and blow it, with three sharp blasts, to attract help if you are lost or in trouble.

  1. Put the lanyard over your head so the whistle sits on your chest.
  2. Check that it is clear of dirt and that the pea, if any, moves freely.
  3. If you need help, take a deep breath and blow hard.
  4. Give three loud blasts, then pause for about a minute.
  5. Repeat the sequence and listen for a reply.
  6. Keep blowing in sets, and stay where you are if help is coming.
Tips
  • A whistle carries further than a voice and does not tire you.
  • Keep one on every coat, grab bag and child's bag.
  • Teach children the three-blast signal and tell them to use it only in an emergency.
Safety and limits
  • Loud blasts can hurt hearing at close range. Do not blow it near anyone's ears.
  • Use a loose breakaway-style neck fit for children, because a lanyard can snag, and supervise young children.
Please note
  • A very loud whistle can damage hearing close to the ear
  • Keep out of reach of small children
