ACME Tornado Slimline Whistle - Orange

Pealess Signal Whistle

The ACME Tornado Slimline is a compact orange safety whistle for attracting attention when your voice won't carry. It is rated at 117 dB and uses a pealess design, so there is no loose ball inside to stick, freeze or fill with grit. It suits a hiking pack, life jacket, plate carrier, boat kit or emergency bag, anywhere a signal device should be on hand.

Features

• 117 dB Rated Output — The packaging lists 117 decibels, loud enough to signal across distance and over wind or water noise.
• Pealess Design — Unlike a traditional referee whistle, it has no cork or plastic ball (the pea) inside, which leaves fewer parts to jam when wet, dirty or cold.
• Slimline Profile — The flat, narrow body sits closer to a strap or pocket than a round whistle and takes up little room in a kit.
• High-Visibility Orange — Bright orange plastic is easy to spot if you drop it on the ground or in the water.
• Split Ring Attachment — A steel split ring at the end lets you clip the whistle to a lanyard, zipper pull, shoulder strap or keyring.
• SOLAS Approval Mark — The card carries a Life Saving SOLAS approved badge, which refers to the international Safety of Life at Sea convention that covers marine lifesaving equipment.
• Mountain Rescue Approved — A Mountain Rescue approval badge on the packaging marks it for outdoor and backcountry signaling.
• Made In England — The whistle body is molded with ACME and England markings, and the card states made in the U.K.

Built In England

ACME whistles are made by J Hudson & Co, a specialist whistle maker in business since 1870. The Tornado is a one-piece molded plastic whistle with no moving parts, which makes it a good fit for wet and cold conditions. It arrives on its retail card with the split ring already fitted.
