Lifesmoke MK8 Orange Smoke SOLAS Signal

Alert others to your location with the USCG-approved and SOLAS-compliant Lifesmoke MK8 from Pains-Wessex.

Designed for day distress signal situations by providing effective position marking and to indicate wind direction during rescue operations, this SOLAS smoke signal makes three minutes of dense, clearly visible, orange smoke. Safe to handle and safe for use on oil or gas covered water; it is easy to ignite with a top pull-wire igniter with a two-second delay allowing you time to throw the canister into the water. With a flat top and compact design, Lifesmoke MK8 can be conveniently stowed in life rafts or on your boat. Ideally, flares should be stored in a dry, easily accessible location at an ambient temperature or in a robust, specially designed polybottle.
