The tool you hope never to use, within reach when you do.

Key points
  • Spring-loaded tungsten steel tip: a press on the corner of a side window is enough, with no swing.
  • Belt-cutter blade seated at the bottom of a U-shaped opening: it cuts the webbing without exposing your fingers.
  • 9.3 cm long, 3.2 cm wide at the base: it is held one-handed, seated and belted.
  • Two tools, two adhesive mounts and two test glass discs supplied.
  • ⚠️ Only works on tempered glass: neither the windscreen nor the laminated side windows of recent cars.
What to know before ordering
Fonctions
Spring-loaded window breaker and belt cutter, combined in one two-headed tool.
Pointe
Tungsten steel, spring-loaded. Fires with a simple press.
Lame
Stainless steel, recessed in a closed U-shaped opening.
Dimensions
9.3 cm long, 3.2 cm wide at the base. Roughly the size of a marker pen.
Contenu
2 tools, 2 adhesive mounts, 2 caps per tool, 2 test glass discs.
Attachment
Adhesive mount to stick onto a clean, smooth surface.
Not suitable for
Windscreen and any laminated glass. It is not a hammer: it breaks nothing by ordinary blows.
What is in the box
  • Two window-breaker and belt-cutter tools, caps in place.
  • Two adhesive mounts, one per tool.
  • Two test glass discs, to check the striker without breaking a window.
How to use it safely
  • Leave the caps on while the tool is not in use: the striker works just as well on a hand.
  • Keep it out of reach of children, and explain what it is for to those old enough to understand.
  • Check the striker when it arrives using the glass disc supplied, then forget about it: it is a tool that must be there, not an object you handle.
  • Shield your face before breaking a window, and push the glass outwards before climbing through.
Check before you buy
  • Read the marking on the edge of your side windows: tempered (it will shatter) or laminated (it will not give way).
  • Find a spot you can reach seated with your belt on — it is the only position that counts.
  • Have a clean, smooth surface ready for the mount: dusty plastic will not hold.

Description

The day the door will not open

A collision that jams the doors, leaving the road into a flooded ditch, a belt that will not unlatch: in those minutes, you have neither the time to search nor the room to take a swing. A window breaker may never be used — but if it is used one day, it has to be reachable while seated, with your belt on.

What it does, in practice

  • Shatters a tempered side window: the tungsten steel tip is spring-loaded, one press is enough to release the striker
  • Cuts through a jammed belt: the blade sits at the bottom of a U-shaped opening, your fingers never touch it
  • Handled one-handed, with no swing — 9.3 cm long, 3.2 cm at the base
  • Two of them: one in the front and one in the back, or one in each car

The gesture, in two steps

You pull off the cap, press the tip against a angle of the side window — the middle resists more — and the striker fires by itself. For the belt, you present the U-shaped opening against the webbing and push forward. A test glass disc is supplied with each tool: enough to check that the mechanism works without sacrificing a window.

Where to keep it

One adhesive mount is supplied for each tool. It is stuck where your hand will go for it without undoing your seat belt: door pillar, side of the centre console, bottom of the dashboard. In the glovebox it stays reachable; in the boot or a rear cubby, it is of no use at all.

What it does not do

It will not break a windscreen: that is laminated glass laminated, two layers bonded onto a film, made precisely so as not to shatter. On many recent cars, the front windows are laminated too — the marking laminated ou acoustique is often printed in small type on the edge of the window. A window breaker will make a hole in it, not an opening. Look at the edge of your windows before relying on one: that is the only check that really counts.

Worth knowing

  • It is a rescue tool, not a toy — the striker works just as well on a finger or a hand. Caps in place, out of reach of children.
  • Free shipping within mainland France, with no minimum order.
  • Order processed within 24 h, delivered within 7 working days.
  • 14 days to change your mind, returns accepted with no reason required.

When it earns its place

The door that will not open

After a collision, a deformed door can stay jammed while everything else is fine. The side window then becomes the fastest way out — provided you have something to break it with, without leaving your seat.

The belt that will not unlatch

A retractor that jams, a distorted buckle, pressure on the mechanism: the belt that was protecting you becomes what holds you. The U-shaped blade cuts the webbing in one forward movement.

The car in the water

A submerged car equalises its pressure before a door can be opened. A spring-loaded striker works underwater, where an elbow has no effect.

Coming to someone else's aid

More often than not, the tool is not for you. Two of them means keeping one in each car in the household, or handing one to a young driver.

Questions we are asked about this product

Will it break a windscreen?

No, and no window breaker does. A windscreen is laminated glass: two layers bonded onto a plastic film, designed to crack without falling apart. A car's emergency exit is the side windows.

How do I know whether my side windows can be broken?

Look at the small print on the edge of the window: "tempered" indicates glass that shatters, "laminated" or "acoustic" glass that will not give way. More and more recent cars have laminated front windows; the rear windows are often still tempered.

Does it take any force?

No, and that is the whole point of the spring-loaded striker: the tip concentrates the force on a single point and fires by itself when you press. A child could do it — all the more reason to leave the caps on.

Where should you strike the window?

On a corner, or a few centimetres from the edge. The middle of a window is the part that resists best.

What are the glass discs supplied for?

To check that the striker works, without breaking a window on the car. You hold them flat on a hard surface, fire the tool onto them, and you know.

Where to fit it in the car?

Where your hand reaches it without undoing your belt: door pillar, side of the centre console, bottom of the dashboard. One adhesive mount is supplied per tool. The boot and the rear cubbies do not count.

How long will it take to arrive?

The order is processed within 24 hours and delivery follows within 7 working days, with a tracking number as soon as it ships.
