A long‑range distress signal for day or night use
The Pains Wessex Para Red Rocket Flare Mk8A is a SOLAS 74/88‑approved distress rocket designed for dependable performance in harsh marine environments. Built to tolerate extreme weather and remain operational even after full water immersion, it features a pull‑wire ignition system and an enhanced grip for safer, more controlled handling. When activated, it launches a red parachute flare to an altitude of 300m (1000ft), producing a 40‑second burn at 30,000 candela.
Remove the red end cap, hold the flare upright above your head with a firm grip, turn your face away, and pull the toggle. The rocket discharges instantly with a sharp report and a small recoil. Ensure the device is never pointed toward people, vessels, or structures.
This flare is classified as Dangerous Goods, requiring handling by a specialised courier. Please allow an additional 1–7 days beyond standard delivery times.
Delivery may not be available to locations serviced only by alternative transport (e.g., ferry or air‑only routes). Customers should confirm with their local courier whether Dangerous Goods can be delivered to their address.
