Letreen 2 pack safehammer glass breaker and seat belt cutter – black
Small, sturdy and purpose-built for when things go pear-shaped, the LETREEN Safehammer is a two-in-one emergency escape tool: a spring-loaded window breaker and a concealed seat belt cutter. It’s compact, simple to use and won’t faff about when every second counts.
Features you’ll notice
- The window breaker uses a high-pressure internal spring to deliver a powerful impact with a single press — the metal tip stays tucked inside the body until you press it against the glass.
- The seat belt cutter is a U-shaped stainless steel blade hidden in the housing, so it slices webbing cleanly without putting your fingers at risk while you handle it.
- Made from aluminium, the body is tough yet light; it measures 11.2 cm and weighs roughly 90 g, so it won’t get in the way.
- This is a twin pack — two identical Safehammers are included so you can keep one in your car and one with a partner or another vehicle for extra peace of mind.
- Clear labelling and straightforward operation: rotate and remove the protective covers on both sides before first use to access the cutter safely.
How to use – quick and simple
- To cut a trapped seat belt, align the notch with the strap and push forward — the hidden blade will slice the webbing in one go.
- To break a side window, aim for a corner or outer edge and press firmly — tempered side windows tend to shatter more readily at the edges than in the centre.
- Bear in mind laminated glass (such as front and rear windscreens, some modern side windows or sunroofs) is designed to stay intact and may not break with this tool; it’s intended for tempered side windows.
- After breaking the glass, clear a safe exit route and get out carefully — priorities first, then call for help once you’re safe.
Practical notes and typical questions
Worried the metal tip might spring out by accident? It won’t — the tip remains recessed until you deliberately press it to release, so it’s safe to carry in a glovebox or pouch without it popping out. Another common question is whether it works on every window: it’s best suited to tempered side windows; laminated windscreens and sunroofs are built to hold together, so don’t rely on this hammer for those.
It’s ideal for motorists, couples, families with young drivers, or anyone who spends a lot of time on the road and wants a straightforward emergency tool. Small enough to live in the glovebox, door pocket or on a dashboard mount, and because it comes as a 2-pack you’ve got a spare for a second car or to hand to a loved one. No faffing with complicated gadgets — just a solid escape tool when seconds matter.
