Safety standards in the automotive sector are rapidly and constantly evolving, driven by increasingly stringent European regulations. In this competitive landscape, Prima Industries confirms its position as a global partner, meeting new market demands with a completely refreshed range of emergency hammers. Featuring updated aesthetics, they are engineered to ensure maximum responsiveness and reliability when it matters most.
For glass thicknesses up to 4mm, our historic P86 model has undergone a major structural and functional redesign. To ease integration aboard modern vehicles, we introduced a new “slim bracket” specifically realized for installation on narrower pillars to optimize space. The design has been refined with a new see-through cover that allows for immediate visual inspection of the device’s status and is able to protect the hammer from misuse. Additionally, the reinforced structure is optimized for even safer and more effective steel cable management, providing enhanced protection against tampering or theft.
The “Large” version P165, ideal for public transport and sizable glass thickness, has also been improved with major updates. Key among these is the “Emergency” wording integrated directly onto the product body, a high visibility detail that expands an already extensive catalog of options and customizations. With these updates, Prima Industries renews its commitment to combining regulatory compliance, ergonomic effectiveness and industrial design excellence.
To achieve this high level of excellence, Prima’s team focused heavily on premium material durability, ensuring that every individual component can easily withstand the rigorous demands of daily public transit environments. The introduction of the new see-through cover not only effectively deters vandalism but also guarantees that the tool remains perfectly positioned, secure, and ready for instantaneous deployment by passengers or crew. By successfully addressing both strict space constraints with the slim bracket and immediate visibility requirements, the updated portfolio delivers an uncompromised, future-proof safety solution tailored perfectly for modern global transport infrastructure.
