Overview
|
Model RT A400 - Halon 1211-1301 Blend Typical use: Cockpit/Cabin. The gaugeless RT A400 is the smallest Halon fire extinguisher available anywhere. It's a great flight bag accessory. These extinguishers contain a unique blend of liquefied gas 1211/1301, two highly effective fire fighting agents. These units are self expelling which means that the pressure remains constant even when the extinguishers are almost empty. |

Halon Fire Extinguisher 14Oz + With Mounting Bracket
Very handy to have it. Light and small enough to fit in cabin. Most importantly, it will not destroy your hoses or engine as normal extinguishers type A, B or C do.
