US Military Surplus Unused SEA DYE MARKER Rescue Rare Item ⑥

Product Description

Manufactured by Presto Dyechem, compliant with MIL-S-17980D.
This dye marker is included in lifeboats and pilot survival kits. Its purpose is to dye the sea surface a fluorescent color in emergencies, signaling your location to rescue teams.

- Operating Temperature Range: -30°C to +60°C
- Visibility Duration: Approximately 30-40 minutes
(Up to 1 hour on calm seas)
- Shelf Life: Typically 5 to 10 years (when unopened)

- This pack is designed to make you more visible when you are in a situation requiring third-party rescue, such as being stranded at sea or in the snow. It disperses a brightly colored powder onto the sea surface or snow to aid in your discovery.

To use, pull the tabs on both sides firmly to open.
The bag opening is sealed, so it cannot be resealed once opened.
Inside, you will find a cloth bag containing the dye.

Dissolve this in seawater or scatter it on snow for use.

[Stranded at Sea]
Remove the inner cloth bag. Do not tear the bag; instead, gently agitate it in the water to allow the dye to dissolve from the fabric fibers.
*If you open the cloth bag, the dye will be released all at once, shortening its effective duration.

[Stranded in Snow]
Remove the inner cloth bag. Cut the edge of the bag with a knife or similar tool, and scatter the dye powder onto the snow. You can draw letters or symbols to direct rescuers.
