Is the safety hammer unreliable? Selling online but lacking national standards

7.21. In the heavy rain in Beijing, one car owner was trapped in the car. The news of the death of drowning eventually caused people to discuss the trapped escape. The most mentioned tool for escape-breaking is the safety hammer, so the sales of safety hammers on shopping websites have increased significantly. However, the reporter found that the price of the hammer varies from a few yuan to a hundred dollars, and its quality is also mixed.

Recently, some netizens on Weibo said that they had bought a safety hammer worth tens of yuan, and had done a "window-window" experiment. As a result, the glass was not broken and the safety hammer was broken. There are netizens who said that they bought a mini-safety hammer and they are very unreliable, arguing that “the glass bottle is not smashed in any way, and you don’t know whether the windows can be crushed”. Some netizens said that they bought a multi-functional "safety hammer" with lighting and a small knife, but they are not practical and are not practical at all. For this reason, many netizens and citizens have expressed their concern. “The safety hammer is bought for help, but if it does not work in times of crisis, then isn't it harmful?”

The reporter searched on major shopping websites and found that the lowest price for a hammer was only around five yuan, and the highest one was a few hundred yuan. In addition, the hammers are available in a variety of forms. They are made of plastic, made of steel, and are available in mini versions. Some models even include a number of functions. For example, a knife that cuts a seat belt, a flashlight, an LED lamp, and a magnetic pickup. Rods, tire pressure gauges, alarms, screwdrivers, etc.

This reporter carefully read all the contents of the store and found that for the introduction of such products, many sellers are limited to functions, materials, colors, etc., and there are no detailed parameters in terms of performance, such as hammer tip, which types can be broken, how many The thickness of the glass and other issues. Even some sellers have no explanation. But at the same time, the reporter also found that for some well-known foreign hammer brands, the introduction was relatively more detailed.

No test report, no national standard reporter randomly found a seller selling hammer, asked him if he can guarantee to break the glass, he said "this is no problem, you can rest assured." When the reporter asked whether there was a safety monitoring certification or a related performance test report, the seller stated that it had not done a test. Also unable to issue relevant proofs.

So whether the small lifesaving safety hammer has national standards? The reporter did not find the relevant national standards for safety hammers on the China National Standards Network. The safety hammer equipped on the bus is standard for automobile manufacturers. In the absence of the national standard, they also purchase and configure according to the standards provided by the manufacturer. Although China does not have a uniform standard for safety hammers, the industry or the enterprise will set its own production standards.
