<h3>About Orion Safety Products</h3><p><strong>Orion Safety Products</strong> is the world's leading manufacturer of emergency flares and signaling devices, with a legacy of nearly a century spent keeping drivers, boaters, and outdoor enthusiasts safe. Headquartered in Easton, Maryland, and operating manufacturing facilities in Peru, Indiana and Bristol, Pennsylvania, Orion builds its products with an unwavering commitment to quality — because in an emergency, there is no margin for error.</p><p>Orion's roots trace back to making automotive and railway flares under historic brand names such as Bristol Flare, Lakeside Fusee, and Standard Fusee. In 1997 the company unified all of its safety and signaling products under the Orion name, and today that name is synonymous with dependable emergency signaling across highway, marine, wildfire, forestry, and outdoor markets. When you reach for a flare on the side of a dark, rain-soaked highway, chances are you are holding an Orion product.</p><h3>Highway Safety &amp; Signaling</h3><p>Orion's <a href="/2245-orion-handheld-signal-products-200509">Handheld Signal Products</a> are the gold standard for roadside emergencies. Unlike battery-operated or reflective alternatives, Orion's pyrotechnic flares are entirely self-contained — no batteries, no lighter, no external light source needed. They ignite reliably and burn brilliantly day or night, in rain, snow, and fog — precisely the conditions under which roadside emergencies are most likely to occur. Law enforcement agencies, fire crews, and emergency responders across the country continue to specify Orion flares because of their unmatched brightness and proven real-world performance.</p><p>Orion also manufactures a comprehensive line of marine <a href="/2245-orion-handheld-signal-products-202070">Handheld Signal Products</a>, offering USCG-approved and SOLAS-compliant aerial and handheld flares engineered to exceed Coast Guard minimum requirements for both day and nighttime distress signaling. Whether you are a weekend boater or a commercial mariner, Orion's marine signals deliver the visibility and reliability that life-at-sea demands.</p><h3>High-Visibility Safety Gear</h3><p>Recognizing that roadside safety doesn't end with a flare, Orion pairs many of its emergency kits with a bright orange <a href="/2245-orion-highway-safety-vest-50371">Highway Safety Vest</a>. This approach ensures that drivers dealing with a breakdown or accident scene are visible to oncoming traffic, complementing the warning provided by deployed flares and creating a comprehensive personal safety solution in a single, easy-to-store kit.</p><h3>Why Choose Orion?</h3><ul><li>Nearly 100 years of emergency signaling expertise and engineering innovation</li><li>All highway flare products manufactured in the U.S.A. to strict DOT quality guidelines</li><li>USCG-approved and SOLAS-compliant marine signal products</li><li>Trusted by law enforcement, fire departments, first responders, and everyday drivers</li><li>Broad product range covering highway, marine, railway, home, and wilderness safety needs</li></ul><p>From the moment a tire blows on a busy interstate to a distress situation miles offshore, Orion Safety Products delivers the signaling tools that professionals and consumers trust when lives are on the line.</p>

Product Details

The Orion 509 Safety Air Horn is a powerful, single-tone audible signaling device delivering a 120-decibel blast at 10 feet — loud enough to be heard across open water or large outdoor areas. Designed for marine, boating, and outdoor safety applications, it meets U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) requirements for vessels up to 65 feet in length.

Powered by an environmentally responsible HFC152a propellant, the Orion 509 delivers up to 106 blasts per 8-ounce canister. The HFC152a formula has a Global Warming Potential (GWP) that is 90% lower than HFC134a, making it a more eco-conscious choice without sacrificing performance.

Key Features:

  • Single-tone, round horn design in red
  • 120dB blast at 10 feet for maximum audibility
  • Up to 106 blasts per 8 oz canister
  • HFC152a propellant — environmentally safe, low GWP
  • Meets USCG requirements for boats up to 65 feet
  • Simple push-button operation for immediate use
  • Made in the USA
  • Includes 4-color card; packaged in blister pack

The compact 8-ounce canister stores easily in a life jacket pocket, emergency kit, or vessel compartment. Whether you're out on the water or need a reliable emergency signal for outdoor activities, the Orion 509 is a trusted, coast guard-compliant choice.
