A.S.A. Emergency Canopy Escape & Gas Cap Tool

This is one of our newest specialty tools, developed specifically for RV aircraft at the suggestion of forum members with first-hand experience. Through extensive research, we identified a critical need for this tool—and its potential to save lives in an emergency.

Why You Need This Tool:

In the unfortunate event of a flip-over, almost all incidents result in the canopy breaking or cracking. At first, this might seem beneficial for a quick exit, but in reality, sharp Plexiglas shards make it nearly impossible to escape without serious injury.

Many pilots who have experienced this situation firsthand told us that breaking off the jagged pieces by hand is nearly impossible. This lightweight escape tool solves that problem, allowing you to clear a safe exit from the cockpit quickly and efficiently.

Key Features:

✔ Breaks Away Sharp Plexiglas Shards – Designed to remove fractured canopy pieces up to ¼” thick.
✔ Ultra-Lightweight & Compact – Weighs less than 1 oz., making it easy to store in your aircraft.
✔ Aircraft-Grade Aluminum – Laser-cut from .125” heat-treated aluminum, then deburred and tumbled to remove sharp edges.
✔ Easy Access Storage – Thin enough to mount with Velcro for quick retrieval in an emergency.
✔ Built-in Gas Cap Removal Feature – A smart addition! Since pilots handle their gas cap regularly, this design makes the escape tool a familiar, natural movement to grab when needed.

This small but potentially life-saving tool is a must-have for every RV pilot. Don’t wait until you need it—be prepared!
