Duke Direct Stream Pepper Spray with UV Dye

The Duke Direct Stream Pepper Spray is a compact 60ml personal safety spray.

It uses a direct stream to help place the spray where it is needed.

The formula contains Oleoresin Capsicum and also includes 2% UV dye.

The UV marker is normally hard to see in daylight. It can become visible under a suitable UV or black light.

This can help with later identification.

Direct Stream Spray Pattern

This Duke spray uses a direct stream.

A stream pattern is more focused than a broad fog-style spray.

This helps reduce unnecessary spread around the user.

It can also make the spray easier to direct in open areas.

Always use the product responsibly and follow the maker’s instructions.

2% UV Dye

The formula includes 2% UV dye.

The marking is not designed to be clearly visible under normal daylight.

Instead, the dye can fluoresce under a suitable UVA or black light.

This can help show that a person or surface has been exposed to the spray.

The UV dye is an added identification feature. It does not replace normal police or security procedures.

Oleoresin Capsicum Formula

The spray uses Oleoresin Capsicum, also known as OC.

OC is the irritant ingredient used in many pepper sprays.

The Duke Safety Data Sheet identifies Oleoresin Capsicum as the main hazard-related ingredient.

The product should be handled with care because it can irritate:

• Eyes
• Skin
• Nose
• Throat
• Respiratory system

60ml Size

The can contains 60ml of product.

This makes it compact enough for everyday storage while still offering more capacity than very small keyring-style sprays.

Non-Flammable

The current Duke product information lists the formula as non-flammable.

The Safety Data Sheet also classifies it as a non-flammable aerosol.

Even so, the can is pressurised.

Do not expose it to high heat, flames or direct heat sources.

Five-Year Shelf Life

The current product information lists a five-year shelf life.

Always check the expiry date printed on the can.

Replace the spray if it has expired, leaked or been damaged.
