Product Information
Full details

Its key benefit is the magnetic detachment system, allowing for optimal range of motion without compromising on the traditional fingergrip feel. A potential caveat is the learning curve associated with detaching and reattaching the whistle during intense game moments.

FAQs
How strong is the magnetic connection?
The magnetic connection is designed to be secure for typical game use while allowing for controlled detachment and reattachment. It's strong enough to stay attached during vigorous activity but can be intentionally separated.
Can I use this whistle with a standard Fox 40 fingergrip?
No, the Magnetic Fingergrip Technology is integrated into this specific model and is not compatible with standard, non-magnetic fingergrips.
How do I clean the magnetic parts?
Wipe the magnetic surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Ensure they are completely dry before reattaching the whistle to prevent any interference with the magnetic pull.
Is the whistle loud enough for large stadiums?
The Fox 40 Classic whistle is known for its loud, clear sound, suitable for most sporting events. The fingergrip design does not impede the sound output.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Please refer to the product packaging or the retailer's information for specific warranty details, as warranty periods can vary.
Can the whistle be used without the fingergrip?
While the whistle itself can be blown without the fingergrip, the Magnetic Fingergrip Technology is designed to integrate the two for optimal performance and versatility during officiating.
Troubleshooting
Whistle does not detach easily.
Ensure both the whistle and fingergrip magnetic surfaces are clean and free of debris. Dry them thoroughly before attempting to detach.
Whistle does not reattach securely.
Check for any obstructions on the magnetic surfaces. Ensure the whistle is aligned correctly with the fingergrip base before allowing the magnets to connect.
Accidental detachment during active play.
Practice the detachment and reattachment motion. Ensure the whistle is correctly seated on the magnetic base; slight pressure should confirm a secure connection.
