An airbag inflator ( 1 ) for motor vehicles, more specifically an airbag inflator which is adapted to reduce high sound levels generated by the streaming of a gas flow out of the outlet into ambient air, which airbag inflator comprises at least one gas outlet ( 9 ) which is adapted to reduce high sound level generated by the streaming of a gas flow out of the outlet into ambient air. The gas outlet ( 9 ) of the airbag inflator ( 1 ) has an orifice ( 10;18 ) that is non-circular. When in use, the non-circular orifice ( 10; 18 ) of the gas outlet ( 9 ) enhances the mixing of the gas flow with the ambient air and thus provides for a reduction of the sound level caused by the gas flow.
