hydrostatic inflator technology (hit™)
exclusively available from Mustang Survival in north america, the Hit™ inflation technology has been used for over 10 years by professional and recreational users. inflatable PfDs with Hit™ technology will only inflate if submerged in 4 inches or more of water and will not prematurely inflate due to rain, spray or humidity.
MeMbrane inflation technology (M.i.t.™)
M.i.t.™ is the next generation of inflatable PfD technology designed by Mustang scientists. Made from stretch-fabrics derived from the medical industry, M.i.t.™ PfDs use less fabric, are 20% lighter than other inflatables, and offer a more comfortable and flexible fit.

inspection & Maintenance
Regular inspection and mainte-nance of your inflatable PFD will ensure it is ready to go when you need it most.
the best way to inspect your inflat-able is to orally inflate it through the oral inflation tube found by open-ing up the left side of the PFD. let the PFD sit overnight to make sure it retains all of the air. In the morn-ing, release the air, check the CO2 cylinder for corrosion and punctures and make sure the C02 cylinder is securely fit into the inflator.
Ifyouhaveabobbin-activatedauto-matic inflatable PFD, you should also check the expiry date on the bobbin. People boating in humid or wet conditions should change their bobbin regularly to prevent inadver-tent inflation.
With everything in good condition, youcannowre-packyourPFDandhead safely out to sea.

kids vests
the best vest for your child is the one that fits them. a vest that is too big may come off in the water and a vest that is too small may not provide adequate flotation.
the right fit for your kidthe easiest way to test this is to put the vest on your child, secure all zippers and buckles and tighten all belts. Once this is done, put your fingers underneath the shoulder straps and pull upwards. If the vest starts to slide over the child’s face or head, it means the vest is too big and could slip off in the water.
alternatively, if you were unable to secure the zippers and buckles, it is time to move up to the next size. With the fitting process complete, you and your family can take to the water wearing the highest quality products on the market.

finding the right vestFoam vests are easy to maintain and come ina rangeof sizes. Keythings to consider when choosing your vest are the requirements of your water activities. For example, if you are going to be sitting in your boat all day, you will be most com-fortable in a shorter vest that does not ride up when you sit down.
try it ontry the vest on before you purchase it, secure and tighten all zippers, buckles and belts to assess the fit. Pay special attention to any chafing or pressure around the neck, collar bone and underarms.
coMfort is keyselecting a vest that is comfortable for the entire length of your activity means you are more likely to wear it, and we always say the best PFD is the one you wear.

therMal protection
In just 20minutes, cold water candeprive you of all mental and physi-cal capacities, leading to hypother-mia, unconsciousness and even death. Our engineers have done extensive research to understand cold-watersurvival.
science of cold water survivalHow long a person can survive in cold water depends on the water’s temperature, exposure time, and the thermal insulation of the vic-tim’s protective clothing.
to create the most effective protec-tion, we evaluate the clothing’s insu-lation(measuredwiththeunit”Clo”).We determine the rate at which heat is lost from the body, and the difference in temperature between the skin and the water. From these values, predictions can be made of the rate a person’s body tempera-ture will drop in cold water.
increasing survival tiMesWearing Mustang survival products can increase cold water survival times. Our products are interlined with our exclusive airsoft™ closed cell foam. this foam not only pro-vides maximum insulation against the cold, it also keeps you afloat to protect you from drowning.
With 45 years of experience applying innovative technologies to practical lifesaving solutions, Mustang Survival researches, designs and produces quality lifesaving products for recreational, professional and military users. We perform extensive research to design and manufacture quality lifesaving products for the world’s most demanding and unpredictable environments. our products provide flotation and extreme climate protection to leisure boaters, sailors, industrial marine workers, coast guards, fighter pilots and even naSa astronauts. Whatever the application, serious users depend on Mustang Survival.
