NRS Matik Inflatable PFD

An alternative to waist-belted PFDs, the low-profile NRS Matik Inflatable PFD resembles a traditional lifevest with the compact convenience of an inflatable. a This lightweight self-inflating PFD provides 22.5 lbs. of flotation and only meets U.S. Coast Guard requirements as a Type III life jacket when worn. (See Note below.) a The Matik folds compactly into a low-profile horse-collar style jacket to give you on-demand flotation that doesn&';t get in your way stand-up paddling, fishing or wading. a When deflated, the vest secures with a waist buckle and offers one adjustment point for a snug fit. a The Matik does not inflate automatically; in the event of a swim, pull the red tab to engage the pressurized CO2, inflating the integrated bladder. a Features a zippered pocket with internal tether for keys or a whistle plus a manual backup cord, mouth inflation valve, reflective accents and two attachment points. a Includes a 24 gram CO2 cartridge. Replacement CO2 Re-Arming Kits (Item #40100.01) are sold separately. a CO2 cartridges are one-time-use only. It&';s good practice to keep an extra CO2 cartridge on hand to re-arm the PFD after each inflation.
