Mustang Survival’s headquarters are in beautiful British Columbia, surrounded by thousands of freshwater lakes and right beside the majestic Pacific Ocean. For over 50 years, they have been perfecting their line of marine safety equipment for water rescue professionals, military, and commercial mariners alike.
If you’re battling the elements on a regular basis, you need to check out the Classic Floatation Suit. Designed to combat the harsh weather the Pacific Northwest can throw at you, the full-body suit is extremely durable, providing warmth and comfort even in frigid Canadian waters. It is engineered with closed-cell foam to provide floatation while also delaying the onset of hypothermia if you accidentally find yourself in the water. This suit also has an impressive CLO rating.
CLO measures the warmth retention levels of various materials. The base level is 0 representing a completely unclothed person -- AKA a skinny dipper! Some other CLO ratings of clothing items for comparison: Men’s briefs are 0.04, Sweatpants are 0.28, a thick sweater is 0.35, and a winter coat is 0.70. The Classic Floatation suit has a rating of 0.42 CLO when immersed in water, preserving precious body heat even when totally submerged.
The high-visibility orange suit has an insulated hood and Safety Of Life At Sea or SOLAS tape along the shoulders, so you’re easy to spot in an emergency.
The very first auto-inflatable life jacket to be approved by Transport Canada is the HIT Inflatable Life Jacket. A great product for commercial or regulatory use. Equipped with a strobe light holder, safety whistle, and SOLAS tape, you can hit the water worry-free in this superb safety solution. The Hydrostatic Inflator Technology automatically inflates when submerged in more than 4 inches of water. Once inflated, it provides 38lbs of buoyancy, that’s twice the floatation of most foam PFDs. The HIT Inflatable Life jacket is also completely maintenance-free for 5 years or until deployed. But if you do have to deploy it, we also carry the necessary re-arm kits. These come with a 33g CO2 cylinder, as well as an auto hydrostatic inflator cap and body.
The little brother to the HIT Inflatable Life Jacket is the MIT Inflatable Life Jacket. The Membrane Inflatable Technology reduces product weight and provides 28 lbs. of buoyancy when inflated. It comes with a manual inflation cord but it will also automatically inflate within seconds of water entry.
Along with that Classic Floatation Coat, you might want some Classic Floatation Bib Pants to complete your water-safe ensemble. The Adjustable suspenders and foam insulation add an extra layer of warmth and hypothermia protection.
If you don’t need a Full Body Floatation Suit, we have the Classic Floatation Coat. Made with closed-cell foam just like the full body suit, the coat has more functional elements incorporated into its design like two large front zipper pockets and a full-length storm flap. It comes with an adjustable waist belt and wrist seals to keep water out and warmth in. This coat meets industrial and regulatory requirements and is a standard uniform for many government agencies.
Now let’s say you are not an off-shore fisherman or a marine. Well, here at ohcanadasupply.ca we also carry a variety of PFDs to keep you safe next time you’re out on the water for commercial or recreational purposes.
Buoy-O-Buoy we sure do have a lot of great marine safety equipment to keep in mind. If you have any questions feel free to contact us and give us a follow-on social media so you can keep up to date with everything happening here!
