NRS Otto Matik Inflatable PFD
The NRS Otto Matik Inflatable PFD automatically inflates upon contact with water delivering on-demand flotation. This lightweight self-inflating PFD provides 22.5 lbs. of flotation and only meets U.S. Coast Guard requirements as a Type III lifejacket when worn.
The Otto Matik folds compactly into a low-profile horse-collar style jacket to give you on-demand flotation that doesn't get in your way. In the event of a “swim”, the integrated bladder instantly automatically inflates with CO2 gas pressure when immersed in water. When deflated, the vest secures with a waist buckle and offers one adjustment point for a snug fit.

Notes:
• An inflatable PFD is certified by the US Coast Guard as a Type V PFD. However, it meets Coast Guard requirements for Type III PFDs when it is worn. In other words, you must be wearing the deflated collar for it to qualify as a required flotation device.
• Replacement CO2 Re-Arming Kits (Item #40100.01) are sold separately.
• 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.
