Common Concerns Answered
Is this accessory robust enough for harsh marine conditions?
While featuring a durable black finish, this accessory is designed primarily for securing a Garmin MOB Tag and includes a foam keychain. For extreme conditions requiring a more robust metal carabiner, alternative solutions may be considered, but this unit provides excellent functionality for its intended purpose.
Will the 20 mm quick-release attachment fit all my gear?
The 20 mm quick-release attachment is specifically sized for the Garmin MOB Tag system. If you require attachment to larger points, ensure compatibility or consider alternative securing methods.
Do I really need a dedicated accessory for my MOB Tag?
This accessory offers a dual-option carrying solution (clip or floating keychain) specifically designed for the Garmin MOB Tag, ensuring it's always within reach and can be secured to various points on a vessel or person, which a generic carabiner may not provide with the same level of integration and buoyancy.
Frequently Asked Questions

Is the carabiner clip waterproof?
The materials used in the construction of the carabiner clip and floating keychain are designed to withstand marine environments, including exposure to saltwater. The floating keychain specifically ensures buoyancy.
Can I use this carabiner clip for other purposes besides the MOB Tag?
While designed for the Garmin MOB Tag, the carabiner clip's 20 mm quick-release attachment can theoretically be used for other small, lightweight items. However, its primary utility and warranty benefits are tied to its use with the specified MOB Tag.
What is the quick-release attachment size?
The quick-release attachment measures 20 mm in width.
