Common Concerns Answered
What if I can't find the exact re-arm kit for my specific PFD model?
Using only genuine Mustang Survival re-arm kits for your specific PFD model is critical. Non-compatible kits can lead to potential malfunctions, void your warranty, and compromise safety. Always verify the SKU and PFD model compatibility before purchasing.

Is the cost of re-arm kits a significant ongoing expense?
While re-arm kits are a necessary purchase after each deployment to ensure safety, their cost is directly related to maintaining a fully functional life-saving device. Consider this an essential investment in your boating safety, comparable to regular maintenance on engine or safety equipment.
