Common Concerns Answered
I'm having trouble finding the right re-arm kit for my specific PFD model. How do I ensure compatibility?
This Mustang Re-Arm Kit K is specifically designed for the Mustang MIT 70 inflatable PFD (models MD4041 and MD4042). Always verify your PFD model number to confirm compatibility, preventing confusion with other brands or models.
I'm not sure if I need an automatic or manual inflator bobbin. Which one is included?
This kit includes an automatic inflator bobbin, which is essential for models like the Mustang MIT 70 MD4042 that feature automatic inflation. For manual inflation models, a different bobbin type may be required, so confirm your PFD's inflation mechanism before ordering.
Re-arming kits seem expensive. Is it really worth the cost?
While the upfront cost of re-arming kits may seem significant, it is a critical investment in your personal safety. A properly re-armed PFD ensures reliable flotation in an emergency, making the cost negligible compared to the potential consequences of a non-functional life-saving device.
