Common Concerns Answered
Will the adhesive hold securely on my inflatable tube?
The Navisafe Navimount RIB uses high-quality 3M adhesive, known for its superior bonding capabilities on marine materials like Hypalon, Polyethylene, and PVC. For optimal adhesion, ensure the tube surface is meticulously cleaned and completely dry prior to application, as recommended by some users.

This mount is designed for various Navilight bases. However, specific Navilight models (001, 010, 040, 305, 340) require the Navisafe converter Navimount / 960 for proper attachment. Navilight models 041 and 341 do not require an additional converter.
How durable is the adhesive in harsh marine environments?
The 3M adhesive utilized is engineered for marine applications, providing robust performance. While long-term durability is a concern for some, proper surface preparation and avoiding prolonged submersion immediately after installation will maximize its lifespan on your inflatable.
