New Mustang Survival MIT 100 Convertible A/M Inflatable PFD

Apr 9, 2024

The new Mustang Survival MIT (Membrane Inflatable Technology) 100 Convertible A/M Inflatable PFD is a lightweight and versatile option for inshore and coastal excursions.

The convertible inflator lets users choose between automatic and manual inflatable modes to suit their needs. Stowed neatly in the zippered hip pocket, the inflator cap for the specific use case is always within reach. The automatic mode deploys when the water-soluble inflator dissolves, while the manual mode activates only when you pull the inflation handle.

With its 1-fold design, repacking the bladder after deployment is quick and easy. When inflated, the MIT 100 provides 28 lbs. of buoyancy—1.5x more buoyancy than regular foam PFDs—and will turn most wearers face up.
