HIT™ High Visibility Inflatable Life Jacket (Auto Hydrostatic)
Frequently Bought Together
Mustang Survival designed their HIT™ Inflatable Life Jacket for Law Enforcement with enhanced safety measures and minimal maintenance to meet the challenges of demanding users!
Mustang Survival’s most popular inflatable features convenient safety measures in a comfortable, low-profile design that can be worn in conjunction with your Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in the most severe marine environments. Maintenance free for five years, the HIT™ inflatable will turn unconscious wearers face up and go unnoticed while you perform rigorous activities thanks to its lightweight design.
Automatic Inflatable
Designed to automatically inflate when submerged in 4 inches or more of water, their Hydrostatic Inflator Technology will not prematurely inflate due to rain, spray, or humidity. Designed for use in severe weather, the HIT™ offers reliable, low maintenance inflation. The built-in, arming status window shows green when your inflator is properly armed and ready to use.
You will want to visually inspect your life jacket for leaks, rips, holes, or tears between uses and examine the indicator window ensuring it is green and not red. If red, the mechanism requires service and you will need to rearm your life jacket. Rearm with a Mustang Survival Auto-Hydrostatic 33g Rearming Kit C (sold separately). In case of emergency or malfunction, manually inflate this life jacket by pulling the yellow lanyard tab or by blowing in the oral inflation tube.
Comfort
Inflatable life jackets are designed to be lightweight and low profile offering maximum mobility. This feature minimizes bulk so it fits well over your rash guard or offshore jacket. As Mustang Survival’s most popular inflatable, the HIT™ can also be comfortably worn over your PPE. With its freedom of movement, you can wear this life jacket for extended periods of time without noticing it. A neoprene collar adds extra comfort for long days of wear. With its single buckle design, it is easy to don on and off as well.
Construction
Constructed from durable 410-Denier nylon and heavy-duty polyurethane coated nylon material, this Inflatable life jacket was built for use in all weather conditions. Featuring a patented SecureZip™ closure system around the bladder to ensure the life jacket will not inflate during rigorous activity, but will open effortlessly when submerged in water.

With high visibility ANSI approved fluorescent yellow coloring and 64 square inches of ANSI reflective tape this life jacket is ANSI 107-2004 Class2 compliant – simply wear with a Diamond Rubber Products 8972 mesh vest.
