When you're out on the water, having reliable safety equipment isn't just a smart choice—it's essential. The Onyx A/M-24 Automatic/Manual Inflatable Life Jacket delivers peace of mind with its dual inflation system, ensuring you're protected whether you're fishing from a kayak, sailing across the lake, or simply enjoying a day on the water.
What sets this life jacket apart is its intelligent automatic inflation system. Upon water immersion, the jacket instantly inflates to provide 22.5 pounds of buoyancy, keeping your head above water when it matters most. But what really makes it special is the flexibility to convert to manual-only mode for activities like paddling or fly-fishing where you might get wet but don't want accidental inflation.
Don't let bulky life jackets ruin your time on the water. This Onyx model features a low-profile, compact design that stays cool in warm weather while providing the safety you need. The adjustable body belt and front buckle closure ensure a secure fit for chest sizes 30"-52", while the comfortable neoprene neckline prevents chafing during extended wear.
Constructed with durable materials including 200 denier nylon ripstop and 200 denier nylon oxford protective cover, this inflatable life jacket is designed to withstand the rigors of regular use. The stretchable Flex-Back insert provides added comfort and mobility, so you can move freely while staying protected.
After inflation, simply re-arm the jacket using the Onyx Rearming Kit #1352 (sold separately). The backup oral inflation tube provides an additional layer of safety, and the manual conversion cap ensures you have complete control over when and how your jacket inflates. For best results, it's recommended to purchase an extra rearming kit to familiarize yourself with the operation before heading out on the water.
Approved for users 16 years or older and over 80 lbs, this U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jacket combines reliability, comfort, and practical functionality—making it the perfect companion for your next water adventure.
