Life Jackets (PFD)

Description: Lifejackets are made to one of three standards in Australia. Lifejackets should be selected for the right purpose, not the right budget.
AS1512 PFD1 provides a high level of buoyancy, maintaining the wearer in a safe floating position - ie with the body inclined backwards from the vertical, with the nose and mouth clear of the water. A PFD1 type of jacket is required for every person onboard a boat in coastal waters. Vest types are more comfortable to wear than the Standard, Coastal or Solas types.
AS1499 PFD2 provides sufficient buoyancy to assist the wearer to maintain their head above water, but not as much buoyancy as a PFD1. It is less bulky than a PFD1, making it more suitable for applications where the wearer needs to move about, or swim, such as dingy or board sailors, water skiers and canoeists etc. 60% of the jacket must be in safety colours.
AS2260 PDF3 provides a similar amount of buoyancy as a PFD2, but is permitted to carry a wider range of colours. They are popular with water skiers & jet skiers in sheltered waters where assistance is readily at hand.
