Life Jackets with 275 N

A 275N life jacket is particularly suitable for offshore sailors who want to be safe even in high seas and difficult conditions. When buying a 275 N life jacket, it is important to note that the weight of the wearer is not a factor in the choice of life jacket. Instead, what matters more is the extent to which the jacket is unconscious-safe, so that it has enough buoyancy to keep you afloat even when wearing heavy oilskins or in extreme weather conditions and keep you in a safe position if unconscious.

Life Jackets with 275 N

- Optimal for offshore conditions -

Automatic life jackets with 275 N buoyancy are the right choice for the high seas and extreme weather conditions. Especially if you wear offshore clothing or heavy protective gear, a 275 N class life jacket should be chosen to compensate for the volume of air trapped in the clothing in an emergency. Life Jackets with 275 N and 150 N are usually worn as a preventative measure. i.e. permanently on board, and must therefore offer the greatest possible freedom of movement and be very comfortable as well as capable of withstanding mechanical demands. These benefits make an automatic jacket much more expensive than a foam life jacket. Automatic life jackets must also be serviced every 2 years.

Many life jackets have a greater buoyancy force than their classification suggests. For example, many 275 N life jackets actually have 300 N of buoyancy force and thus offer a greater degree of safety.

We explain everything about life jackets and the differences between automatic 150 N and 275 N life jackets in our life jacket guide and our life jacket video.
