FLOTEX Flotation Assist System - Non Coast Guard Approved
Flotex Insulation System
FXR Flotex items are NOT Coast Guard Approved
Flotex insulation is made from an expanded low-density polyethylene foam membrane that has excellent insulation properties wet or dry. Flotex is water repellent and moisture resistant while retaining excellent user mobility. An FXR suit with the Flotex Insulation System offers buoyancy properties for up to two hours, giving you added protection over a standard FXR insulated snowmobile suit.
The following FXR products utilize Flotex technology:
2010 Adrenaline X1 Jacket 2010 Team SX Jacket & Pant 2010 Extreme One-Piece Suit
IMPORTANT - Do not mistake an FXR Flotex jacket and pant suit or our FXR Extreme One-Piece Suit as a true “Floater Suit”. If your goal is to purchase a Coast Guard Approved suit with maximum floatation then contact your dealer for a suitable product. Our Team and Extreme Flotex suits provide exceptional mobility, warmth, style and attention to detail while offering buoyancy properties but are NOT COAST GUARD APPROVED. FXR jackets and pants with Flotex must be worn together as a suit to achieve buoyancy properties. FXR Flotex suits will be rendered ineffective in adverse conditions such as strong water currents. Remember, you are 30 – 40 times more likely to get hypothermia when you are wet even when wearing a Flotex product. If you do get wet it is critically important to immediately change into warm dry clothing.
