This UML-5 lifejacket replacement capsule is a generic, aftermarket cartridge rather than a brand-specific spare, so it suits any automatic lifejacket built around the older UML-5 inflator, a design used across Crewsaver, Baltic, Typhoon and several other manufacturers. It fits the UML-5 inflator only. It is not interchangeable with the newer UML-5i or with Pro Sensor and Pro Sensor Elite inflators, so check your existing capsule and cap colour before ordering. The capsule is supplied loose, with no clip, head or retail box, so it suits anyone who already has the retaining clip and simply needs a fresh cartridge. It screws directly into the inflator and activates automatically on contact with water, needing no adjustment after fitting. Checking the printed expiry date each season is good practice for anyone sailing off the Irish coast, where a lifejacket sees regular salt exposure and heavy use.
