Mustang Survival set out to make the traditional Floater Coat™ more comfortable, better looking and overall more wearable. Introducing Mustang Survival's Catalyst flotation coat with the all new M-Tech Comfort System™. Harmonized across Canada and the US, the Catalyst Flotation Coat gives you the comfort, mobility and range of motion you want with the warmth your long days on the water won't compromise on. Kick the inconvenience of changing in and out of your PFD as you navigate on and off-board with the PFD integrated directly into one elements blocking jacket. Keep wind and moisture out with adjustable cuffs at the wrists. Stay covered up as you bend, twist and move with a longer cut that prevents riding up. The Catalyst Flotation Coat is your ultimate winter layer for the water. Field tested by Coast Guard training crews, fishing lodges, and Mustang PRO-staff.
When worn in combination, the Catalyst Flotation Coat and Catalyst Flotation Pant MP4240 provide an immersed Clo value of 0.17.

M-TECH COMFORT SYSTEM™
The secret to the most comfortable flotation jacket on the market utilizes the M-Tech Comfort System™. The M-Tech Comfort System™ is a 3-layer, waterproof, breathable, wearable flotation system.
1st Layer:
A wicking liner that aids breathability.
2nd Layer:
Segmented foam that moves and flexes with you.
3rd Layer:
A waterproof, breathable tri-laminate outer shell that keeps rain and spray in the ocean where they belong.
A coat that keeps you dry, floats you when you need it and is so comfortable you want to wear it even when you're not on the water. That's the M-Tech Comfort System™ and it's only available from Mustang Survival.
CATALYST OUTER SHELL MATERIAL SPECIFICATION
The Catalyst outer shell is a tri-laminate waterproof breathable material. It was initially designed for use in dry suits with the primary objective of keeping active people dry and comfortable. The table below outlines the material characteristics and associated user benefits.
Material Characteristic | Value | Benefit | Did You Know? |
---|---|---|---|
Tri-Laminate Construction | Double sided 200 x 320D nylon outer with a breathable inner membrane | Double sided nylon outer aids durability and prevents degradation of the breathable inner membrane. | Tri-laminate construction offers improved durability over a two layer laminate and is more breathable than coated fabrics. |
Waterproof | 10,000 mm / 24 hours | Keeps the wearer dry in severe conditions for prolonged periods of time. Thirty two feet of rain can fall on the coat within a 24 hour period before it will start to leak through. | Most water resistant jackets have a ~3,000 mm / 24 hour rating, while most water proof jackets have at least a 5,000 mm / 24 hour rating. |
Breathable | Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate >5,000 g / m2 / 24 hours | Allows body moisture to exit the garment, reducing heat stress and preventing moisture from accumulating within the garment. | 5,000 g / m2 / 24 hours is the base rate of most breathable fabrics. |
