Swing Cartridge – Official CO₂ refill for Swing equestrian airbag vest
After each deployment of your Swing airbag vest, it is essential to replace the CO₂ cartridge to ensure optimal protection during your next rides.
Swing cartridges are specifically designed for Swing brand airbag vests. They guarantee a fast, reliable and consistent deployment of the airbag in the event of a fall, releasing the exact amount of gas required for full inflation. Each cartridge meets the strict safety standards defined by Swing for equestrian use.
Swing cartridge compatibility
These cartridges must be used exclusively with Swing airbag vests. Using a generic cartridge or one from another brand may impair the system’s performance, increase the risk of injury in the event of a fall, and void the warranty of your Swing airbag vest.
For maximum safety and long-term durability of your equipment, always strictly respect the compatibility between your Swing vest and its cartridge. Each Swing cartridge is engineered to fit perfectly with the brand’s triggering mechanism.
Which cartridge size should you choose?
Choosing the correct CO₂ volume is crucial to ensure optimal deployment of your Swing airbag vest. Each vest size corresponds to a specific cartridge, identified by a colour code and a precise weight. Using an unsuitable cartridge may result in incomplete inflation or malfunction of the airbag system.
Swing cartridge compatibility according to your airbag vest size:
- 33g cartridge (purple): for Swing airbag vests in size XXS / XS
- 38g cartridge (orange): for Swing airbag vests in size S / M
- 45g cartridge (blue): for Swing airbag vests in size L / XL
To avoid any mistakes:
- Always check the size indicated on the label of your Swing airbag vest.
- Verify the colour code and the weight engraved on the cartridge before installation.
- If you are unsure between two sizes, please contact our customer service team for personalised advice.
Warning: never use a cartridge with a higher or lower weight than the one recommended for your Swing vest size.
