24g CO2 Cartridge Designed for Marine Safety & Life Jackets

Marine Ready Inflation Power

The 24g CO2 cartridge is the standard choice for many global lifejacket and marine-safety manufacturers. Built for reliable single-use inflation, this cartridge delivers the rapid, controlled gas release required for emergency flotation devices.
At Populargas, we manufacture these cartridges with strict marine-grade specifications, ensuring each unit performs flawlessly in harsh conditions saltwater exposure, humidity, long-term storage, and sudden activation.

 

Every 24g cartridge undergoes multi-step precision inspections, including internal clean-air flushing, ultrasonic leak testing, and weight validation to ensure the correct fill volume. Whether you’re producing auto-inflatable PFDs, manual-pull vests, or custom marine buoyancy systems, this size offers a trusted balance of inflation force and compact design.
