Buying Second-Hand Zenair Floats:
Occasionally, you will find used Zenair floats for sale on the second-hand market. Potential buyers should be aware that these floats were likely assembled by an amateur-builder and that the quality of workmanship can vary greatly from one such builder to another. Inspect the floats and workmanship closely before buying! Also, make sure to request and receive all related documentation (invoices, packing slips, drawings, manuals, etc). so that you can properly maintain and repair the floats as necessary. After you have purchased your floats, and in order to receive related technical support from Zenair, you will need to register the transfer of ownership with Zenair. Contact Zenair or AFM Inc. for the appropriate form (myfloats@gmail.com).
WARNING: Do NOT confuse floats (or float kits) supplied by CZAW with Zenair Floats! Floats made by CZAW are highly modified Zenair floats using European measurements and accessories. Parts are not interchangeable and Zenair does NOT carry or manufacture parts for CZAW floats. Sorry, but we cannot assist you if you have CZAW floats.

Save money by assembling your own floats; order this DVD to see how...
The "Building your Zenair Floats" DVD is a great tool to assist with the jigging and assembly of a Basic Parts Kit (BPK). In addition to the DVD, you will also have the complete set of CAD assembly drawings and the numerous photo assembly instructions supplied with the kit to follow.
With a pre-drilled kit, the factory pre-assembles the floats and all the holes are drilled. When you get a pre-drilled kit, you can start riveting as soon as the holes are de-burred. No measuring, no marking... Simply line up the parts and start riveting after applying corrosion-protection and sealer between the parts.
