on

Apeks have released the following new products:

MTX-R Sidemount Set

The MTX-R sidemount set is a super tough, rugged, high performance, go anywhere sidemount regulator configuration designed to meet the rigours of cold water and extreme sidemount diving. Highly reliable and easy to service out in the field, this is the ideal choice for expedition and exploration divers.

First stages
  • Over balanced for superior performance.
  • Compact environmentally sealed diaphragm system completely eliminating the maintenance issues associated with silicone, oil or grease filling.
  • Recommended for frequent use in cold or contaminated water.
  • Environmental over-moulded endcap & diaphragm that helps prevent ice build-up that can cause first stage free flow in extreme circumstances. Also protects the first stage from impact damage.
  • Double swivel hose for greater freedom of movement and comfort.
  • 5 x 3/8” UNF medium pressure ports & 2 x 7/16” UNF high pressure ports.
  • The 5th 3/8” UNF medium pressure port includes a protective bumper when not in use.

60m Lifeline Spool

Inspired by technical diving and versatile enough to be used in a range of diving applications, the new 60m Lifeline spool features easy to grip flared sides to improve deployment and winding.

  • Colour coded to allow ease of identification of each size.
  • High quality, high visibility line.
  • Rugged construction.
  • High tensile line leader to avoid damage to main line when ‘tying off’.

The suit’s features leave nothing to be desired: A high-quality TiZip zipper, easily adjustable inlet and outlet valves, upgradeable with electrically heated underwear, HP bottleneck cuffs made of high-strength latex on the wrists, a 3mm neoprene neck cuff for maximum comfort, a 7mm hood with air outlet and 3mm boots made of double-sided, cross-layered neoprene with ankle straps and fin strap stoppers and a protective but very flexible sole.
