Plate

Made from type 304 stainless
steel, which is high in tensile strength and is passivated for good corrosion
resistance. Being the heart of a technical buoyancy system, these back
plates are press formed individually and all edges on both sides are deburred
and rounded to avoid cutting the harness. Apart from the 5cm (2”) slots
for the harness and crotch strap, there are 10 additional perimeter holes
for mounting equipment such as stage bottle, torches etc. There are also
3 sets of holes, each 11 inches apart, along the centre of the plates for
attaching the single tank adaptor or twin tank bands.
weighs 2.3kg (5lb).

The aluminium
back plate is made from type 6061 aluminium for its strength to weight
ratio. At 700g (1.54lb), this plate is ideal for warm water diving or travelling,
when the lesser weight the better. |
