Sopras Tek Stage Bottle Rigging
The Sopras Tek Stage Bottle Rigging Kits come with everything a diver needs to correctly set up secondary bottles for years of technical diving.
Resistant to breakage, rot and splitting, Sopras Tek logo nylon webbing creates a durable and long-lasting foundation for stage rigging, yet can be cut free in case of entanglement. A piece of black plastic tubing slides over the webbing to form a comfortable handle on the carrying strap. Rugged EPDM hose retainers elasticity through extreme heat and cold, and will not slip on your cylinder when a hose is being stowed or deployed. A large webbing loop on the retainer is easy to grip even with gloves on. Marine grade stainless steel cylinder clamp and hardware are saltwater ready and resistant to corrosion. A tubular nylon webbing covers the tank clamp and screw for abrasion protection. Assembled as a kit, divers have a choice between versions for 5-inch (Small) or 7-inch (Large) cylinders and both come with XL stainless bolt snaps.
- Large fits cylinders approximately {6 1/2″ to 8″ in | 165mm to 210mm } in diameter (LP-72, LP-80, AL-80, HP-80, LP-85, HP-100; Metric: 9L, 10.5L, 12.2L)
Although a common practice, the fuel hose should not be used as a carry handle. Always carry the tank by the valve, because using the hose as a carry handle will cause the rigging to become loose and necessitate readjustment.
