Luxfer – 80 Cu Ft. Aluminum Cylinder

$339.99

Includes Bluesteel DIN/Yoke Convertible K-Valve

Tank Boot extra ($19.99)

In 1988, Luxfer introduced scuba tanks manufactured from L6X, a proprietary formula of aluminum alloy 6061-T6 developed by Luxfer metallurgists to provide superior corrosion-resistance and dependable performance in the most demanding underwater environments. The manufacturing of Luxfer scuba cylinders has been relocated to the Graham, North Carolina factory. The original tooling is being used to maintain the same specifications, buoyancy and weight distribution. Proprietary L6X 6061-T6 aluminum alloy which has an unsurpassed record for safety and dependability will continue to be used. Luxfer is the preferred choice by military, commercial and technical divers worldwide.

The Aluminum 80 cu ft (11.1 liters) cylinder is the staple of the diving industry. You most likely used them in your first Scuba Class and on most charter boats around the world. The tank is a 3000 psi (200 bars) service pressure tank measuring 25.8″ (65.5cm) tall with a 7.3″ (18.5cm) diameter. The cylinder weighs 24.4lbs (18.64kg) is negative 1.7lbs (771g) when full in salt water and is positively buoyant 4.2lbs (1.9kg) when empty.

Aluminum cylinders unlike steel cylinders don’t rust, they oxidize. The oxidization of aluminum forms a protective coat that hinders the continuation of corrosion making aluminum cylinders less likely to be condemned due to excessive corrosion.Note: All Luxfer cylinders are nitrox ready and meet certificated specifications of the US Department of Transportation (DOT) with DOT-3AL specification and Transport Canada Safety and Security (TC) with TC-3ALM specifications.

  • Aqua Lung – Linea Mask

    $124.95

    Aqualung has gone the distance with this one! As part of the Women’s Collection, the Linea offers features to women unsurpassed in a mask. The “Comfort Buckle System” solves what so many women have asked for – a tangle free buckle! The Linea delivers a wide-angle view in an ultra-compact package. Modeled with Aqua Lung’s “Micromask Technology”, the close proximity of the lenses to the eyes significantly improves peripheral vision while maintaining an incredibly low internal volume. Aqua Lung’s “Advanced Fit Technology” uses textured bands of silicone around the skirt to form a superior seal against the face and minimizes water entry, as well as, reduces those lines left on your face after a dive. The Linea is effortless to clear and its low profile is ideal for freedivers or any diver that wants to reduce in-water drag.

  • Cressi – Big Eyes Evolution Crystal Mask

    $119.95

    Not only has this new Cressi Crystal Silicone been chosen,with its exceptional softness and comfort, but the entire design of the skirt has followed new rules which allow a point of contact between the mask and the face that has a very open angle.

    The mask rests on the face with unprecedented comfort and does not leave any marks on the skin, even after extended use.

    Naturally, to obtain such a result the entire structure of the skirt is differentiated, with internal ribs that stiffen the parts of the mask that are most stressed.

    The ultimate in comfort and performance, the Big Eyes Evolution Crystal combines the best of Cressi technologies.

    Raked lenses, with Cressi’s inverted tear-drop shape, are placed close to the eyes for an exceptional field of view, and the Crystal Silicone skirt delivers excellent light transmission while resisting discoloration and fogging.

    The Crystal Silicone skirt also seals gently against the skin with a very open angle that accommodates a wide range of facial shapes.

  • Cressi – Eyes Evolution Crystal Mask

    $119.95

    Not only has this new Cressi Crystal Silicone been chosen,with its exceptional softness and comfort, but the entire design of the skirt has followed new rules which allow a point of contact between the mask and the face that has a very open angle.

    The mask rests on the face with unprecedented comfort and does not leave any marks on the skin, even after extended use.

    Naturally, to obtain such a result the entire structure of the skirt is differentiated, with internal ribs that stiffen the parts of the mask that are most stressed.

    The raked lenses(Cressi patent), are quite small and are brought as close to the pupils as possible, so that the already extraordinary visibility of the Matrix is increased by 25%.

    The headband uses the exclusive patented Cressi system of double injection of an elastomer on a rigid element and allows the buckles of the strap to be mounted not on the skirt structure, as done by our competitors, but on anindestructible elastic element that tilts on a vertical plane and can be completely bent sideways on a 180° curve.

    The thickness of the headband has been reduced to such an extent as to make it practically invisible when the mask is being worn.

  • Cressi – Matrix Mask

    $79.95

    Following the revolutionary principles introduced by the Big Eyes, the Matrix establishes new records.
    The patented concept of raked lenses and their special “inverted drop” is developed further here.

    The lenses are placed as closely as possible to the eyes, with the further increase in the field of vision taken to the maximum levels possible.

    The newly designed headband is very narrow and is practically invisible when the mask is being worn.

    In the upper part of the headband there are inserts in a rubber material that not only has a strong grip but is also aesthetically attractive.

    The soft silicone skirt has a new profile and a wide sealing ring for excellent grip and unprecedented comfort.

    The internal volume of the mask is exceptionally low, lower than that of many free diving models and the weight is decidedly low.

    Two pressure buckles, integrated into the headband,allow for quick and accurate adjustment of the strap.

    The latter has a new design with a very wide support area at the back of the neck for magnificent comfort.

    An excellent mask for both snorkeling and scuba diving.

  • Aqua Lung – Teknika Mask

    $124.95

    Built to withstand the rigors of technical diving, the Teknika’s two-piece shock resistant frame is assembled with AISI 304 stainless steel bolts and screws for superior strength. The twin-lens design provides an excellent field of view and the dark skirt eliminates distracting side-light, a feature many technical divers appreciate when spending long hours in the water.

    • Stainless steel AISI 304 bolts and screws deliver incredible strength and resist corrosion from saltwater exposure.
    • Mask skirt and buckles fold flat, making the Teknika easy to carry as a back-up mask in a BC pocket.
