The Apeks Exotec BCD is a revolution in diving comfort, functionality and alluring engineering. The spirit behind Exotec is the synthesis of equipment and diver. It is designed to fit like no other BCD and with the natural movement of the diver's body through the innovative BioReact articulation.
Exotec built with the usual, demanding Apeks construction quality
•BioReact articulated waist system for maximum comfort and freedom of movement. •GripTek fabric keeps the BCD in place both on the surface and underwater. •The bladder is made of extremely durable Armoguard smooth leather, so it is more resistant to wear, faster drying and the risk of bacterial growth is reduced due to the slippery surface. •The anodized aluminum hardware is strong and light. •G-Hook chest strap and tank attachment allow for easy one-handed operation. •The 3-position height-adjustable back panel enables an optimal fit. •Adjustable weight and shoulders. •2 large pockets can be folded flat when not in use to reduce air resistance. •Wrapture Strap System – Thanks to patented rotating shoulder buckles and a patented ultra-thin back panel, Wrapture provides unsurpassed comfort and stability. Wrapping prevents the BC from "rising" to the surface. Out of the water, the Wrapture keeps the cylinder close to your center of gravity and transfers the weight to your hips. The result is the ability to stand upright with a perfectly vertical cylinder. •Thanks to the multiple size settings on the top of the shoulders and on both sides of the waistband, a unique fit can be achieved with any of the three sizes. •SureLock l mechanical weight release system (patented) – provides safe, one-time release. Inserting the weight is as easy as inserting and 'clicking'. SureLock keeps your weights safe in the BC. Once turned on, the only way to release the weight is to pull the handle. •There are a total of 4 drain valves, one in each corner. 3 patented flat valves and very streamlined and efficient. The drain valve in the upper left corner is the quick exhaust valve on top of the Powerline inflator. •The Powerline inflator assembly boasts one of the fastest inflation rates in the industry. This eco-friendly unit has built-in clips to secure the LP inflation hose. •A dual bladder retraction system is used to retract the sides of the bladder during deflation. This keeps the unit streamlined and reduces drag.
