Dry suit option - Swap the Stardard Apeks nipple for a Seatec fitting

Ref: SSOPTINSEATEC703

This option swaps the Apeks swivel inflator with a CENJ nipple (fitted as stanadard) for one with a Seatec nipple.

Whereas the Apecks coupling will push straight together the Seatec requires the collar on the hose to be pulled back while pushing it onto the valve. There is no extra cost for this change, the hose supplied with your suit will be matched to the valve nipple type

Dry suit Option - Latex Boots

Ref: SSUOPTLABTS

Latex boots offer greater durability than the neoprene but require additional socks to compensate for the reduced insulation (see Thinsulate sox) Please note these are no longer availble in size 40,41,44,45,46,47.

Dry suit Option - Compressed Neoprene socks

Ref: SSUOPTCOMPSOX

An alternative to having boots attached to the suit, 3mm compressed neoprene socks can be bonded on. When diving a conventional pair of wetsuit boots or some form of "rock boots" are worn over the top. This system is warm and very much reduces the air that can become trapped around the feet. Care should be taken not to walk distances in these as there is a risk of them becoming punctured.
The have the additional advantage of enabling the suit to be completely turned inside out for easy drying and servicing.
There is no additional charge to swap to these socks.

Dry suit Option - PU Shoulder Pads

Ref: SSUOPTRNSH

Price: £7.00 (Including VAT at 17.5%)

Polyurethane patches can be bonded on to the suit to protect against the wear caused by harness straps. With the outer fabric used on the Ultra drysuit we feel that these patches are not necessary except when the suit is used in the most arduous conditions, especially since they reduce stretch in the shoulder area which is critical for comfort and mobility.

Dry suit Option - PU Bum Pads

Ref: SSUOPTRNBUM

Price: £8.50 (Including VAT at 17.5%)
