Apeks BCs
The backbone of any system - this cleverly designed back plate can be used with
the webbed harness or inserted into the WTX Harness.
• Made of 316 stainless steel
• Weighs approx 5 lbs (2.2 kg)
• 4 each upper and lower slots accommodate nylon cylinder bands so a single cylinder
can be strapped directly to the plate. Having a series of 4 slots provides lateral stability
of the cylinder that traditional 2 slot plates cannot
• 3 holes at the top of the plate offer a range of height adjustments for the buoyancy
cells and the cylinders. In addition, a corresponding lower center slot allows for lower
band bolts that are misaligned
• 2” wide crotch strap slot
• Upper and lower perimeter holes along either side and holes along the bottom allow
for the mounting of accessories
• Textured, electro-plate finish and a laser-etched Apeks logo round out the look of the
plate
This single cylinder buoyancy cell can mate to the WTX Harness or directly to
the back plate.
• Gussets along each side allow for a full 32 lbs of lift without compromising the overall
size of the WTX3
• 4 slots allow it to be mounted to a WTX harness or back plate using upper and lower
nylon cylinder bands
• 2 pairs of grommets allow the WTX3 to be bolted on if a single cylinder mounting kit is
used
• A 2”
(5cm) wide restriction band at the bottom of the WTX3 allows the cylinder to
nestle into the inflated buoyancy cell so it doesn’t get pushed away from your body
• A 2”
(5cm) D-ring on the restrictor band is a convenient place to add accessories like a
surface marker buoy
• The airway comes off the top back center of the cell. A safety cable inside the elliptical
hose prevents hyperextension of the corrugated hose
• Features the Apeks technical inflator with brass buttons
• Includes front, lower left pull dump
• Constructed from durable 840-denier nylon
