The pivot nut is a specialized fastening component, essential for assembling plate and bladder systems (BCS/BCD). This pivot nut is designed to create a low-profile, robust, and corrosion-resistant anchoring point.
Key Features:
-
Material: Made entirely of AISI 316 Stainless Steel, chosen for its exceptional resistance to salinity and the galvanic processes typical of the marine environment.
-
Function: Allows for secure attachment of the backplate to the bladder (BCD) and any single tank adapter (STA), or directly to the tank bands.
-
Low-Profile Design: The flat head of the nut is designed to minimize bulk against the diver's back, reducing the risk of chafing or uncomfortable pressure points during the dive.
-
Compatibility: Designed to pair with flat or countersunk screws with standard threading, ensuring superior mechanical retention compared to traditional nuts.
