Tecline 11x117 cm SMB Kit with Metal Valve + 24 m Delrin Spool

This excellent kit, fully branded Tecline, combines a professional SMB (surface marker buoy) with a compact spool. It is an integrated, robust surface signaling system (SMB) that complies with technical and DIR diving standards. It is an essential tool for signaling your position to the support boat during decompression stops or in an emergency.

1. Tecline SMB (Surface Marker Buoy) 11/117 cm

• Dimensions: 11 cm wide and 117 cm long. A hydrodynamic profile designed to ensure excellent visibility on the surface (even in choppy seas) without offering excessive resistance to the current during deployment.
• Metal Valve: Equipped with an overpressure and dump valve (OPV) with a metal body. This construction choice ensures maximum precision in releasing excess air during ascent, impact resistance, and a much longer lifespan than plastic valves.

Available Colors:

• Orange: The international standard color for routine signaling and regular decompression.
• Yellow: Typically used as an emergency signal (e.g., "problem on board/out of gas") or to differentiate roles within the team.
• Spool Material: Made from solid Delrin (POM). This technopolymer guarantees extreme structural resistance to impacts, reduced weight in water, and total absence of corrosion.

      2. Tecline Spool Variants and Kit Configuration:

The kit is distributed by DIR-STORE in the optimal 24-meter configuration, supplied complete with high-visibility line and a marine-grade stainless steel double-ended bolt snap.

• Line Length: 24 meters, for a greater operational margin and deeper deployments.
• Line Colors: Available in fluorescent Orange or Yellow, colors chosen to facilitate visual tracking of the line itself during unwinding.

Technical Advantages of the Tecline Configuration:

1. Ready to Use: The kit arrives already assembled with the line perfectly wound onto the Tecline spool and the stainless steel bolt snap necessary for securing and attaching to the line or the SMB.
2. DIR Safety: The Tecline spool design eliminates the risk of jamming or tangling typical of traditional reels with clutches or handles.
3. Compact Storage: Both components can be stored flat and neatly in a wetsuit/BCD pocket or attached directly to the back D-ring of the backplate.
