Stainless Steel Backplate with DIR Harness Set

The ultimate modular system, robust and configured to DIR standards.

This complete set available on DIR-STORE combines the solid granite-like strength of a stainless steel backplate with the reliability of the Tecline DIR continuous harness. It is the perfect choice for the diver who wants to switch to a back-volume system (Wing and Plate) or for those looking for a clean configuration, free from breakage points (plastic buckles) and optimized for perfect buoyancy control (trim).

What the Set Includes:

1. 3mm or 6mm Stainless Steel Backplate

The backbone of the system. Made of marine-grade stainless steel resistant to saltwater, it features carefully chamfered edges to prevent webbing wear. It can be ordered in two thicknesses according to your fixed weight needs:

• 3mm Version (Weight ~2.00 kg): The ideal standard for both single and double tank configurations, excellent for balancing equipment.
• 6mm Version (Weight ~5.00 kg): Developed for those who dive in cold water with dry suits and heavy undersuits. It allows you to move 5 kg of weight directly onto your back, freeing your waist from the weight belt.

2. Tecline DIR Harness (Medium Standard Webbing)

A continuous harness made of a single piece of high-strength webbing, rigid enough to maintain its shape and facilitate donning. The DIR (Doing It Right) configuration eliminates accidental release points and includes:

• Mobile/Adjustable D-Rings: Positioned on the shoulders and waist strap for securely attaching primary lights, backup regulators, pressure gauges, and stage tanks.
• Weight Stops and Steel Buckle: To lock the D-rings in the correct position and ensure a secure ventral closure.

3. Crotch Strap

A fundamental element for in-water stability. It prevents the plate-wing assembly from sliding upwards during vertical ascent or descent, and prevents lateral rolling of the tank block. Includes a front D-ring (for towing with a scooter/DPV) and a rear one for a lift bag or secondary accessories.

Why Choose This Complete Set?

• Ready for Assembly: The kit provides all the necessary hardware components to create a standardized harness-plate system, universally compatible with any wing (Donut/Wing) on the market with a standard 11-inch (28 cm) center distance.
• Superior Trim and Hydrodynamics: The weight distribution of the backplate and the clean profile of the harness reduce drag in the water, allowing you to achieve a perfectly horizontal position effortlessly.
• Total Safety: The absence of joints or quick-release clips makes this system virtually indestructible and free from potential failure points.
