Description
The V-Weight with bracket is a fixed weight system specifically designed for twinset configurations, ideal for technical divers who wish to optimize weight distribution and balance in the water.
Unlike lead weights inserted into the backplate, this model is shaped to fit externally in the central channel between the two cylinders. It attaches quickly and securely directly to the threaded studs of the twinset bands thanks to its robust integrated bracket. This positioning shifts the center of gravity of the ballast exactly along the central axis of the system, dramatically improving flat trim (horizontal hydrodynamic trim) and relieving the lower back from the classic weight belt.
Key Features and Technical Specifications:
Direct Attachment to Twinset Bands: The marine-grade stainless steel bracket is designed with specific slots to be threaded and bolted directly onto the studs of the bands that connect the cylinders, ensuring a rock-solid, wobble-free attachment.
Optimized Trim and Balance: By placing the weight in the space between the two cylinders, the weight is distributed geometrically perfectly, helping to counteract the positive buoyancy of the wing and wetsuit without burdening the diver's back.
Hydrodynamic "V" Profile: The shape is precisely modeled to disappear into the space between the cylinders, maintaining an ultra-clean, compact configuration free of snags or hydrodynamic protrusions.
Technical Grade Materials: High-quality solid lead casting combined with a high-strength stainless steel bracket, totally inert to the corrosive action of saltwater.
Available Weight Options:
Select the ideal variant based on the buoyancy of your wetsuit (wet or dry) and your trim needs:
- 2 kg Version: Excellent as a trim weight for lighter configurations or trilaminate drysuits with light undersuits.
- 3 kg Version: The ideal choice for those who need more weight on the body (e.g., using neoprene drysuits or very thick undersuits) to maintain a stable descent and decompression stop.
Target Usage:
The V-Weight with band bracket is an essential accessory for technical, exploration, and DIR divers using twinsets. It is the preferred solution for configuring a fixed, secure, and perfectly integrated weight system within the cylinder block, leaving the harness and waist completely free of clutter.
