Apeks Exotec BCD (Grey)

The back-inflated Apeks Exotec BCD (Grey) is a revolution in diving comfort, functionality and seductive engineering design. The ethos behind Exotec is the synthesis of equipment and diver.

Exotec BCD with an 18kg lift capacity was created to fit like no other BCD and flow with the natural movement of the diver’s body, through the innovative BioReact articulation.

Constructed with the usual, exacting Apeks build quality, the Exotec is a paradigm of form and function.

Materials

The bladder of the Apeks Exotec BCD is made from the same Armourguard fabric that Apeks uses on their Public Safety Diver products. It is extremely durable and does not absorb water. GripTek fabric keeps the BCD in place both on the surface and underwater.

Waist System

BioReact articulating waist system for maximum comfort and freedom of movement allows the Apeks Exotec BCD to move as you move.

Harness System

The Wrapture harness system works in harmony with the BioReact waist. This allows you to walk upright when out of the water with the cylinder weight distributed evenly on your hips. The G-Hook system allows for one-handed opening and closing of the chest strap.

Integrated Weights & Pockets

The patented SurLock I Mechanical Weight System provides a safe, single-pull weight release in case of an emergency. Each weight pocket can hold up to 4.5kg. Both weight pockets have large folding pockets attached for storing any accessories.

Adjustability

Multiple adjustments allow you to customise the fit of the Apeks Exotec BCD which comes in three sizes.

Modular

The Apeks Exotec BCD is designed to be repaired and not replaced. All of the components and straps are modular and can be easily changed.
