Backplate Pad w/Sleeve

#BC1035

New for 2010, our Backplate Pad has been redesigned to include a convenient sleeve for lift bags and surface marker tubes. Created for use with hard metal backplates, the Backplate Pad alleviates pokes and prods from the plate into the soft area of the back. It attaches securely to any hard backplate by threading the shoulder straps through webbing loops at the top of the pad. The lower portion of the pad attaches through the crotch strap slot with a webbing loop. A quick release buckle allows the pad to be lifted away from the plate for easy access to bolts when diving double tanks. Open-cell porous design allows the pad to release water and dry quickly, plus it resists compression allowing the pad to maintain its thickness and comfort-providing shape at depth. Quick-dry fabric and drainage holes quickly release water and aid in drying. Made in the U.S.A.

  • Constructed of 400 denier nylon face and 1000 denier ballistic nylon backing.
  • Quick-dry foam padding with an open-cell porous design allows the pad to release water and dry in a hurry.
  • Two marine-grade 316 stainless steel grommets resist rust and corrosion and provide drainage.
  • 10.5 inches wide x 16-inches high (27cm x 41)
  • 6oz (170g)
  • Made in U.S.A.
