Questions? Cylinder FAQ and Valve FAQ
Both cylinders are Nitrox Ready with left and right DGX Premium Valves that are satin finish chrome plated brass with standard 200-Bar DIN (G 5/8" BSP) outlet. We ship your cylinders with the valves installed and straps assembled (domestic ground US only, all others we will ship cylinder and valve uninstalled.) The cylinders have a current month Visual Inspection Sticker, thus no re-inspection is necessary before filling. The sets also include valve dust plugs.
The package options include your choice of cord or webbing based stage strap kits, as well as the Dive Rite Sidemount Strap Kits which are perfect for sidemounting. Using the Dive Rite low-profile cam strap, instead of a hose clamp, enables the entire assembly to be quickly installed, removed, repositioned or adjusted without need for any tools. The ability to easily reposition and adjust the strap, even while you are in-water, is particularly attractive for fine tuning sidemount configurations. The Dive Rite Sidemount Strap Kit includes all the items needed to configure sidemount bottle using a wide Deluxe Hose Retainer, EPDM Hose Retainer, a low profile cam strap, and a neck clip choker for sidemount.

Customer Reviews
Valves for Sidemount
Typically, sidemount divers use cylinders with a matched pair of left and right hand DIN valves together with a pair of DIN regulators also configured for the left and right side (yoke style fittings are ill-advised sidemount applications.) The cylinders are then attached to the sidemount diver using their preference for bungee strap styles. If you prefer to cradle your valve with a traditional style bungee strap you may prefer our Modular L/R valves that offers the additional post extending out of each side. We also offer Modular Long Neck L/R valves that have a little bit more space just above the base so that you can take a wrap with your bungee. We feel the ring style bungees are best mated with our Pro L/R valves as they do not require your bungee to wrap around or loop onto the valve. Having valves and regulators with specific orientations means you must pay close attention to left and right whenever the straps and regulators are rigged to the cylinders.
