Twinset Cambands

Superb twinset camming system - holds cylinders with absolute security

The AP webbing camband system has proven itself for over 30 years to be the superior system available in terms of ease of use, adjustability and cylinder security

NO TOOLS REQUIRED - simple to change over from the single camband that comes as standard with AP (BUDDY) BCDs to a twinset camband upgrade. Adjust & fasten the camband entirely by hand

NO NEED TO WET THE BANDS - other brand systems require the bands to be wet before you tighten them because their webbing expands when wet and would therefore loosen during the dive. AP cambands are designed with non-hygroscopic webbing and can be adjusted and tightened completely dry with the confidence of superior cylinder grip throughout the dive

NO CYLINDER BOOT OR MANIFOLD REQUIRED - the twin cylinders are held in place by the separation blocks and do not require either a twin cylinder boot or a manifold. It is the diver's choice whether they want to use a manifold, but the AP system offers the option of having a first stage on each cylinder. Held by bands at top and bottom, the twinset is held as rigidly in position as any metal-band/twinboot/manifold system

The BK15-17 series Twinset Kits are designed to be used with any AP backplate (pre or post 2007)

Available in 3 sizes:

BK15 - 5.5"/140mm diam cylinders
BK16 - 7"/178mm diam cylinders
BK17 - 8"/203mm diam cylinders

It is advisable you measure your cylinders but typically:

5 and 7 litre cylinders = 5.5" diam
10 and 12 litre cylinders = 7" diam
12 litre dumpy and 15 litre cylinders = 8" diam

There is leeway in the webbing band length to cater for unusual cylinder sizes

To convert back to a single cylinder camband when required is simply a question of re-threading the backpack, a job that requires no tools to complete and takes only a few minutes
