Rebreather World - View Single Post - DrMike OC 2nd p-port adapters for Drager

Mike, Jakub, or anyone with experience with these:

I ordered a few of the 'DrMike' OC 2nd stage adapters from Golem for my Apeks ATX50 2nds. One will be permanately mounted on the mask for nasal sanity breaths, and the other will be on my deep bailout bottle. I'll order more in the future.

The question is this:

The Apeks has a lip where the mouthpiece attaches. The p-port adapter is Delrin or the like and won't accept this lip. I didn't get any instructions; so, does the lip get filed off or did I get the wrong pieces? How is the fit? I'm assuming you need some kind of silicone to ensure water tightness since there is no o-ring??

Any help is much obliged.

Thanks,

Eric
