Weight Placement

Gary · 17th May 2006, 12:48

Hi,

I expect this has been covered before so please forgive me but I was unable to locate the answer I required. I currently use SS bands to keep my weights banded to my cylinders. My local shop has no issue refilling with weights attached however not all will allow this. Does anyone have any suggestions for alternative methods of installing the weights rather than the bands?

Speak to Alex at Custom Divers +44 (0)1737 773000
They are producing MEG weights to fit to the back of their plates. Might be an option...

It would help to know what unit you use....... the Inspiration has a weight pocket provided on the top of the unit, and i have fastened mine to the travel frame using eletrical ties.
