Home / Dive Shop /Regulators / Tek3 Apeks Regulator Set
Two brands of regulators have dominated technical diving worldwide, these two styles being Scubapro and Apeks.
Both regs perform exceptionally well, with the choice often coming down to personal preference. However, one slight advantage Scubapro had was their clean hose routing on twin cylinders.
Apeks responded with their 5th port adaptor which allows the DST first stage to be routed like the above mentioned competitor and they also decide to produce a regulator that is clearly designed for a twin set diver. They produced the Tek3 set.
The Tek3 set consists of 2 first stages with all their ports facing down, so hose routing is clean and efficient, also these stages are specific for right and left.
Apeks then included 2 XTX50 2nd stages with a 2m and a standard hose allowing the diver to configure their gear in the now standard way of primary reg on a long hose with the back up reg positioned under the chin.
They even included an Apeks branded necklace for this purpose.
The performance of the Apeks reg has long been recorded, so I don’t need to tell you how amazing they are to breathe.
The new Tek 3 set is just a great product for those wanting the best. They look tidy, streamlined and without fuss.
As with all performance Apeks regs, they share the same service kits with the rest of the range, which means if the technical diver is heading away on an expedition, with their Tek3′s as back gas, and a couple of other Apeks regs for deco, they can take just one first stage service kit, one second stage kit and they have every spare part they would need.
(The servicing of any life support system should only be carried out by a qualified technician)
We have stocked the Tek 3′s for a couple of years now.
We have a set on display on our display twinsets so you can see for yourselves what we like so much about them.
