Components in both the 1st and 2nd stages are made from reinforced material specifically developed for the manufacture of technical components. It is strong, not affected by water or extreme ranges of temperature, has good dimensional stability, an excellent resistance to chemicals and does not deform. The perfect material for regulator parts. This Hi-Tech material is also used in “under-bonnet” components at the cutting edge of the motor industry due to its proven strength and resilience actually replacing many steel and brass parts.

The 1st stage has an ingenious design which comprises a strong forged solid brass skeletal body surrounded with the perfect jacket material. Due to exceptional engineering it is built to withstand the high pressures of compressed gas and to cope with the tough rigours of diving. Flight offers impact protection and good abrasion resistance meaning there is a reduced chance of accidental damage.
