Apeks WTX Stainless Steel or Aluminum Back Plates

The backbone of any system - this cleverly designed back plate can be used with the webbed harness or inserted into the WTX Harness. Textured, electro-plate finish and a laser-etched Apeks logo round out the look of the plate.

• 4 each upper and lower slots accommodate nylon cylinder bands so a single cylinder can be strapped directly to the plate. Having a series of 4 slots provides lateral stability of the cylinder that traditional 2 slot plates cannot.

• 3 holes at the top of the plate offer a range of height adjustments for the buoyancy cells and the cylinders. In addition, lower center slot allows for lower band bolts that are misaligned.

• 2” wide crotch strap slot.

• Upper and lower perimeter holes along either side and holes along the bottom allow for the mounting of accessories.
