Rite's exposure protection accessories serve as essential and
convenient components for use in conjunction with your 905 drysuit.
Dry Gloves are designed to be free of alignment issues, exposed
o-rings and lubricant for ease in outfitting. Gaiters are designed to
keep air movement to a minimum, therefore decreasing drag and buoyancy
issues. Each product is made with durable materials to offer years of
reliable protection in coldwater environments.

Hunter
--
Since 1989, Gates Rubber Co. Ltd. manufactured and distributed the
Gates range of drysuits and accessories. It can claim many
innovations, such as the unique stretch PRO-VSN, and the market
leading PRO-HRM for contaminated
water. In September 2002 a change of ownership brought a
replacement of Gates logos with a new Hunter logo. Same drysuit
quality and factory, new Hunter name and logo.

Poseidon was
started in the late 50’s by legendary diving pioneer Ingvar Elfström.
Developing their products in cold Scandinavian waters has made them
among the toughest you can dive. All Poseidon drysuits are made from high quality neoprene rubber, a material they were the first ones to use in a drysuit. The neoprene has a fantastic thermal insulation ability and high strength. In their own factory they stitch the suits both on the inside and outside so the seams are very strong and exact. Every suit is checked and all material used is exposed to tests that corresponds to 20 years of use. Poseidon also pressure tests every suit in water so that they can assure you that the suit is 100% waterproof.

Protective Products one of the world’s leading producers of
protective clothing and products. They develop and manufacture
chemical protective suits, dry diving suits (under the Viking drysuits
brand name), inflatable shelters and a wide range of industrial
products. Safety has always been the most important issue at
Trelleborg Protective Products when designing and producing the Viking
