Apeks MTX-R Regulator Stage 3 Set
*Stage 3 sets come with 1st stage, 2nd stage and octo*
The MTX-R is based on the MTX, a regulator that was developed in accordance with the United States Navy Experimental Dive Unit extreme cold water test. Innovations in design mean that the MTX-R regulator performs in almost freezing water at a depth of over 60 metres, something that very few other regulators on the consumer market can boast.
The MTX-R Octo is built to the same standards as the MTX-R but in a bright yellow colour to be easily seen when needed. Innovations in design mean that the MTX-R regulator performs in almost freezing water at a depth of over 60 metres, something that very few other regulators on the consumer market can boast. It is a simple to use octo with no dive adjustment controls and a reduced chance of free flow.
With an innovative first stage design that helps to prevent ice build up around the diaphragm, the MTX-R is reliable, rugged and expedition ready.
