The MTX-R sidemount set is a super tough, rugged, high performance, go anywhere sidemount regulator configuration designed to meet the rigours of cold water and extreme sidemount diving. The MTX-R is highly reliable and also very easy to service out in the field which make it an ideal choice for the expedition and exploration diver.

First stages

• Over balanced for superior performance.
• Compact environmentally sealed diaphragm system completely eliminating the maintenance issues associated with silicone, oil or grease filling.
• Recommended for frequent use in cold or contaminated water.
• Environmental over-moulded endcap & diaphragm that helps prevent ice build-up that can cause first stage free flow in extreme circumstances. Also protects the first stage from impact damage.
• Double swivel hose for greater freedom of movement and comfort.
• 5 x 3/8' UNF medium pressure ports & 2 x 7/16' UNF high pressure ports.
• The 5th 3/8' UNF medium pressure port includes a protective bumper when not in use.
• Forged first stage body with heat exchanging ribs for maximum thermal performance.
• Angled HP ports for optimal hose routing and fitting transmitters.
• Forged rotating turret with medium pressure ports in a parallel direction for improved hose orientation.
• Tested for Octopus use - EN250A to 60 meters cold water.
