Apeks WTX D-18 Single Cylinder Wings – BCD accessory
Single cylinder wings, also known as donuts, are oval-shaped air cells designed to remain unattached from a harness. Though originally crafted for technical diving, they’ve gained immense popularity among recreational divers. Their continuous loop design provides excellent stability underwater by preventing air from shifting abruptly from side to side, and their streamlined shape makes them ideal for efficient movement in the water.
Apeks single cylinder wings are intelligently designed to allow the cylinder to sit deep within the wing for secure placement. They pair perfectly with the Apeks WTX collection of top-quality harnesses, plates, and accessories. Versatile and adaptable, these wings can be configured to suit various diving styles. Like the rest of the WTX collection, Apeks single cylinder wings are made from premium materials, designed in-house, and built to withstand the rigors of any dive.
