AP Valves - Buddy SMBC with Inflation Cylinder

AP Valves - Buddy SMBC with Inflation Cylinder is a real gem of a product, the AP SMBCi - self-sealing SMB with inflation cylinder has all the features and advantages of the AP SMBC together with an independent inflation mini-cylinder (0.1 litre 232 bar available with either DIN or Int A-clamp fittings). This not only makes deployment a very simple procedure but it allows you to conserve expensive mixed gases for what they are intended rather than SMB inflation.

The mini-cylinder is easily replenished by decanting from a standard air cylinder. It folds neatly away inside the rolled-up SMB and the SMBCi can then be stowed in a pocket, attached to an external D ring or wrapped in the dedicated SMB velcro pouch at the rear left of the AP Commando and Commando Explorer.

One key advantage over similar systems is that the SMBCi can still be inflated via the baffle with a second stage in the event that you have forgotten to fill the mini-cylinder.

At the surface, the SMBCi is pulled upright by tension on the line and clearly marks the diver's position. The baffle prevents air spillage and the buoy remains inflated making it easy for the surface crew to track the diver or for the diver to hold aloft and wave if separated from the boat.

A message slate, ID marker or reflector can be tied to the top eyelet.

Dimensions: 1.4m long x 20cm wide

The new AP Diving SMBCi is available with either DIN or International A-clamp fittings on the Cylinder

SMB & Lifting Bags

At Dive Rutland we treat surface marker buoys as core safety equipment, not optional extras. The range covers compact delayed SMBs that stow in a pocket, larger high-visibility markers for open water and poor visibility, and lifting bags for controlled recovery work. Everything here is chosen by divers who use this kit themselves, for reliability and real-world performance rather than how it reads on paper.
