Claymore, why are you not interested in the new Aqualung style lock? My son and I have had excellent luck with the ones on our Axiom BCDs.

I have had issues with them being difficult to unlatch if adjusted to to tight and nipping at your fingers when opening and closing. I change tank sizes often enough that I need cam bands that easily and quickly adjust. I also DM and with the new skill of resecuring a loose tank they are not very practicle to use with students for this skill.It is just a matter of what works best for me.Claymore, why are you not interested in the new Aqualung style lock?

What Rubber Strap?(the rubber strap fixes that)
I am looking at the Highland Tank Straps w/Quick Release Cam Buckle (https://www.divegearexpress.com/highland-tank-straps-quick-release-w-cam-buckle-pair) and the DGX TANK STRAP, STANDARD WITH S/S CAM BUCKLE (https://www.divegearexpress.com/dgx-tank-strap-standard-with-s-s-cam-buckle), I am not looking at the ScubaPro or the new Aqualung style buckles.
... With Akimbo's modification they are as good as I've used...
I am looking for a set of tank straps with Stainless Steel cam buckles. I broke one of my plastic cam buckles the other day, I like very tight straps, and thought it is time to go to Stainless for buckles.

Anybody using either style with good/bad results. Any other S/S cam buckles to look at that are available in the US that to look at that are reasonably priced.
Thanks for any information.
