Apeks Back-Up Plugs for First Stage

[SM Diver]

Anyone know where I can order spare HP and LP back-up plugs/bolts for my ATX200 first stage? Thanks!

I was able to get mine from my LDS, they are not only a dealer for Apex, but also service and repair. I would think any Apex dealer could order them for you. Check ebay, I've seen them for sale from time to time.

I've got a bunch of port plugs and I expect most LDS have a rather large bin full of them that must be emptied out frequently... every reg set they sell will yield a few as the octopus, inflator hose(s) and SPG are added.

If you can't find someone to give you some free PM me.

If you're specifically after the 1/2" plugs, which don't come with the first stages when you buy them (typically there is already an Apeks hose in that port), the 1/2" ones being sold on eBay work fine. I couldn't find them in any LDS - they often only have the 3/8" and 7/16" plugs from regs they've worked on and sold.

Buy a couple, use one, keep the rest in your save-a-dive kit.

Yep, putting together my save-a-dive. Someone was nice enough to PM me and offer to send a couple.

Thanks for the offer, UP, but looks like I'm hooked-up. Don't know how you guys dive in cold water year round. I dove in 55 degree water a week ago out in the Gulf and thought I was going to die. Went out and bought a Henderson Gold Core 7/5 semi. Much better now. Lived in Florida my whole life and never experienced a Winter like this. It was 19 degrees when I woke up the other day.
