Backplate Slot Spacing

[ams511]

I was going through my backplate collection and decided to measure the spacing between the slots of the backplate. I measured from the bottom on the top slot to the top of the bottom slot. Hopefully this information will be helpful for those trying to match up wings and plates. Maybe we can add more plates.

Halcyon Stainless Steel 3 1/4"
Light Monkey Aluminum - NO SLOTS - MUST USE STA
Hog Aluminum 5"
Mares soft plate 5 1/2"
Hollis Stainless Steel 6"
Dive Rite cutout plate 5 1/2"
Apeks Stainless Steel 5 1/2"
Abyss (TDL) Stainless Steel 5 1/2
DSS Kydex 4"
Storm Aluminum 5"

I didn't measure the slot length because they all looked to be around 2" or so. None of the plates have overly long slots.

Halcyon CF Slots are 3 1/4" apart and 2 1/8" opening, TA holes 11" o/c

Zeagle stainless steel 4 7/8" the slots are 2 1/8" long

There is a slot at the bottom for doubles so you don't need to be exactly 11".
