Inflator Hose Bungee

[debajo agua]

Hi All,

I am setting up a bp/wing for the first time and I want to loosely secure my inflator hose to my harness. I have seen this done with a small piece of bungee cord (about the size of a 1/2 dollar) but I have never seen one commercially for sale. I'd like to know if this is made or bought (if so, where can I buy one). What are other options for securing an inflator hose to a bp harness?

Thanks In Advance

I attach mine with a rubber ring (basically an oversized o-ring) about the size of a 2" d-ring. However, I have also seen the inflator hose secured to the left shoulder d-ring by a loop of shock cord tied off on the d-ring.

I use a short length of 3mm bungee cord, tied in a loop. Some of the dive shops in my area sell it.

An alternative would be latex tubing (possibly sourced from a medical supplies shop?)

I found my thin bungie (maybe it's 1/8" ?) at West Marine

i've also found it on ebay - you can get more than a lifetime supply for a few bucks - here's an example 50ft x 1 8" Black Shock Cord Bungee Made in USA | eBay

I just use a piece of inner tube around my power inflator hose to secure it since my corrogated hose is just 12", but this device my prove useful if you are dealing with a longer hose. Utility Keeper - 2 to a set - Northeast Scuba Supply

You can use inner tubing.......It's also used to secure back-up lights to the shoulder harness........
