Need an Aqualung Legend Bubble Deflector

[Mr_D]

Hi
The Bubble Deflector is broken on my Aqualung Legend LX 2nd Stage and have no idea where to start to locate a replacement part. Information I have is below with pictures attached.

Drawing #129080
BP Legend LX
27/08/03

Bubble Deflector
Find #28
No Piece 129186
Deflecteur Marque
Marked Exhaust Tee

Option #1 is to locate a new or used replacement part.
Option #2 is to maybe repair this using epoxy or JB Weld

I really don't want to replace this 2nd Stage as it's very expensive. Thanks for any help you can provide.

If it is plastic I wouldn't use epoxy or JB weld, depending on the plastic I would use a plastic specific CA glue like Loctite 422 with a surface activator like Loctite® Primer 7701. I have also had insanely good performance with E6000 on plastic repairs if you can't find a supplier for the plastic specific CA.

If it is metal JB weld marine should hold it fine.

you need to contact an aqualung dealer, they don't have anyone monitoring this forum anymore

The current part number and correct nomenclature for what you are looking for is:
RG911429 - Exhaust Cover (for Aqualung Legend/Legend LX Series 2002-2011)

The part is availavble in limited quantity for 7.26 Euros at the following website:

Thanks Zef, looks like not available at that link anymore. Updated part number helps.

I have reached out to Aqualung for help on this as well.

Good luck. Hopefully one of the 7 people left in Aqua Lung America will get back to you.

Joking aside, I doubt they'll sell it to a non-repair tech/non-service center individual. If you're not an AL repair tech, your best bet is to take it to an authorized service center or send it to Airtech Scuba Services. In my experience they have very strong AL connections due to their volume. Home - Airtech Scuba Services

Great reg by the way. I own 2 of them plus a newer AL Legend Elite.

Good luck!

I have also reached out to a friend of mine to see if he can 3D print this part.

Thanks Diving Papaw, I sent an email to Airtech Scuba Services yesterday as well.

I dropped this into the local dive shop for an annual (been 10 years) and they broke the part removing it, ok this is a 20 year old regulator so I get it. What I don't get is yes they completed the annual but just handed me the broken part with no additional information on if the part was available or if they even tried to order it. Not impressed.

Cyanoacrylate glues a lot of things and is very cheap

Airtech Scuba Services just replied back, they have the parts and can repair this.
