Bought a lightly used 32# wing here on Scubaboard for a friend of mine. Tried it out and it had a pinch flat. I decided to fix the pinch rather than buy a new bladder. Bought some 3m Marine 5200, worked great sealing the pinch flat.
Tried it again, this time, the wing leaked all around the top seal, many tiny bubbles. Now this wing did not have a lot of dives on it so that really seemed weird and worrisome.
Bought a new bladder, shipped second day air, Got it, went to install it in the wing and - crap! the threads on this bladder are coarse not fine. WHAT!! Tried every part I have from a Zeagle wing to my DSS wings. Nothing fits, can't even find the part online.
So now I have had this wing for 3 months and not one dive on it yet.
I have had three DSS wings, even traded one online. shipped it and traveled with it. NEVER had a problem. Won't be buying any Edge products again.
Maybe someone can tell me where to find the coarse thread parts though so I may yet get some use out of this one.
