The Scubapro MK-2 is a flow-by, unbalanced piston first stage created and sold by Scubapro, Inc. starting in 1963. It contains one high pressure port and three low pressure ports. Its maximum flow rate is 92cfm. After continuous production and product updates, the MK-2 is still in production today as the MK-2 plus EVO.

It's Alive!!!

Apparently, you can't edit posts beyond a certain age. At some point, I am going to have to ask a mod for a clean-up but for now, please bear with me.

Does anyone have any deep technical knowledge such as the flow rate of the MK-2?
 
Rusty the HP seats on a MK-2 can be flipped and used again, If you need new ones I believe you can get the trident ones from VDH or NESS.
