Product Description

OCEANIC ALPHA 8 OCTOPUS W HI VIZ YELLOW MAXFLEX HOSE

The Oceanic Alpha 8 Octopus with Hose (SKU: 40-3540) is a dependable, lightweight downstream demand valve second stage designed as an alternate air source (safe second) for recreational diving.

Engineered for simple operation and low maintenance, the Alpha 8 provides smooth breathing performance in emergency air-sharing situations.

Professional performance, entry-level price.

If you believe that you shouldn't have to sacrifice performance for price, the Alpha 8 Octo is for you.

The Alpha 8 Octo is the top-performing regulator in its class, and one of the most affordably priced regulators you can buy.

The Alpha 8's super sturdy ABS/polycarbonate housing weighs just 6 oz. (170 g) and measures 2.9" (7 4 cm) in diameter. The lightweight design and anatomical mouthpiece translate into a second stage that won't cause jaw fatigue. The Alpha 8 Second Stage is a dependable downstream demand valve design. The Alpha 8 can be used with air or Nitrox mixtures up to 40% right out-of-the-box.

Reliable Downstream Valve Design: Uses a traditional demand valve mechanism that opens in the direction of airflow, offering stable performance and safety.

High-Visibility Yellow Accent: Features a bright yellow purge cover and yellow accent rings for instant identification by a buddy in an out-of-air emergency.

Integrated Venturi Vane: Factory-set Pre-Dive / Dive Venturi control helps prevent unwanted surface free-flows caused by entry impact or surface current.

Orthodontic Silicone Mouthpiece: Outfitted with an ergonomically shaped high-grade silicone mouthpiece designed to minimize jaw fatigue.

High-Visibility Yellow MaxFlex Hose: Includes a flexible, lightweight 36-inch yellow low-pressure hose that provides high visibility and easy routing to an alternate diver.

Compact & Durable Housing: Constructed from impact-resistant ABS/Polycarbonate composite materials to withstand rough boat handling and deck use.
