Product Description

OTS Guardian M6 Inner Clamp Screw Replacement

The OTS Guardian M6 Inner Clamp Screw (SKU: 244099-000 / OTS-244099-000) is an essential OEM replacement hardware component for the Ocean Technology Systems (OTS) Guardian Full Face Mask (FFM).

This precision screw secures the inner clamping ring assembly that holds the internal silicone oral-nasal pocket, visor seal, and frame rigid.

It keeps the structural components inside the breathing chamber properly aligned and maintains a 100% watertight seal.

Bottom Line: The OTS Guardian M6 Inner Clamp Screw (244099-000) is a genuine factory replacement fastener used to secure components of the Guardian Full Face Mask's inner clamp assembly.
 
Although inexpensive and often overlooked, it is important for maintaining the mask's structural integrity and proper assembly.

This screw secures the mask's internal clamp components that help retain and stabilize critical mask elements, including the interior vent and visor clamping structure. The part is identified as M6 in the official Guardian Full Face Mask maintenance schematic.

Although small, the Inner Clamp Screw performs an important structural role by maintaining the integrity of the mask assembly and ensuring that connected components remain properly aligned under diving conditions.

Key Advantages & Operational Role

  • Precision Factory Fit: Machined to exact OEM tolerances to ensure smooth insertion into the inner clamp posts without cross-threading.

  • Corrosion Resistance: High-grade 316 stainless steel construction resists rust and seizing caused by constant exposure to saltwater and high-humidity exhaled air.

  • Structural Reliability: Holds the inner oral-nasal pocket firmly against the outer housing, preventing internal air bypass or water intrusion during inhalation cycles.

Check Adjacent Components

Whenever replacing the M6 screw, inspect nearby parts:

  • M5 Interior Vent Clamp
  • M9 Inner Clamp Ring
  • M4 Visor

for wear or damage.

Tips & Tricks for Installation & Maintenance

Alignment Before Tightening

  • When servicing or replacing the inner clamp screw, make sure the silicone oral-nasal skirt is completely seated in its retention track around the internal port.

  • Align the inner clamp ring evenly over the skirt lip before threading the screw in to avoid pinching or tearing the silicone seal.

Hand-Thread First & Proper Torque

  • Always start threading the M6 screw by hand to verify proper thread engagement before using tools.

  • Use the correct size driver or hex bit to snug the screw down until firm. Do not over-torque, as excessive pressure can crack or warp the surrounding polymer frame components.

Inspecting O-Rings & Gaskets

  • Whenever the inner clamp assembly is disassembled, inspect any associated sealing gaskets or O-rings for grit, hair, or deformation. Clean and lightly lubricate rubber seals with oxygen-compatible silicone grease if required by the OTS service manual.

Post-Dive Care & Rinse

  • Thoroughly soak the entire mask in warm, fresh water post-dive. Pay special attention to rinsing around the internal clamp screw pockets to wash away salt deposits that could lock the threads over time.
