The Atomic Aquatics BC1 BCD is designed to be the toughest performance BCD in the world. The BC1 redefines traditional BC design, with every detail and every feature rethought, and redesigned. The new Atomic BC1 is designed for the diver who wants the absolute BEST available. According to Atomic Aquatics: “We wanted a World-Class BC… so we designed one.”
Please note that the Atomic Aquatics BC1 does not come with an inflator hose. You can select between options for the Atomic SS1 inflator hose (As pictured) or a standard inflator hose.
Atomic Aquatics BC1 BCD Design
1. Exclusive Laminated & Coated Waterproof Fabric
The BC1 is designed with customer matte finish fabric, therefore looking and feeling completely unlike any other BCD. It’s made from strong double-laminated polyurethane coated fabric to keep it extra rugged and extra tough, and can actually repel water, cutting down your drying time between dive and days.
2. Ratcheting CAM-LOK Tank Bank
This Atomic Aquatics exclusive tank band design is the easiest tank band to use. It works similarly to ski and snowboard bindings, with a click lock mechanism. No need to wet a nylon webbing band, and weave it through a buckle.
3. Patented EZ-LOK Weight Release System
The EZ-LOK is an easy to use, integrated weight system. Each of the two weight pouches holds up to 10lbs of hard or soft weights. The pouches smoothly glide into pockets, and lock with a “SNAP”. They easy release with a firm tug on the handle.
4. Quilted Backpad & Adjustable Lumbar Pad
This BCD features a quilted backpad and adjustable lumbar pads, which enables a diver to adjust for their own most comfortable fit. The BC1’s carrying handle is also concealed behind the backpad.
5. Sand Resistant Pocket Zippers
The zippers on the BC1 are self-sealing, therefore they close completely to prevent any sand or debris from getting caught in zipper teeth.
6. Titanium-Coated Stainless Steel D-Rings
Features Custom 316 Stainless Steel D-Rings with Titanium PVD Coating. These are corrosion-resistant and strategically placed for convenience.
7. Trim Weight Pockets
The back weight pockets hold up to 5lbs each, for improved diver profile whilst in the water.
8. Non-Skid Tank Pad
Combined with the Ratcheting Tank Bank (2.), the rigid molded tank pad and backpack provide ultimate tank security! They feature CNC-Machined Stainless Steel Hardware that is moulded to the frame.
9. “Dry Glide” Exhaust Pull Dumps & Knobs
Features Low Friction, 316 Stainless Steel Pull dumps in two locations with patent pending anti-floating pull knob, with lengthened tails.
10. High-Peformance Inflation Choices
A truly elite world-class BC deserves high-performance inflation and safe second options. Dive with the innovatively designed Atomic SS1 available in Titanium or Stainless Steel. Or dive with a high performance pairing of the Atomic Octo and the Ai Power Inflator. Inflator/safe second options sold separately.
Atomic SS1
The Atomic SSI second stage octopus is the most sophisticated product of it’s type! It takes the concept of an inflation hose/octopus hybrid to a new level of convenience, reliability, and performance. The SS1 breathes just like a primary 2nd stage! Atomic placed equal importance when developing the SS1 on superior materials, reliability, and high performance natural breathing.
SS1 Performance & Durability
The SS1 deliverys high air flow rates to a diver with minimum effort, especially at depth. It’s stable and not prone to free-flow unnecessarily. It’s also not prone to leakage from the movement of water, or exiting/entering the water. The inflator/deflator is easy to operate, featuring soft surfaced buttons placed where they can be easily operated one-handed. It’s constructed of high quality materials not found in any other safe second stage on the market. The regulator is developed with 316 Stainless Steel and parts of Titanium.
SS1 Adaptability & Convenience
One of the most unique features of the SS1 is its adaptability to almost any BCD. Atomic have designed a set of adapters to fit virtually every popular BCD brand available (and many that are not). The adapters also include components for attaching the cable exhaust feature of your existing BCD (if applicable). The SS1 features a quick disconnect not only on the low-pressure hose, but the BCD hose as well. It can be quickly and easily detached from the BCD when required to be carried with your regulators and computer.
Features:
- Large oversized and ergonomically shaped buttons are easy to find for inflation. Easy to distinguish, and faced with soft rubber surfaces.
- Low-Profile Elliptical shaped body of the SS1 lies flat against the BCD helping to reduce drag.
- Atomic Patented seat saving orifice to help prevent leaks.
- Titanium Lever for high strength link to your air supply, that will never fail due to rust or corrosion.
- Integrated Purge cover allows purge of the regulator when depressed anywhere on the cover surface.
