OMS P-Weight Coated (4kg) - The Foundation for Perfect Trim and Stability

Achieve unparalleled trim and stability on every dive with the OMS P-Weight Coated. Specifically engineered for divers using a backplate and wing system, this 4kg weight is the ultimate solution for refining your buoyancy and achieving a perfect, horizontal position in the water. It seamlessly integrates into your gear, providing a fixed ballast that lowers your center of gravity and enhances in-water control, moving essential weight off a traditional weights belt and onto your core for a more balanced and streamlined profile.

The unique ´P´ shape of this weight is custom-designed to fit snugly and securely within the V-shaped channel of your diving backplate. This intelligent placement is fundamental to improving your underwater posture. By concentrating mass along your spine and below your lungs, the P-Weight counteracts the natural buoyancy of your upper body, making it significantly easier to maintain a streamlined profile with minimal effort. This superior weight distribution leads to reduced drag, improved gas consumption, and a more comfortable and efficient diving experience, whether you´re exploring a wreck or navigating a delicate reef.

Protect your valuable equipment with the robust, non-abrasive black coating. This thick, durable layer encases the weight, preventing it from scratching or damaging your aluminum or stainless steel backplate. It also safeguards your exposure suit—be it a wetsuit or drysuit—from abrasion and wear that can occur with uncoated weights. Furthermore, the smooth, coated surface is kinder to boat decks and other surfaces, preventing unsightly marks and making it a considerate choice for any diving environment. This protective feature ensures the longevity of both the weight and your surrounding gear.
