Quality product. Nice and small to fit any BCD pocket.
It looks like you're visiting us from outside United Kingdom
The Apeks LifeLine Spools are inspired by technical diving made from tough but light materials and brightly coloured for easy reference and use. All designed and manufactured in the UK by British divers for British divers.
Andonised Aluminium Body is light, tough and corrosion resistant; machined from a single piece of aircraft grade Aluminium so there are no weak joins or edges. Large holes on either side of the spools allow the line to be locked off with the supplied bolt snap.
Easy Grip Flared Spool design has ridged edges for better control and grip during use and the flared sides make winding in neat and easy. The unique flare makes for easier use with gloves with a larger diameter centre hole big enough for a gloved finger to fit through. Each spool is purposely not over-wound so you can add extra line if desired and allows for untidy winding after multiple uses.
Bright Colour Coding makes it easy to know which reel you are dealing with and exactly how long each line is without the need for markings.
Edelrid and Dyneema Lines are manufactured by climbing rope and marine line manufacturers for the best quality, abrasion resistant, lightweight and high-performance lines. Bright orange main line is made by Edelrid who make sport climbing equipment so you can trust your main line with usual wear and tear from laying guidelines and is nice and bright for improved visibility in low light conditions. The main line is connected to the leader by a marine grade brass swivel to eliminate twisting. The leader is made from Dyneema which has a range of applications from commercial ropes and lines to armour on military vehicles so it is double tough. Contrasting bright yellow colour is easy to differentiate from the main line and easy to see in low light conditions.
Line Loops Are Stitched instead of simply tied for increased strength with easy-release pull tabs for easy use with gloves.
The Green Reel is your all-rounder with a sensible 30 meter line which can be used for dSMB deployment or laying a guide line for wreck or cave penetration. Slimmer than both the Purple and Blue the Green is a nice low profile spool.
Dimensions: 41 x 85mm (excluding boltsnap)

Beautiful reel - really nice to use, it feels like no expense has been spared to make it. Great with dry gloves (best spool I''ve used with dry gloves).

As you would axpect from Apex a great quality spool and line. The only criticism is that the spool is a little on the large side.

These reels are the best but they are expensive, if you use a reel on every dive you will not get too concerned about the extra costs because you will love it. Looks great. Feels good, very tactile. Color coded for line length. Swivel on end to prevent tangles great idea. Strong line bright color.
