Vintage Double Hose

Forgive me if this is covered elsewhere, as I've already attempted a search of this topic on the forum to no avail.

Does any one know of a source for double cylinder bands utilizing center to center measurements other than the current industry standard of 8.5"?

I have several steel 71.2s (6.9" diameter, I believe) and a few vintage manifolds that I wish to use. The manifolds are:

US Divers solid bar manifold with a CTC distance of 8.25"
Nemrod solid bar manifold with a CTC distance of 7.75"

Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.

I found mine on eBay. They are out there but you need to keep looking. If I see some I will let you know. Mike

Thanks, Mike!

There are some new ones for $125 on the bay now. Search 6.9 tank band. I paid around that for my used ones two years ago. Check them out.

Wow, those look really nice, I like 'em. Too bad the spread isn't right for me. These bands, unfortunately for me, are for an 8.5" center to center manifold. Mine are 7.75" and 8.25". Thanks for finding these. If you happen upon any others, please let me know.

I have both solid bar manifolds that you are working with. I modified a set to fit the nemrod spacing, I run them with the same backplate as I use for cave diving. I need a set of "donor" bands to cut up to do the same thing on the us divers manifold.

There are another set of bands on the "bay". They are starting at $30. Perhaps they may fit. Mike

Try here. Their 7.00 bands might work.

Cool, thanks for the leads guys!
