Description

The Dive Rite Stainless Steel XT Lite Backplate is a modern evolution of the original design from 1984. Made from 14 gauge 316L stainless steel, the lightweight plate features a unique shape that contours the diver’s back for comfort. Rounded corners prevent digging into exposure suits while internal cutouts reduce weight without compromising support for double cylinder configurations. CNC deburring ensures smooth edges that won’t damage harness webbing, and the mirror finish adds a touch of style to performance.

With 11″ on-center mounting holes, adjustable upper bolt positions, and slots for cam straps, this backplate is versatile for various diving setups. Additional holes accommodate lights, stage bottles, and other accessories, while harness webbing slots cater to different harness styles. Weighing only 2.61 lbs, this stainless steel plate is perfect for divers who prefer lighter gear.
