Argon Tank Mounting

[Diver Mike]

OK, I have a 19cu Ft Pony (NO discussions about ponies, please) and a 6 cu ft Argon bottle.

I mount the pony with a quick draw bracket. Now I am using another system to mount the argon alongside the main tank (90 cu ft AL).

I have heard that there is a belt style mounting system for these small Argon bottles but have not found any information about them..

Any suggestions?

Thanks...

Are you using a bp&w or a jacket bc?

Here is a better way to go IMO.

Just make sure the bungie on the valve is snug enough that the bottle won't come loose and fall to the depths when the rig is clipped to a tag line from the boat........

If you move to doubles, placing the Argon bottle bungied below the isolator valve works great. I have seen it used many times off the East Coast!!!

Just my 2 cents!

Thanks everyone.

Uncle Pug your solution looks good and I will try and rig that for this weekend at Alki.

The reason for the question about the belt mount is that I am moving to a KISS CCR on a Custom Divers W&B/P and was trying to streamline that whole deal someway.

I think I am stuck with RB unit, Bailout tank and argon, if I want to stay warm and dry and breath etc.
