Education & Resources

Knowledge from a working-diver manufacturer.

The same information we use in the shop, shared with the divers and technicians who run these helmets. Instructional videos for each of these subjects are in production.

Helmet Maintenance

Care and servicing routines that keep a Gladiator working: regulator care, faceplate and neckdam upkeep, head cushion and comms, and the habits that extend the service life of a bronze shell.

Minor Helmet Repairs

Bronze can be repaired. Field-level fixes for hardware, valving, seals, and fittings: the everyday repairs that keep a helmet in the water instead of on the shelf.

Technical & Instructional Information

Specifications, servicing references, and instructional material for the Gladiator line and the Poseidon Xstream regulator that it is built around.

Instructional videos coming soon.

We are producing videos covering helmet maintenance, minor helmet repairs, and technical and instructional information. Check back, or call us with a technical question in the meantime.
