Shearwater Perdix and Petrel Strap Kit

Quick answer: The Shearwater Perdix and Petrel Strap Kit is a replacement strap kit for Shearwater's Perdix and Petrel dive computers.

Why keep a spare strap kit

Straps are the part of a dive computer that takes the most abuse. They get stretched over wetsuit sleeves, yanked on boat ladders and baked in the sun on the dive deck. A worn or cracked strap is how computers end up on the bottom. Having a strap kit in your save-a-dive box means a broken strap doesn't end your dive day, and replacing an old strap at home is cheap insurance for an expensive computer.

Getting the fit right

For bigger divers, strap fit matters as much as the computer itself. A strap that's stretched to its limit is under more stress and more likely to fail. If your current strap barely closes over your exposure suit, a fresh kit is a good time to check whether you need more length. Shearwater also offers longer strap options, so compare them before you buy if you dive a thick wetsuit or drysuit.

Before ordering

Check the retailer's product details to confirm what's included in the kit and that it matches your Perdix or Petrel model. Compare the strap length to what you need over your usual exposure suit.

FGSS take: A strap costs far less than the computer it's holding. Replace it before it fails.
