Highland HL802 Stainless Steel Single Tank Adapter

By Highland / XS Scuba | SKU: HL802 | 316 Marine-Grade Stainless Steel

Upgrade the stability and safety of your single-cylinder rig with the Highland HL802 Stainless Steel Single Tank Adapter (STA). Designed to fit virtually any standard backplate and wing system on the market, this adapter locks your single tank securely in place while preventing cylinder roll underwater.

While soft-style mounting using simple book screws (Chicago screws) can leave room for tank wobble or put excess stress on wing fabric, an STA creates a rigid, structural bridge between your backplate, wing, and cylinder. The solid stainless steel spine clamps the wing tightly against the plate, protecting wing grommets and dramatically increasing overall stability.

Superior Security vs. Book Screws

Relying solely on book screws to hold a wing to a backplate forces the tank straps to do all the work, which can lead to shifting or tank rotation during a dive. The Highland HL802 STA provides a solid steel channel that traps the cylinder, evenly distributes mounting stress, and adds beneficial negative ballast for cold-water trim.

Key Performance Features

  • 316 Marine-Grade Stainless Steel: Precision-stamped, corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction engineered to withstand demanding saltwater conditions.
  • Universal 11" Hole Spacing: Features industry-standard 11-inch center-to-center mounting holes to fit Halcyon, Apeks, Hollis, and other technical backplates.
  • Eliminates Tank Roll: Specially contoured channel holds 7.25-inch and 8-inch cylinders tightly aligned with your spine.
  • Protects Wing Grommets: Spreads cylinder clamping pressure evenly across the adapter surface rather than concentrating force on soft wing fabric or book screws.
  • Universal 2" Cam Band Slots: Includes dual cutouts to accept any standard 2-inch (50 mm) tank cam straps.
