Trident Diving Equipment is recalling about 200 high-pressure scuba diving air hoses because the hose connecting the regulator to the tank's pressure gauge can leak. Trident has received one report of a hose leaking, though no injuries have been reported. These black, smooth rubber hoses were sold at scuba retailers nationwide between November 2011 and June 2012 for approximately $35. Consumers should immediately stop using these hoses and contact the company for a free replacement.
The hose can leak air while in use underwater, causing a loss of breathable air or an inaccurate pressure gauge reading, which poses a significant drowning hazard to the diver.
Consumers should immediately stop using the hoses and contact Trident Diving Equipment for a free replacement hose.
