A diving suitIt is made of foam rubber, and the best ones are chloroprene rubber, which is sandwich shaped and wrapped with nylon or Lycra cloth. Therefore, the insulation effect of diving suits mainly depends on foam rubber, and the insulation effect of diving suits made from both fabrics is the same. The comfort of being close to the body depends on nylon or Lycra watch fabric.
Foam rubber description:
Foam rubber, as the main functional layer for keeping warm, sun and abrasion resistant diving suits, directly determines the quality, effectiveness and service life of diving suits. The different thicknesses and stitching modes determine the suitable environment for diving suits.
Chloroprene rubber has high tensile strength, elongation, reversible crystallinity, and good adhesion. Resistant to aging and heat. Excellent oil resistance and chemical corrosion resistance. It is a good material for diving suits.
In addition to the above functions, foam rubber can also provide a certain degree of buoyancy, which is helpful for diving/snorkeling.
Material Description of Surface Cloth
1. The difference between nylon and Lycra: On their surface fabrics, one is nylon fabric and the other is Lycra fabric. Laikabu has a higher number of threads per unit area and a denser knitting, making it more wear-resistant. In addition, Lycra fabric has better elasticity, so diving suits made of Lycra fabric are less likely to deform.
2. The lifespan of the fabric: The lifespan of a Lycopo diving suit is longer than that of a nylon diving suit.
3. The prices of two types of fabrics: Nylon fabric has a place in the market mainly because of its relatively low price. Relatively speaking, the price of Lycra fabric is relatively high.
4. Non functional selection: Due to the wide range of colors available for Lycra fabric on the market, if you want your diving suit to shine brightly in water, Lycra fabric will be a good choice.
A diving suit can not only keep you warm, but also protect you from scratches, stabs, abrasions, and other injuries caused by coral reefs. Generally speaking, there are three basic styles that are popular on the market, namely
1. Jellyfish suit (tight fitting suit)
2. Wet diving suit
3. Dry diving suit.
