Product Information
The DiveCatalog.com Dive Retractor is a BCD mounted accessory retractor that keeps a gauge, compass, light or slate clipped close to the body and off the reef. It uses a rebounding nylon retraction line that extends when you need the item and recoils automatically when you let go, and it is offered in a 50 cm (19.7 in) or 300 cm (118.1 in) line length with a black housing.
Who it is for
It suits divers who carry small accessories and want them controlled rather than dangling. Open water divers use the shorter line for a gauge, console or compass kept tight to the harness. The longer line suits a light or slate you want to extend away from the body; it has various applicative uses. It is easily attachable to a BCD and all other dive gear.
Key details
- Rebounding style retraction with a nylon line, so the accessory returns on its own between uses.
- Two line lengths: 50 cm (19.7 in) and 300 cm (118.1 in).
- Black durable housing with an attachment point for clipping to a BCD or harness.
- Easily attachable to a BCD and all other dive gear, with various applicative uses.
- Helps streamlining and protects both gear and reef by keeping accessories from dragging.
Compatibility and sizing
The retractor is intended for a BCD or harness attachment point and for other dive gear. Choose the 50 cm line when you want the item held snug against the BCD, and choose the 300 cm line when you need long reach, for example a light or slate you extend away from the body. Color is black in both lengths.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose the 50 cm or the 300 cm retractor?
Pick the length by how far the item needs to travel. The 50 cm (19.7 in) line holds a console, compass or small accessory snug against the BCD with short reach. The 300 cm (118.1 in) line gives long extension for a light or slate you want to move well away from the body, then it rebounds back on its own.
Does this retractor lock in the extended position?
No. Both lengths use the rebounding style nylon line, which recoils automatically when you release the accessory.
How does the retractor attach to a BCD?
The black housing has an attachment point so it can be clipped to a BCD or harness, and the manufacturer states the retractor is easily attachable to a BCD and all other dive gear. The manufacturer states it is easily attachable to a BCD and all other dive gear, so it works with a BCD or harness attachment point.
What accessories can I clip to it?
It is made for small, frequently used items: a submersible pressure gauge or console, a compass, a dive light, a slate or similar accessories. The goal is to keep them within reach while stopping them from dangling and dragging, which improves streamlining and protects both your gear and the reef.
