Used Scubapro Classic with Balanced Inflator BCD

Sale price $798.99 Regular price $999.00

Product Information

The SCUBAPRO Classic BCD with BPI is a jacket-style buoyancy compensator built from 420 denier polyurethane-coated nylon with RF-welded seams, a stainless-steel Super Cinch tank band, and an integrated weight system. It is offered in sizes XS through XL and is equipped with a BPI (Balanced Power Inflator) for quick, controlled inflation and deflation.

Who it is for

This BCD suits recreational divers who want a classic jacket design with integrated weight pockets instead of a separate weight belt. The fully adjustable cummerbund and heavy-duty waist overstrap with a stainless-steel cam buckle let it compensate for exposure-suit compression, so it works well for divers who switch between a thin wetsuit and a thicker suit across seasons.

Key details

Published figures are size-specific: XS delivers 33.7 lb lift at 8.75 lb weight with 17.5 in length; M delivers 45 lb lift at 9.3 lb weight. Construction includes puncture-resistant 420 denier nylon with a polyurethane coating, RF-welded seams, a stainless-steel Super Cinch tank band, six D-rings (four large pre-bent stainless steel and two smaller stainless steel), four pockets (two Velcro-closure pockets with knife grommets and two zippered pockets), and two rear trim pockets for a balanced swimming position.

BCD Type: Jacket, unisex, sizes XS to XL
Inflator: BPI (Balanced Power Inflator); an Air2 alternate-air-source inflator version is also offered by SCUBAPRO
Backpack: Fast-drying, padded hard-pack
Weight system: Quick-release integrated pouches with squeeze buckles

Compatibility and sizing

Available in XS, S, M, L and XL; published lift differs by size, with XS at 33.7 lb and M at 45 lb. SCUBAPRO also offers this jacket with an Air2 inflator regulator in place of the standard BPI for divers who want a combined alternate air source.

DiveCatalog.com is an authorized SCUBAPRO dealer and a dive shop based in Irvine, California, serving divers since 2003. Call 888-701-4017 or chat with us if you need help confirming sizing, tank band fit, or BPI versus Air2 inflator compatibility before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should a scuba BCD fit?

A BCD should fit snugly enough that it does not ride up toward your ears when inflated, while still letting you breathe fully. Fasten the waist and cummerbund first, then adjust the shoulder straps so the tank sits close to your back and the shoulders cannot slide off. With the BCD fully inflated at the surface you should still be able to take a deep, comfortable breath; if it squeezes your chest, loosen it or move up a size.

How do I rinse and care for a BCD after diving?

Rinse the outside in fresh water and also flush the inside of the bladder, because salt water gets in through the inflator and dump valves. Fill the bladder roughly a third full of fresh water through the oral inflator, slosh it around, then drain it out through the inflator and each dump valve. Hang it to dry out of direct sunlight and store it partially inflated so the bladder walls do not stick together.

Should I use integrated weights or a weight belt?

Integrated weight pockets carry the lead in the BCD itself, which many divers find more comfortable and easier on the hips, while a weight belt keeps the weight independent of your BCD. Either way, you must be able to release your ditchable weight quickly with one hand, and your buddy should know how your system releases. Non-ditchable trim pockets are useful for balance but should never hold weight you might need to drop.

How do I pack a BCD for travel?

Make sure the BCD is completely dry inside and out before packing so it does not mildew in transit. Remove all weights, deflate it fully, and fold or roll it around softer items such as a wetsuit to cushion the inflator and valves. Avoid hard creases in the air cell, and unpack and air it out as soon as you arrive.

When does a BCD need to be serviced?

Follow the service interval in the manufacturer's manual, which is commonly an annual inspection alongside the rest of your life-support gear. Have the inflator, dump valves, and bladder checked any time the inflator sticks, free-flows, feels rough, or the BCD holds air poorly. Between services, confirm that it inflates and deflates properly as part of every pre-dive check.

What is the difference between a jacket-style and a back-inflate BCD?

A jacket-style BCD holds air in panels that wrap around your sides as well as your back, while a back-inflate BCD keeps the entire air cell behind you. Jacket styles tend to feel very stable and upright at the surface, and back-inflate styles keep the chest clear and are often preferred for horizontal trim underwater. Neither is objectively better, so treat it as a fit and preference decision and try both if you can.

Will my BCD fit any scuba tank?

Most recreational BCDs use an adjustable cam band sized for common single-cylinder diameters, so standard aluminum and steel tanks generally work. Re-check the band tension after the first wetting, because webbing can relax slightly and let the tank shift. If you dive doubles or unusual cylinder diameters, confirm compatibility with the manufacturer before assuming it will hold.

Does the lift capacity of the SCUBAPRO Classic BCD change by size?

Yes. Published lift differs by size: the XS provides 33.7 lb at 8.75 lb, the M provides 45 lb at 9.3 lb. Published values differ by size: the XS provides 33.7 lb lift at 8.75 lb, the M provides 45 lb lift at 9.3 lb. Divers using heavier steel tanks or thicker exposure suits should factor size into their lift needs, not just torso fit.

What is the difference between the BPI and Air2 inflator on this BCD?

The BPI, or Balanced Power Inflator, is the standard power inflator on this Classic BCD and handles inflation and deflation of the air cell only. SCUBAPRO also offers this same jacket with an Air2 alternate inflator regulator in place of the standard BPI.

What sizes does the SCUBAPRO Classic BCD with BPI come in?

It is offered in five sizes: XS, S, M, L, and XL. Published figures differ by size: the XS provides 33.7 lb of lift at 8.75 lb, while the M provides 45 lb at 9.3 lb.

Excellent wetsuit but will it crush quickly like other wetsuits?

I purchased a BARE 5mm Reactive wetsuit (open box), which was like new, to replace my 1.5 yr old BARE 5mm Velocity wetsuit which had collapsed to only 2.5mm after 3 diving trips (~100 dives). The Reactive wetsuit is well constructed and very flexible. I had to increase the size of the Reactive suit, as it was smaller than the BARE Velocity suit of the same size. Tremendous customer service by Dive Catalog to exchange the wetsuit for proper size. I hope the Reactive suit does not crush so quickly like my other wetsuits (BARE, Henderson, Pinnacle). Hoping that the new technology in this suit will keep me warm below the thermocline.

Perfectly Built

Best of the many many diver hangers in my life. Easily supports my steel-plated BCD, while still donned with all of my accessories. No cracks, bends, or dents. Has even supported my BCD w/ a steel 100 tank attached (not recommended, for safety purposes, though).

Will continue to use this hanger for the long-term. No brainer.
