Kirby Morgan offers a wide variety of spare parts kits, rebuild and upgrade kits, from the most basic O-ring kits and soft goods kits, all the way up to the largest “Soft Goods” Spares Kits which contain numerous spare parts and also include many of the smaller kits.
This is a complete list of Kirby Morgan® Regulators, from the time honored Superflow “B” regulator that’s been the standard on our SuperLite® 17B Helmet for over three decades, to our easy breathing SCUBA regulators (plastic or metal), to the highest performance commercial diving helmet and full face mask regulators available in the world (see REX & EXO®BR).
