With over 20 years' experience gained from designing and manufacturing for the commercial diving and rafting industry - and exported worldwide - ARK's range of Para-shape Lift Bags are tried and tested under some of the most demanding conditions in the world. The ARK range of open parachute Lift Bags is designed for commercial light salvage, object recovery, sub-sea scientific applications and underwater construction. While their single point attachment is ideal for lifting and moving underwater structures such as pipes, mooring blocks, templates and salvage, the main application is for lifting large objects from the seabed to the surface.
The Lift Bags are designed for single diver deployment and use; the Lift Bags are compact and portable, making them suitable for remote locations and small craft deployment.
Manufactured from marine-grade heavy duty PVC, with all seams and components joined with indestructible heat and HF welding technologies.
All the para-shape Lift Bags include a single-point webbing attachment point, and the canopy of the Lift Bag includes an external hoist point or handle, and a dump valve that is actuated with an extended dump line.
Built and tested in compliance with IMCA D-016 - Revision 3.
Optional extras include carry bags, custom branding and labelling.
