The DT50 model in the Hollis DT Wings series features a unique 360-degree tapered profile, specifically designed to handle heavier cylinders. This enhances lift towards the hips, facilitating superior horizontal trim during diving while ensuring optimal surface flotation.
The DT45 Dual model offers consistent 360-degree flotation, making it ideal for lighter aluminum cylinders. It also features a redundant air cell, making it a preferred choice for warm water diving with banded aluminum cylinders in a wetsuit, where backup inflation is crucial.
Both models of Hollis DT Wings come with tank slots, allowing for occasional single tank dives without the need for a single tank adapter plate. This feature cuts down on weight and unnecessary accessories, making it a perfect companion for traveling divers.
The Hollis DT Wings are built to last, with a two-piece bladder design. The outer shell is made from rugged 1680 Cordura nylon, providing resistance against abrasion and punctures. The inner bladder is crafted from 420-denier nylon, internally urethane laminated with radio frequency (RF) welded seams to maintain buoyancy.
The DT45 provides a lift capacity of 45 lbs. (20 kg), while the DT50 offers a lift capacity of 50 lbs. (23 kg). These enhanced lift capacities make your double cylinder diving experiences more enjoyable and safe.

The Hollis DT line of wings are another brand-new series designed for double cylinders. The DT50 features a 360 Degree tapered profile for heavier cylinders, to increase lift towards the hips, promoting better horizontal trim in dive position while still allowing perfect surface floatation. While the DT45 Dual features a more consistent 360 Degree floatation for lighter aluminum cylinders with a redundant air cell. Target audience for the DT45 dual is warm water, banded aluminum cylinders in a wetsuit where backup inflation is mandatory. While the DT50 is focused on the dedicated dry suit diver, with heavier cylinders in cold water.
Tank slots included on both models, which allows the occasional single tank dive without the need for a single tank adapter plate. This reduces weight and unnecessary accessories while traveling. The bladder is a two-piece design, with a rugged 1680 Cordura nylon outer shell to prevent abrasion and punctures, and a 420-denier nylon internally urethane laminated with radio frequency (RF) welded seam inner bladder to maintain the buoyancy. The lower OPV (single DT50 & dual DT45) are easy to reach for venting gas while horizontal or heads down, and the inflator design is a K style with a rugged crushproof rubber hose for easy positioning and oral inflation should you need to. Both DT wings come standard with 3/8" threaded quick disconnect inflator hose(s). Welded flange and one-piece retainer for servicing without the need for tools. Central elbow to avoid tank valve/regulator interference.
