About Sea Pearls Uncoated Pass-Thru Bullet Style Weights

Sea Pearls uncoated lead dive weights are die-casted from lead that has been reclaimed from car batteries. However, lead in its raw form does not meet the standard for Sea Pearl's dive weights, so they add other elements like antimony and tin to derive the alloy required for proper hardness and appearance. Using immense pressure, the molten lead alloy is injected into multi-cavity molds. This process provides the best quality, most consistent weights in the industry.

You like the more traditional weight belt for several reasons. One, they increase your stability in the water, and two, they make handling your Scuba system much easier because it's lighter out-of-the-water. Sea Pearls uncoated bullet style weights are a long favorite of experienced divers. These weights are accurate and true weight, they are more comfortable then block weights, because the weight belt threads through the center of the weight rather than through multiple slots.

Weights are manufactured with antimony and tin which is a lead alloy, that increase the lead's hardness and mechanical strength, making them resistant to deformation. The Sea Pearl uncoated weights may also be used with weight integrated BCD's that except bullet style hard lead. Weights are available in 2 lb., 3 lb., 4 lb. and 5 lb. (0.9, 1.36, 1.82 and 2.27 kg) increments. Weights are proudly made in the USA.

Questions & Answers

Questions about this item:

Das C  I don't know if it's obvious and I'm just missing it, or what, but does it come with multiples or just a singular weight?
Randall K  Only a singular weight.
Mel A  The 2 lb weight looks like it is shaped liked a cylinder. If it is, what is the diameter and lenght?
ROLAND K  It is a cylinder. It is 1.5 inches diameter and 3.75 inches in length. I got them for diving sidemount. I put them on my shoulder straps for trim weight. They work great there. Not it the way at all.
Scott W  Will the slot on these weights fit a Rob Allen rubber weight belt?
JAMES H  Yes they do. I use these 2lb ones for diving in Nor Cal. You may have to file out any burs, but it goes in just fine. Best lead for the money in my opinion. I used a bit of olive oil to help slide on.
Big T B  Hey, is the bullet shaped weight the 2lb weight, and the 3lb weight the next one down, as pictured in the item description?
Steve S  Yes, the weights are as pictured on the page.
JOHN F  I use the two pound weights and they are the bullet (round) type.
JOHN P  Of the weights I've received, in varying pounds, all have been as pictured on the LP website
BIKRAM D  Yes, looks like it.
Shopper  Would putting a few pounds on me when i free dive help me out, and even be worth it the price? im currently un-employed. I have enough money for a weight belt and weights. But if its not worth it, i really dont want to spend the money
MARC M  Well u need weight to dive with a wet or dry suit. I have had no problem with weights or belt. If u have no weights or belt than it is well worth it to buy.
EDWARD C  Hi Anthony. I'm a freedive spearfisher, I recently bought these weights, so leisure pro fwd. me your question. From my experience, weights are essential for any freediver, esp. if you are fishing ( I assume you are? ) . As you know, you want to keep your movements to a minimum,and weights definitely help you to do so. They help you stay at the bottom longer, requiring less exertion( esp. when fighting currents..) thus, burning less oxygen. Anything to help... If you are wearing neoprene, I couldn't imagine diving without weights. I wear tons of weight, even with lycra. In fact, I recently bought a vest. This is a luxury, I can't wait to try it! That being said, we go ten meters +. You can get away without weights if you are diving inshore around 3 meters or so, but anything more than that, you should definitely get the weights. Hope this helps. Regards, Ed
BRYCE F  That's a hard question to answer without being the one who will be using them. Personally, I don't use weights to free dive unless I'm wearing a wetsuit in which case I'll throw on 2-4lbs, depending on suit thickness, to get back to neutral. After my wetsuit compresses at depth it's nice and I tend to sink a bit more at depth and float a bit more at the surface. If you're not wearing a wetsuit, its simply a matter of your body type and how much you float at the surface. If you completely sink at the surface (without kicking or moving at all) I wouldn't recommend weights but if you tend to float a bit, a coupple pounds, depending on your body size, probably wouldn't hurt. Really, it's a matter of personal preference and body size. If you really want to be sure before you buy, it wouldn't be a bad idea to take a trip to the pool and, using objects of known weight, see how much it takes to make you sink completely below the surface. You'll want to buy this much weight but may decide not use 100% of it once you actually hit the lake/ocean and try it out. As an example, if you decide you need 4 lbs, don't buy a 4 lb weight, buy a 2lb and 2x1lb so that you can vary your weight from 0-1-2-3-4 lbs as needed. Hope this helps.
WILLIAM J  Yes. I just started free diving and I wear 7 lbs with 3mm suit in freshwater. I am slightly positive at the surface and am neutral at 20 ft after suit compression. I would recommend the standard weights where the belt threads in and out since they do not slide as easily on the belt.
