Apeks MTX-R Stage 3 Regulator Set Yoke
The MTX-R brings a dry-sealed, over-balanced first stage to a regulator setup built for demanding conditions. A rotating turret and heat-exchange features support practical hose routing and cold-water use, while the Comfo-Bite mouthpiece helps you hold the second stage comfortably.
Features and benefits
- Balanced gas delivery. The over-balanced diaphragm mechanism helps manage the supply to the second stage as diving conditions change.
- Balanced second stage. The balanced valve helps maintain a consistent inhalation response.
- Environmental protection. The sealed first-stage chamber helps keep water and contaminants away from its working mechanism.
- Reduced hose pull. Double-swivel hose allows movement at the hose connection for a more comfortable hold.
- Rotating hose turret. Arrange the low-pressure hoses around your preferred equipment layout.
- Comfortable mouthpiece hold. The Comfo-Bite palate bridge helps support the second stage without a hard bite.
Setup and compatibility
Connection: Yoke. Choose the fitting that matches your cylinder valve and its pressure rating.
This Stage 3 listing includes the primary regulator and the matching listed octopus. Confirm the selected cylinder connection and any separately listed accessories before ordering.

Additional specifications
- The MTX-R regulator, based on the MTX, was developed in response to the United States Navy Experimental Dive Unit’s extreme cold water test. Its innovative design allows it to perform in almost freezing water at depths exceeding 60 m, a feat unmatched by many other consumer-market regulators.

- Yoke - 232 bar (3365 psi)
- 9-10 bar (131-145 psi)
First Stage
- Breakthrough, innovative over-moulded first-stage endcap and environmental diaphragm helps to prevent ice build-up that can cause first stage free flow in extreme circumstances. Also protects the first Stage from impact damage.
- Ribbed diaphragm clamp for improved heat exchange in cold water conditions.
- Unique over-balanced diaphragm design – as the diver descends, the over-balancing feature allows the medium pressure gas in the hose to increase at a faster rate than ambient. This results in superior performance at depth.
- 5 x medium pressure ports, 4 mounted on a rotating turret for improved hose orientation
- 2 x angled high-pressure ports for optimal hose routing and fitting of transmitters.
- Double swivel hose for greater freedom of movement and comfort.
- DIN, Yoke and M26 Thread available, 300 bar, 232 bar and M26 300 bar (O2) respectively.
- Tested for Octopus use - EN250A to 60 m cold water.
- Nitrox/Oxygen compatible – Up to 40% O2 outside the EU (European Union), within the EU anything above 21% O2 must use an M26 Connection.
2nd Stage
- High performance, pneumatically balanced, lever operated poppet valve.
- Ergonomic and simple to use venturi lever.
- Large purge button.
- Flexible nylon braided hose, which has better cold water performance than traditional rubber hose.
- Nitrox/Oxygen compatible – Up to 40% O² .
