Divecore - HNBR Rubber (Old Formula) - WFL Professional Diving Watch Strap - Black

Discontinued - Old Formula HNBR Rubber. The WFL Strap is the latest purpose-built diving band from Divecore, blending the vintage character of a traditional waffle design with the technical upgrades and proven ergonomics of the HP model. Crafted from an upgraded Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (HNBR) compound, the WFL delivers a high-performance feel comparable to FKM, but with superior tensile strength, tear resistance, and extreme low-temperature flexibility. Designed to thrive in harsh marine environments, the HNBR material offers exceptional resistance to saltwater, wet heat, and compression. The WFL retains all the essential features of the original HP series while adopting a classic waffle-style structure and a micro-adjustment system for unparalleled sizing precision. Spring Bars: ISO-rated Japanese 2.5mm quick-release fat spring bars come pre-installed with this strap, making it compatible with Swiss dive watches. The DiveCore HP spring bars have a 1mm tip, slightly thicker than the standard 0.7mm tip. If the strap isn’t compatible with your watch, you can easily swap the fat spring bars for standard ones or contact our team for a free return. Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (HNBR) is a premium, high-durability elastomer engineered to withstand extreme physical and environmental demands. Known for its exceptional tensile strength and tear resistance, HNBR outperforms standard FKM in pure physical toughness, making it highly resilient against cuts and abrasions. Because its molecular structure is stabilized through hydrogenation, it offers outstanding long-term elastic recovery and maintains flexibility in extreme cold down to -40 °C. Combined with its unparalleled resistance to saltwater, steam, and wet heat, HNBR is an ideal material for high-performance diving straps designed to endure harsh marine environments without compromising on comfort or structural integrity. • 2.5mm ISO-rated Japanese diver’s spring bars • HNBR Rubber • Measures: 82mm & 128mm • Thickness: 4mm • Taper: 2mm taper to buckle. • Premium Brushed or DLC Black Stainless Steel Hardware • Adjustable Locking Rubber Keepers • Fits Wrists: 6.5" to 8.5" Keep in mind that the fit may vary based on your preference for a tighter or looser wear.
