Hello @kirkwutzke236, sorry to hear that you never had any luck with this system. Depending on which glove you choose to use, the key is to use the correct spanner ring.
The rings were fine, the interlocking pieces that are supposed to seal didn't. The ring could possibly have been warped, but if you look at how those tiny "O" rings are supposed to seal to the inner circumference as compared to other brands which actually compress the "O" ring, I believe they are poorly engineered. Look at how Kubi's or Rolock's seal.
Used that system for many years when I was forced to dive in cold water. I would put hand warmers in them and kept my hands toasty warm after hours in the water.
Hello @CarlosF-vk5db, you simply push it out from the inside. I usually reach though the ring and seal with my fingers and pull upward. Sometimes this can be difficult. When I install a new seal, I will cover it in talc powder to assist with proper positioning.
@@LakeHickoryScuba Thanks for the info! Been trying to do it like that, but can’t get them removed and fingers are all torn by trying too hard. I was hoping there was a special tool or video showing how to do it. 😁🤿
the inner ring ring the is glued to the suit.. the one you fold like i smiley face. does it seal tigth ? you dont use any glue between the suit ring and the first plasting lock ring?
Hello @AndersLind-pc6rr, the inner ring is made from a rubber composite, and once it is in place, it is waterproof. You should not use any lubricant or sealant of any kind.
#ASKBRIAN. I would like to see a video of changing out just the gloves on this system. I haven’t figured out how to get the green ring out of the glove so that I can replace the old gloves
Hello @stevenwood1468, we have another complete series starting in 2024 on Dry Suit Diving, and one of the videos specifically discusses how to remove the glove rings from the gloves. If you need help until then, feel free to reach out to my email, bryan@lakehickoryscuba.com, and I will be glad to help you out.

Thanks for making this video - very helpful!
Glad you found the video helpful @barbaramortimer1257.
You just answered a question I had for almost 2 years.
I could not figure out how to install my gloves lock on my dry suit 😊
Glad you found our video helpful @praevidere.
Never had any luck getting these water tight. Swapped them out for Rolocks and solved all my problems.

Hello @BlueWaterCozumel. Adding hand warmers is a great suggestion. Thanks for sharing.
Great video!
Question:
How do you remove the inner ring in order to replace the wrist seals if needed?
