The manufacturer writes that the B2x achieves a remarkable balance by merging Atomic Aquatics' distinctive second-stage design in titanium with a first stage featuring a sleek black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) over chrome plating.

By utilising the Diamond-Like Carbon process, B2x achieves very good friction properties not found in a standard brass regulator. This provides good durability and corrosion resistance without compromising the function of the first stage. Diamond-Like Carbon coating provides 16 times more protection than raw metal alone.

The B2x is equipped with a stainless-steel Comfort Swivel with black coating, allowing 30 degrees of rotational movement without bending or kinking the hose.
