Drysuit leak seeker plugs

thingiverse

With these seals you can close the latex seals for neck and wrists in a drysuit. The purpose is to be able to inflate the suit so that leaks can be found. Because it is nice to do this with the suit inside out (you can fix a found leak immediately) I included a spot for an inflator. Holes are provided for 60 mm M6 bolts. A hole is provided for an inflator connection. Both the bolts and the inflator must be mounted with heat. I pull the heated head of the bolt into the provided hole to get a tight connection. After this I remove the bolt and refit it with an o-ring to provide an airtight connection. The inflator is also heated to make its own thread. Afterwards is can be refitted with an o-ring in the provided chamber. The clamps I bent from aluminium strip 5 * 20 mm. The sizes of the inserts are 12-11 cm for the neck seal and 5-4 cm for the wrist seal.
