Sinker tube attachment

In order not to crash and damage the Sinker tube connecting the ropes directly to the pipes, Ad.Aq. designs the “ Sinker tube attachment” , a polyethylene element with four stainless holes that fit perfectly the tube. So that the connection ropes between floating and submerged tubes pass through the stainless holes.
