Regulator ATOMIC Z2 - first and second stage
Why Zirconium?
"Z" in the controller name refers to the use of Zirconium as the material providing surface protection to the 1st stage brass body.
Atomic has developed a special brass-chrome-Zirconium plating process to provide 3-4 times greater corrosion resistance than conventional chrome plating. The lever, spring and saddle pressure limiter in the Z2/Z2x second stage are of course made of titanium. Atomic = performance + economy Affordability does not mean a reduction in quality. The Z2/Z2x is our most compact and economical controller. However, it still remains an exceptional combination of performance, ergonomics and materials unmatched by any competitor in any price range. The Z2/Z2x comes with a limited lifetime warranty, just like our other models.
