Description

The M-48 MOD-1 Full Face Mask from Kirby Morgan® is a revolutionary evolution of the original M-48, now refined for greater performance, versatility, and durability. Its signature two-cavity design allows the lower pod to be removed above or below the surface, letting divers conserve air, speak clearly, and make underwater gas switches or emergency air sharing.

This lightweight full-face mask now features twin tempered glass lenses for increased visibility, a re-engineered buckle system with 5-point strap adjustment, and a mechanical equalizing device for nose pinching. With reinforced high-impact components and multiple mounting tabs and threaded inserts, the MOD-1 is truly modular—ready for lights, cameras, and future accessory integrations.
