A second-stage regulator for scuba divers, wherein the user's inhalation effort is lessened considerably by the reduction of the friction between selected components thereof. Coaxially to the regulator poppet, a flexible sleeve is sealingly connected to the poppet and the baffle, so as to avoid blow-by of gaseous mixture through the baffle opening through which there extends the tail of the poppet connected to the lever of the regulator extending in the outlet chamber thereof. The poppet head is placed in ferrule with an at least part-circular profile abutting the inner part of the intermediate chamber to allow the poppet oscillation. The lever end contacting the diaphragm, separating the outlet chamber from the outside, has a generally arched shape with a profile such that the length of the arch between two adjacent contact points measured along the lever is generally equal to the length of the segment between the same adjacent contact points measured along the diaphragm.
