submergers
Those who sink
Submergers are people or things that submerge—that push or force something underwater, or go underwater themselves.
The word appears occasionally in technical contexts describing equipment that plunges objects into liquid: The submergers lowered the components into the chemical bath.
More often, submerge takes other grammatical forms.
