This welded mat is the lightest in the Black Wolf range and is constructed from a durable 30D stretched fabric with a TPU coating, with a non-slip base so that it doesn’t slide around on your tent floor.

Do i need a pump to inflate this mattress or can i ise my breath?

G'day Jack,
The HexaTherm Lite Hiker isn't supplied with a pump, so you can use your breath to inflate, or the valve will fit the Sea to Summit Jetstream Pump and Airstream Pumpsack, as well as the Exped Mini Pump.

G'day, just wondering what the R-value is on this one?2 answers
R-value?
Kay - Adelaide(4 years ago)
G'day Kay,
Black Wolf haven't provided an R-value for this mat, so, unfortunately, we don't know the R-value. They have indicated that they use 60g/m2 of PrimaLoft insulation so we know it's insulated, however as far as I know there isn't a direct way to calculate/convert R-value from this figure.

G'day Kay,
Good news, Black Wolf have just had these mats tested and they have an R-value of 2.5.

How many air chambers does the mat have?1 answer
If it springs a leak, are there multiple air chambers to ensure a night's relative comfort if immediate repair isn't possible?

G'day Tahti,
We've not yet seen these brand new mats in the flesh, but based on the information available from Black Wolf they're a single layer air chamber, so if you spring a leak then you'll have to repair it before going back to sleep.
