Maybe you just want to keep a small water bottle at hand and top it up during the day, the Sea to Summit Pack Tap 4L is the perfect solution for this. Keep it in your rucksack and fill your bottle as required, your Pack Tap will shrink down to almost nothing once it's empty.
It's completely tasteless, safe to use around food and easy to use as you can just hang one up on a tree to set up a water station. You won’t have to worry about water leaking everywhere as it contains a self-shutting valve for one-handed use, plus the plastic/foil bladder is tough and won’t puncture easily.
So, whether you use them for water or for other cheeky beverages, you can’t go wrong with this little space-saving pack tap.
Is there an accessory or non original hose that can replace the valve for filling pots etc.
G'day Ian,
There isn't, sorry. The MSR Dromedary Hydration Kit definitely fits, but that appears to have been discontinued by MSR in Australia.
Might be worth doing a google search to see if you can find somewhere that still has these instock.
I find it hard to open to refill. Is there an easy way?
G'day Jane,
The valve is tightly on to prevent leaks, it can be difficult at first to pop this off. A few others have recommended to slowly pull the clear plastic valve away from the bladder and it should peel off quite easily. You could try to get a bit of your thumbnail or round-ended butter knife or screwdriver to help lift this off.
I have the 4 litre Tap Pack and can't work out how to open it?
G'day Sharron,
The spout system can be a bit tricky the first time you remove it to fill up but it's super easy once you know the technique. The black cap pops off effortlessly but the valve is quite tight to prevent leaking. Using gentle pressure, slowly pull the clear plastic valve away from the bladder and it should peel off quite easily. Maybe try to get a bit of your thumbnail underneath as leverage.
Just wondering what the is ideal of the bladder is made of? Cheers Callum
G'day Callum,
The Sea to Summit Pack Tap bladder is made from a double layer tough Mylar which is a combination of plastic and foil. Similar to the bladders in the boxes of water, except a little more durable and tougher.
