Refresh Your System for the Road Ahead There is nothing worse than a hydration bladder that leaks or holds onto the taste of last year's energy drink. The Rothco Replacement 2.5L Bladder is the perfect upgrade or spare for your mid-sized tactical packs. Designed to seamlessly fit Rothco’s hydration-compatible gear (including the Medium Transport Tactical Pack), this reservoir offers a specific 2.5 Liter (approx. 85 oz) capacity that strikes the perfect balance between weight and water volume. Constructed from robust Polyurethane, this bladder is built to handle the rigors of the trail without bursting. It comes fully equipped with a 42.75-Inch Drinking Tube wrapped in a protective Neoprene Sleeve. This sleeve not only protects the tube from UV damage and abrasion but also insulates your water, keeping it cool in the heat and preventing freezing in the cold. The mouthpiece features a user-friendly On/Off Bite Valve, allowing you to control water flow instantly and seal the system completely to prevent drips during transport. Key Features 2.5 Liter Capacity: A versatile size that offers more water than a standard 2L bladder but fits in packs where a 3L is too tall. Insulated Hose: The flexible drinking tube is covered in a soft neoprene sleeve for temperature regulation and physical protection. Leak-Proof Valve: Features a convenient bite valve with a manual On/Off Switch to stop water flow when not in use. Secure Mounting: Equipped with dual 1-Inch Top Attachment Points to anchor the bladder inside your pack and prevent it from slumping. Universal Compatibility: Designed to fit all Rothco hydration packs and most commercial hydration-ready backpacks with a 17-inch vertical clearance. Durable Build: Made from tough polyurethane that resists punctures and wear. Why It Matters Hydration bladders are consumables; they eventually degrade. This replacement allows you to keep your favorite backpack in service without buying a whole new system. The 2.5L size is a "Goldilocks" capacity—perfect for day hikes where 2 liters isn't enough, but 3 liters feels like overkill. Technical Overview Capacity: 2.5 Liters (85 oz). Dimensions: 17" x 6.6". Material: Polyurethane. Hose: Insulated.
