Katadyn Hiker Pro Hand Pump Water Filter for Backpacking, Camping, Emergency Survival
The Katadyn Hiker Pro Transparent is a portable hand pump water filter built for camping, backpacking, hiking, survival, and emergency preparedness. The lightweight 11.2 oz microfilter pumps 1 liter of clean water per minute and connects directly to most water bottles and hydration packs. The transparent body gives you a clear view of the cartridge so you always know when to clean or replace it - no guesswork on the trail, no unexpected slowdowns when you need water most. The 0.2-micron glass fiber cartridge filters up to 1,150 liters; activated carbon granules improve taste; a filter protector extends cartridge life; and a pre-filter on the intake hose protects the cartridge from debris.
- CAMPING, BACKPACKING & SURVIVAL WATER FILTER: AntiClogTM, 0.2-micron glass fiber filter reliably removes 99.9999% of bacteria, 99.9% of protozoa, cysts, algae, spores, and sediments from clear to muddy water. An active carbon core reduces unpleasant tastes and odors.
- EASY TO CLEAN IN THE FIELD: Unlike other water filter systems, the Hiker Pro can be cleaned while camping, backpacking, hiking, or for survival in an emergency. Simply remove the filter from the body and swish in clear water to avoid clogging and ensure a consistent output.
- NAMED EASIEST TO USE BY US RETAILERS: The comfortable, ergonomic handle allows you to filter more water with less effort. Also comes with quick-connect hoses and a bottle adaptor makes for easy connection to most water bottles and hydration bladders.
- FAST FLOW RATE: The large filter surface of 271 cm2 (107 square inches), enables a flow rate of 1L per minute, with approximately ~48 pumps. Filters an average of 300 gallons before needing a replacement. Ideal for use by 1-2 people.
- LIGHT & COMPACT: At just 11 ounces, Hiker Pro is highly portable so you can enjoy fresh water on your next ultralight backpacking, hiking, or camping adventure. The manual pumping method also makes it perfect for emergency or survival kits. Storage bag included
