This model is not currently offered as a verified ready to buy print.
What it does
- Lets air escape as your bottle fills so water flows without getting stuck.
- Stem stays fixed while cap twists, so you can remove the cap without disturbing your filter setup.
- Works with Camelbak Crux or 5/16 inch ID tubing, so you can use it with most gravity water filters.
- Made in the USA from a custom design, so you get a part built for your exact filter system.
You get a working bottle cap that plays nice with gravity water filters. This cap lets air in as water fills your bottle, so you skip the air lock problem. The stem does not attach to the cap, which means the stem stays put while you twist the cap on and off.
The design works with larger Camelbak Crux bottles or any 5/16 inch ID tubing setup. Air can move freely, so your filter stays efficient and your bottle fills smooth. Print it upside down with supports so the two pieces stay separate during printing and work right when done.
