Platypus QuickDraw Ultralight Water Filter – 3 L/min, Pink

Platypus QuickDraw Ultralight Microfilter: Fast, Flexible Filtration

For backpackers who value speed and simplicity, the QuickDraw Microfilter blends ultralight design with dependable filtration performance. When you squeeze, it can move up to 3 liters of water per minute, helping you refill quickly during climbs or long stretches between rests. In gravity setups, expect about 1.75 liters per minute, delivering steady, hands-free flow without fuss.

Two field-proven cleaning methods keep filtration moving when water sources are less than ideal: shake-to-clean and a tool-free backflush. Both are easy to perform in the field, helping maintain flow rates and reduce waiting time. The compact unit weighs just 2.4 oz and measures 5 x 1.8 inches, tucking into a pocket or side pouch with minimal bulk.

Flexible, kit-ready compatibility

The QuickDraw uses an I/O dual-thread design and a ConnectCap to attach to a wide range of bottles and reservoirs. It securely connects with smartwater bottles, Cnoc bags, the Platy Hoser reservoir, most Platy bottles, and many common 28mm plastic bottles, letting you tailor a filtration kit to your preferred containers and trips.

• Connects with 28mm bottles and reservoirs for flexible hydration
• ConnectCap enables topping from most vessels without removing the filter
• Direct drinking from the clean side spout for quick refreshment

Lightweight, rugged, ready for the road

In the hand, the QuickDraw feels sturdy yet light. The soft-touch filter housing stays grippy when wet and won’t pick up dirt from the ground. An attached clean-side cap keeps the drinking path tidy and helps prevent leaks in the pack. The unit weighs 69 grams (2.4 oz) and measures 5 x 1.8 inches, with no assembly required out of the box. The kit includes a dirty-side cap, drink cap, and ConnectCap.

Quality assurance and durability

Each filter is individually tested and meets NSF & EPA P231 protocol, achieving substantial removal of impurities in testing. Made in the USA, the QuickDraw is backed by a limited lifetime warranty, reflecting Platypus’ hydration expertise and commitment to long-lasting gear.
