Product Information
Full details
The CamelBak Magnetic Tube Trap is an essential accessory for mountain bikers, hikers, and trail runners who want to keep their hydration tube secure and accessible without fumbling while moving. By utilizing a self-seating magnet, it allows users to stow their drinking tube with a simple click, ensuring the tube stays out of the way but ready for instant use. While it offers excellent convenience and stability, it is specifically designed for 20mm webbing, so users with non-standard pack straps should verify their equipment width before purchase.

FAQs
Will this fit a non-CamelBak reservoir?
It is designed to be compatible with all CamelBak reservoir tubes, but it may fit other brands if their tube diameter is standard.
Can I install this on a strap wider than 20mm?
No, the clip is specifically designed for 20mm (3/4 inch) webbing and will not fit wider straps.
Does the magnet affect electronic devices?
The magnet is localized to the tube trap; however, it is best practice to keep it away from sensitive magnetic compasses or credit cards.
How do I clean the Magnetic Tube Trap?
Simply use a damp cloth to wipe away any dirt or salt. It is safe for standard hand washing.
Can I move it from one pack to another?
Yes, the two-piece design allows you to easily detach it and move it to any pack featuring the correct 20mm webbing width.
Troubleshooting
Tube does not snap into place automatically
Check the magnet surface for mud or debris that might be creating a gap between the magnetic surfaces.
The trap slides along the webbing strap
Ensure the webbing is securely threaded through the mounting slots and that there is no slack; the fit is designed to be snug on 20mm webbing.
Magnet feels weak or unreliable
Check that the two magnet components are properly aligned and not obstructed by heavy clothing or fabric layers.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Quick and easy one-handed tube management
- Compatible with all CamelBak hydration reservoirs
- Secure magnetic connection keeps the tube from swinging
- Allows users to stay focused on the trail while hydrating
Cons
- Only fits 20mm (3/4 inch) webbing straps
- Magnet strength may be affected by heavy external interference
- Requires proper alignment during initial strap installation
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward: simply thread the base of the magnetic trap through the 20mm webbing on your pack’s shoulder strap. Ensure the trap is positioned at a height that allows your tube to reach your mouth comfortably while the tube is securely docked.
To keep the trap functioning optimally, wipe the magnet clean of mud, debris, or salt buildup periodically. If the magnet feels weak, a quick wipe with a damp cloth is usually sufficient to restore the connection strength. Because the unit separates into two pieces, you can easily remove it for washing your pack or moving the trap to a different bag with matching webbing size.
