FAQs
Is the Ronhill SoftFlask included with this straw?
No, this product is the straw ONLY. The Ronhill 500ml SoftFlask must be purchased separately.
Can I cut the straw to any length?
Yes, the 15cm straw can be cut to your desired length using clean scissors. Ensure the cut is straight for a proper fit.
How do I clean the straw?
Hand wash the straw with warm, soapy water after each use and rinse thoroughly. Allow it to air dry completely.
What is the straw made of?
The straw is made from BPU-free material, ensuring safe hydration.
Will this straw fit other brands of soft flasks?
No, this straw is specifically designed to fit the Ronhill 500ml SoftFlask and is not compatible with other brands or sizes.
How does the straw improve hydration?
The straw brings the high-flow performance bite valve closer to your mouth, allowing for easier and quicker sips without needing to tilt the flask significantly or interrupt your activity.
What if the straw is too short after cutting?
Cutting the straw is a permanent modification. If you cut it too short, it may not reach the bottom of the flask, hindering full hydration. It is advisable to measure carefully before cutting.
Troubleshooting
Straw does not fit the SoftFlask lid
Verify that you are using the Ronhill 500ml SoftFlask and that the straw is being inserted into the correct port on the lid.
Difficulty drawing water through the straw
Ensure the bite valve is fully open and unobstructed. Check that the straw is securely seated in the lid and the flask is not overfilled. Ensure the straw has not been cut too short, preventing it from reaching the bottom of the flask.
Leakage from the bite valve
Confirm the bite valve is properly closed. Inspect the valve for any damage or debris. Ensure the straw is not damaged and is creating a proper seal within the lid.
Water tastes unusual
Wash the straw thoroughly with warm, soapy water and rinse well. Ensure the flask itself is also clean and free from residues. Allow both components to air dry completely.
