About this product

The multi-compatible Platypus QuickDraw 3L Gravity Filter System is the most versatile ultralight gravity filter on the market.

Able to convert from a gravity system to a squeeze setup when you want it, it can do it all with your preferred bottles and reservoirs.

At the core of the system is the iconic fast-flowing hollow fiber QuickDraw Filter.

The 3L dirty reservoir’s hang handle makes for quick-and-easy hang-ups and is sized for comfortable carrying when it’s full.

The handle easily detaches to make compressing and rolling the reservoir down hassle-free when you opt for squeeze filtering.

The QuickDraw filter can attach to many different bottles and reservoirs with its I/O (inner/outer) threads on the dirty side and the ConnectCap™ on the clean side.
