I purchase this part partly as a repair part in the event these parts should fail. Another reason is this part could be used to modify another brand of hydration system to make it compatible with my platypus hydration system. Most brands have parts (excluding the hose/tubing) which are not compatible with other brands.I use this with the MSR Hydration Kit and DromLite Water Carrier by MSR in a frame bag on my bike. This quick disconnect makes it easy to remove and refill the bladder during races. I wish it were cheaper, but other than that it works great.These quick disconnects from Platypus work great; of course, all Platypus stuff is good. I used these specifically to make a longer tube for certain uses. When I am hiking/ATV riding I connect the standard size tube. When I am out in my Jeep Wrangler, I can hook up a longer tube to easily pull up and drink from while the bladder/pack hangs behind my seat. You''ll probably need a couple of these. Great Work Platypus!
