The Warrior Elite Ops Small Hydration Carrier is a MOLLE-compatible pouch designed for a compact hydration bladder. The pouch is sized for a 1.5-liter (50oz) bladder. It can be attached to the back panel of a MOLLE-compatible plate carrier or to the side of a backpack or bag equipped with MOLLE webbing.
The front of the pouch features a Velcro panel for attaching patches and several MOLLE rows, allowing an additional pouch to be mounted on the hydration carrier. A drainage hole at the bottom lets any water inside the pouch escape. The interior is lined with Posi Grip fabric, which reinforces the structure and helps keep the liquid in the bladder cooler or unfrozen for longer.

Materials used in Warrior products:
Fabric
Warrior uses 500D fabric in its products. Fabric made from 500D fibers offers excellent abrasion and tear resistance. The solution-dyed fibers are naturally stain-resistant and easy to clean.
Threads
The durability of a product built from stitching depends on the quality of the thread used. The main factors reducing thread lifespan are mold and sunlight. To maximize the lifespan of WAS products, only U.S.-made nylon threads are used, which are protected against UV light and mold damage.
Properties of the fibers used by Warrior:
- Resistance to acids – good
- Resistance to alkalis – good
- Abrasion resistance – excellent
- Heat resistance – 142 °C (maximum continuous heat tolerance before product damage)
- Melting point – 265 °C

-
- 25mm (1 inch) breaking strength: 544kg (1200 lbs)
