Source Tactical Gear Universal Magnetic Tube Holder Clip (Black)

I use the Ultimate Direction hydration pack for my long runs and for shorter runs on hot/humid days. The only thing lacking with this pack is a way to keep the tube in place, and this Source Tactical Gear Magnetic Tube Clip set does the job. I love it! Works great: keeps the tube in place, the magnet is very strong..... the clip part slides up a little sometimes, but it is easy to push back in place. Highly recommend for those who need/want to convert an existing hydration pack to one that can hold a tube in place. This performed well for many long runs and 3 half marathons run in the space of 6 weeks.

SOURCE tactical was founded by ex-Israeli military. That heritage is reflected in this product. Simple and effective, it does exactly what it is supposed to do and the cost is negligible. What more can you ask for? The plastic from which this is made is very hard. It will not break by accident.The clip will fit over the chest strap of an Osprey pack. The magnet piece will fit over a Platypus bladder tube. You will have to squeeze the tube to get the tube into the magnet piece, but once put together the two won't separate. I was worried the magnet would pinch the tube, but it doesn't. If you use a Platypus bladder, you will find this a more efficient means of retaining the tube than the clip that came with the bladder. Now that I'm using this, I can hike uninterrupted.The magnet is strong. The product packaging warns about getting it close to electronic devices.I'm very pleased with this product and recommend it without reservation.

Works very well in terms of "grabbing" your Camelbak hose and holding it to the sternum strap. The magnet is very strong and keeps the hose in place even when mountain biking on bumpy trails. On the downside -- the magnet is really strong and will interfere with compass readings. So, if you are planning to use this on your pack when you are adventure racing (the kind of adventure racing that requires navigation with map and compass), this product will really mess with your compass. I now only use this when I go hiking or biking. It works great for that!

This is a good quality product that does what is described. Slip one side on your hydration pack hose and the other on your backpack chest strap and the magnet will keep your bite valve from flopping around while you walk. Note that if you are using an insulated tube it is a tight fit...a bit too tight for my preference but it works. Magnet is nice and strong.Also when using in on an insulated tube give some forethought to which way you want the valve cove facing. The first time I put it on mine the bite valve cover flipped towards me rather than away, which was annoying. It fit so tight that I had to pull it off and put it back on again. Not the product's fault, but it was annoying.

Grabs well very pleased with it.

I really needed this to stabilize the drinking hose on the basic product. Excellent accessory and highly recommended.

This little, simple, magnet gadget worked great and I installed it in seconds and it will hold the drink hose exactly where I want it to.

This is very expensive for what it is. The magnet works well, but the actual clip is sized for the recreational drinking bladders and not the insulated "tactical" tubes with sleeves on. Anyways, the plastic isn't brittle, but best use an alligator clip instead.
