Component construction and Specification

Buckles
Manufactured from acetal or polyester engineering grade polymers by ITW Nexus.
Model Name: ITW SR25 Military Version (NATO Standard).

Fabrics
KS-1000D
This is a custom made fabric used by Karrimor which consists of 1100 decitex (1000 denier) texturised Du Pont Cordura Nylon 6 fabric backed by a multi-layer elastomeric polyurethane coating to give long lasting weatherproofing.

The fabric surface is also treated with silicone polymers to improve dirt shedding.

Foams
Du Pont Coolmax
Load bearing pads are constructed from closed cell foam with ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) for long lasting comfort.

Body contact areas are supported by reticulated filter foam covered with a 3-dimensional space fabric. This gives greatly improved breathability and comfort over previous models.

All fabrics and foams will not hold moisture so the system is extremely fast drying.

Seams
Bonded nylon construction to help prevent water ingress.

Webbings
Made from nylon and are treated to be crumple resistant.

Zips
Main zips are 'self repairing' nylon spiral zips manufactured by YKK.
Medium weight zips are 5 gauge and heavyweight zips are 10 gauge YKK.

IRR
All DPM camouflage fabrics utilise 1000 denier ballistic Cordura with an IRR finish that meets current military specifications.
