Quick Overview

The Rothco 2 Quart Canteen is a large-capacity, durable water carrier designed for personal hydration during outdoor activities like hiking, camping, and extended patrols. Its robust dual-body construction and hands-free shoulder strap make it a reliable choice for field operations or general emergency preparedness kits.

Field Application Steps

  1. Inspect all components for cleanliness and damage prior to use.
  2. Fill with 2 quarts (64 oz) of confirmed potable water, leaving a small air gap, and secure the cap tightly.
  3. Adjust the shoulder strap for a secure, hands-free carry that does not impede movement or access to gear.
  4. After drinking, immediately re-secure the cap to prevent spillage and contamination.
  5. NEVER fill the canteen with untreated water; purify water in a separate container first.
  6. After use, clean, sanitize, and store the canteen completely dry with the cap off to prevent microbial growth.
