The TrailShot filter is a compact, highly effective water filtration system weighing only 142 g. You can drink directly from the outlet or fill your bottle by pumping. You can filter up to 2,000 litres of water before changing the cartridge.
The MSR TrailShot MicroFilter is a compact water filter designed for hydrating directly at water sources during hiking, trail running or lightweight outings. Weighing just 142 g (5 oz), it slips easily into a pocket so you don't need to carry a large water supply from the start.
The TrailShot removes more than 99.9% of bacteria, protozoa and particles found in freshwater. This lets you drink directly from a river, lake or spring, or fill a bottle for the trail ahead.
It is simple to use and requires no assembly. The pump operates one-handed and filters approximately 1 litre per minute. This instant readiness suits outdoor enthusiasts who want to stop briefly without setting up a full filtration system.
Maintenance is equally straightforward: simply shake the filter to clean the membrane and maintain flow rate. No tools or complex disassembly are needed in the field.
Its main advantage over a traditional pump filter is its pocket-friendly format. It combines low weight, effective flow rate and the ability to drink directly from the source, making it an ideal solution for quick outings and routes with regular water points.
