Spitkit bags
Spitkit bags are specialized tool bags designed to carry and organize the essential tools and hardware needed for placing spits, anchors, or other bolting systems during climbing, canyoning, or caving activities. These compact bags focus on durability, organization, and portability, making them indispensable for technical outdoor pursuits.
Key Features of a Spitkit Bag
1. Compact Size
- Designed to hold just the essentials: spit bolts, hand drills, hammer, and related tools.
- Typically small and lightweight for easy attachment to a harness or belt.
2. Durable Construction
- Robust Materials: Made from heavy-duty fabrics like Cordura, tarpaulin, or reinforced nylon to withstand sharp tools and rough handling.
- Reinforced Bottom: To handle the weight of metal tools and avoid wear and tear.
3. Water Resistance
- Ideal for canyoning or wet conditions, spitkit bags are often waterproof or water-resistant to protect tools from moisture and rust.
4. Organization
- Internal Compartments:
- Loops or small pouches for bolts, hangers, and drill bits.
- Dedicated space for a hand drill and hammer.
- Quick Access: Wide openings with drawstrings, zippers, or Velcro for easy retrieval of tools during use.
5. Portability
- Attachment Points: Equipped with loops or carabiners to securely attach the bag to a harness or rope.
- Handles and Straps: Small carry handles or adjustable straps for easy transport.
6. Drainage
- Drain holes at the bottom to let water out after wet expeditions, reducing the risk of tool corrosion.
7. Visibility
- Bright colors or reflective details make the bag easier to locate in dark or cluttered environments.
