I'm looking for a way to upgrade the chain/cap. Does anyone know if the Nalgene Black Loop-Top Lid, Narrow Mouth will fit the threads of this canteen?

I'm pretty sure it won't fit. I just removed my chains and didn't replace them with anything.

I replaced my cap with a GI issue WW2 cap/ chain combination I bought off Ebay. The threads are an exact match.

Hi Gnome, you should be good to go on the text books and (light)jacket. As to the question about the nalgene bottle, the quart would not fit but the 24oz. should. But let me ask, why are you using a bottle when the pack accommodates up to 100oz bladder? You need to measure the books and then check w/ the measurements I list for you here; Main Compartment: 17.5"(H) x 14"(W) x 6.5"(D)Upper Front Pouch: 5.5"(H) x 9"(W) x 2"(D)Lower Front Pouch: 8"(H) x 9"(W) x 2.5"(D)Approximate Overall Capacity: 1950 cu. in. / 32 LHydration: Fits up to 100 oz / 3L Reservoir (sold separately). Hope this helps.Yours, John Hi Gnome, you should be good to go on the text books and (light)jacket. As to the question about the nalgene bottle, the quart would not fit but the 24oz. should.

Obtain a short piece (1" long or so) of 1/4" diameter copper tubing reamed out to exactly fit over the TC shaft. Then clamp the Cu tubing in a standard brass compression fitting (with the TC installed, when the ferule collapses it will also tighten the Cu around the TC) which will usually have 1/4" NPT threads. Then use either a reducing bushing or bell reducer to adapt this assembly to the 1/2" NPT of the brew plumbing. I've done this 4 times with no problems.

I have a 32 oz wide mouth design nalgene bottle and it's worked fine. The lid is held in by presser and therefor it is possible to force the lid into the bottle. I have never had ANY issues with the lid accidentally falling into the bottle

I purchased one of these canteens and am very happy with the product. It was used all winter while hunting/snowshoeing. However, I have not owned or examined closely any origional military canteens so am unable to comment on true size.

However...I slightly modified mine....it comes with Phillips head screws to fasten the cover...I took those bolts to the hardware store..got the same thread pitch in stainless steel and 1/2 in. I think...that way my lid is secured with bolts instead of screws.

I just bought the Klean Kanteen Wide Insulated Bottle with Stainless Steel Loop Cap (Brushed Stainless, 20-Ounce) and this bottle brush. When I place the bottle brush in my Kleen Kanteen, the entire black handle sicks out. So, no. Not too short, just right,

Just barely - I have a Nalgene as well and had to turn the set screw all the way out. However even doing that the bottle fits fairly tight. Pity because it's a nice cage. One solution would be to take it to ACE hardware and get a slightly longer set screw.

is that a brand? give a brand or part number or something and i would know. my point in my review is that even though it is metal it is the same dimensions as the plastic nalgene so all my 3rd party components for standard nalgene widemouth bottles (drinking tube attachments, some filter brands etc) fit. i was even impressed that the thickness of the metal walls isnt a factor it hold the same amount of water as its plastic counterpart.

Hi there, It depends on what kind of water bottle you have. Is it a screw-on type or a snap-on type cap? Please tell us what brand of bottle you have so we can do a little research for you. Sincerely,

No, the cap for the light cap is much larger than the standard nalgene opening. The bottles are about the same size but no way it would fit. (Love the lightcap btw, bought it for the hubby for xmas, basically his favorite gift!)

It is O.K.and sometimes a hard to find item. Strap that holds cap to canteen is included.BUT the "tubes" on each end are NOT included.Yuo should be able to rig these up - I had no problem doing so

I think I understand you; since the tubing is pretty long just go up higher and cut across the tube to make a new nose for the stainless steel piece to fit. Hope this helps

Not that I have found. I bought the black flip top accessory to replace the threaded lid that is on it when purchased, but I use both. I really like this product and would recommend it to anyone!

Aloha no from Ewa Beach, HI, Jeannie! I, too, have a standard (narrow) mouth 21 oz but could not find a flip top. I notice the 21 oz cap screws INSIDE the flask puka. All of the wide mouth lids screw OUTSIDE the pukas. So I ended up buying a 32 oz wide mouth hydroflask. Sorry I couldn't help. May you have a blessed Memorial Day :)

No, it will not. The mouth of the included bottle is much larger than a typical wide-mouth bottle, and the lid is not interchangeable with any popular brand to my knowledge. It's also worth noting that the base of the Lightcap 300 bottle is larger in diameter as well. It will fit in carriers like the Condor H2O pouch (http://www.amazon.com/Condor-H2O-Pouch-Black-4Dia-Inch/dp/B005LY4SLC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1393452645&sr=8-1&keywords=condor+bottle+carrier), but will not fit inside my glacier cup (http://www.amazon.com/GSI-Outdoors-Glacier-Stainless-Bottle/dp/B001LF3IB6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1393452449&sr=8-1&keywords=glacier+cup).

Well it threads onto nalgene bottles, but can fill anything that accepts water. There are 2 coarse threaded female outlets on the bottom of the unit (2.5" and 1.5") that can accept bottles or___. There is also a tapered nipple that will accept tubing.
