does anyone know what type of Velcro Zpacks uses for their packs and dry bags? I’ve seen it on other products from different companies but not sure what it’s called exactly. I don’t think it’s Omni tape because from its description it contains both hook and loop together. The Zpacks stuff has a hook and a loop side. Is it snag free Velcro? Not sure because when I looked it up it doesn’t say there are separate hook and loop pieces.

Thanks

Duh, I think that’s it on that page. I looked earlier and didn’t see it. Thanks

I love that just about everything ZPacks uses to manufacture their gear, they also sell “in bulk”. Smart business move.

DIYGearSupply sells it under the name “union tape” and it can also be found by searching OmniTape (velcro brand).
