Vanquest FATPack-Pro LARGE A-Side Insert

What size elastic loops does the Vanquest FATPack-Pro LARGE A-Side Insert have?

The LARGE A-Side Insert features two large-format elastic loops (7.5" W) for full-size chest seals, pocket BVMs, large dressings, and emergency blankets, plus four medium elastic loops (4.5" W) for trauma dressings, burn dressings, compact chest seals, and similar flat-pack items. The wide elastic webbing provides secure retention without closures.

How does the FATPack-Pro A-Side Insert attach to a bag?

The insert has hook-material backing that attaches directly to any loop-lined bag surface — providing strong, repositionable attachment that holds the insert flat against the interior or exterior panel. Rear hooks allow secondary attachment points for additional security. The insert can be torn away (removed) and used as a stand-alone deploy surface or transferred to a different loop-lined bag.

Why is the Vanquest FATPack-Pro Insert colored orange?

High-visibility orange is intentional: when a bag is opened under stress, the orange insert immediately draws the eye to the medical supplies, reducing search time in high-pressure situations. This is especially valuable when multiple bags or compartments may be present and the operator needs to identify medical supplies instantly.

What is DWR coating and why does it matter for a medical insert?

DWR (Durable Water Repellent) is a coating applied to the 210-D ripstop nylon fabric that causes water to bead and roll off the surface rather than soaking in. For a medical organization insert, DWR provides moisture protection for the medical supplies held in the elastic loops — preventing wetting damage to sealed items during field use in rain, spray, or humid environments.

What is the difference between the LARGE and SMALL FATPack-Pro A-Side Inserts?

The LARGE A-Side Insert (SKU: 90FPP-LA01-OR) features 2 large loops (7.5" W) and 4 medium loops (4.5" W), designed for larger packs and more comprehensive medical supply organization. The SMALL A-Side Insert (SKU: 90FPP-SA01-OR) features 3 medium loops (4.75" W) and dimensions of 11.5" H × 5" W, designed for smaller bags or more compact medical loadouts. Both are hi-vis orange DWR ripstop nylon with hook backing.

What packs is the FATPack-Pro LARGE A-Side Insert (LA01) compatible with?

The LA01 attaches to any loop-lined (hook-and-loop loop surface) interior. It is the factory A-Side Insert for the FATPack-Pro LARGE and is compatible with any Vanquest pack featuring a loop-lined main compartment sized to accommodate 13" (H) × 6" (W), as well as third-party loop-lined bags. It is not sized for the FATPack-Pro SMALL, which uses the smaller SA01 (11.5" H × 5" W).

What material is the LA01 made from?

The LA01 uses 210-D Ripstop nylon with DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating in high-visibility orange for immediate visual ID of staged items in low light. Elastic bands are 2"-wide for the large loops and 3"-wide for the medium loops, providing secure retention across different item sizes. Stitching is high-tensile-strength bonded nylon thread with Bartack and Box-and-X reinforcement.

Which TCCC supplies fit the LA01’s 7.5” and 4.5” elastic loops?

The two 7.5" large loops (2"-wide elastic bands) are sized for full-size chest seals (HyFin Vent standard, flat-packed), pocket bag valve masks, large hemostatic gauze rolls, and folded emergency blankets. The four 4.5" medium loops (3"-wide elastic bands) stage CAT or SOFTT-W tourniquets, compressed hemostatic gauze, Israeli bandages, trauma pads, and nasopharyngeal airways. Both loop sizes hold items for single-motion retrieval without unzipping, supporting rapid Care Under Fire access.
