Self-inflating mattress FIT 480 - ultra light
The self-inflating mattress FIT 480 is an ideal solution for people who are looking for comfortable and lightweight camping gear. The self-inflating mat is covered with an ultra-light material reinforced with a ripstop weave. The underside of the mattress is black, while the deep, dark green color on top discreetly blends in with the surroundings.
The filling consists of resilient, perforated foam with a density of only 12kg/m3, which, combined with the anatomical shape, ultimately results in a weight of only 480 grams at a thickness of 2,5cm and a length of 185cm.
BUSHMEN Travel Gear FIT mattresses are about 25% lighter than sleeping pads of the same size and about 20% lighter than other ultralight self-inflating mats with the same parameters.
BUSHMEN Travel Gear FIT self-inflating mats are among the lightest self-inflating mattresses available on the market.
"FIT" means FIT
The “FIT” in the name refers to the anatomical shape of the mattress. The wider upper part of the mattress gradually narrows, which, together with the rounded corners, saves about 15% of weight compared to mats of similar dimensions but with a rectangular shape. The body shape adaptation ensures a comfortable sleep while maintaining the minimum weight of the mattress.
Comfort up to 2C
The insulation coefficient, also known as the R-value, is a parameter that informs about the ability of a mattress to minimize heat loss. The thickness of the FIT 480 mattress is 2.5cm. This provides an R-value insulation coefficient of 2.1.
This means that mattresses with this R-value are suitable for use in temperatures of 2°C and above. It provides thermal comfort during most vacation trips.
On the ground and in the hammock
FIT mattresses are suitable both as insulation inside a Bivy bag (FIT 480 and FIT 600) or a tent, as well as for use in a hammock. Thanks to the rounded corners, the hammock can perfectly keep the mattress in place under the weight of the user, even when the sleeping person is moving around.
The valve
The mattresses are equipped with well-known and tested one-way valves with a fast air release. This design ensures that both inflating and deflating the mattress is extremely easy.
Transportation
When packed, the FIT 480 travel mattress takes up very little space. Rolled up and secured with a velcro strap, the FIT 480 mattress stored in the bag has dimensions of only 12x26cm. Thanks to such compact dimensions, it can be easily taken on any trip.
Pump-bag
For those who care about hygiene and do not want to inflate the mattress with their mouths, or simply want to speed up the self-inflation process, we suggest purchasing a Pump-bag that is fully compatible with our mattresses. It is a waterproof bag equipped with a valve for inflation. With it, you can easily and quickly add extra air, and during the hike, it will protect your belongings from getting wet.
WARNING!
- Contact with sharp objects may damage the mattress.
- Contact with temperatures above 100°C may cause damage to the mattress.
- Do not expose a fully inflated mattress to direct sunlight – the increase in pressure due to the heating of the mattress may damage it.
Please read the user manual before use.
