Features

It is a challenge to describe all the features and possibilities of the SCARAB LT, as it is highly versatile and modular. But let us start somewhere, and tell a bit of this particular configuration with the actual PC, the front flap, and the SCARAB cummerbund.

SCARAB LT plate carrier

The SCARAB LT plate carrier features narrow ULTRAcomp shoulder straps with a patented D-ring swivel connection. This mechanism allows for the plate carrier to sit correctly and comfortably on any user, regardless of neck thickness or shoulder broadness. The shoulder straps are adjustable for length and have a padded sleeve that can also be used for cable and hydration tube routing.

Front flap

The front flap attaches inside the kangaroo pouch with Velcro. The front flap has Velcro hook panel on the backside – this will cover the cummerbund ends. The front flap has a 3 x 6 PALS webbing on the exterior with loop Velcro. The front flap is detachable.

SCARAB Cummerbund

The SCARAB LT cummerbund is a lightweight and breathable cummerbund with inside and outside PALS webbing. There is breathable mesh fabric between the PALS webbing rows. The cummerbund attaches to the front of the plate carrier by Velcro, and its length is adjusted with One-Wrap fingers running through the openings in the rear plate bag. Each finger can be adjusted separately to optimize the fit for all body types and gear setups. The One-Wraps are joined with the cummerbund by elastic loops which give additional comfort and mobility.
