Canadian Army Rucksack / Cargo Pack / Pack Board Frame




These were manufactured in 1998-2001 to carry items for the ERYX system. It is essentially a very well made rucksack frame that doubles as a pack board / cargo carrier. You can mount a rucksack bag that you have, or use it the way it is and strap your heavy cargo to it. It is adjustable for any body size as the shoulder harness and hip belt system can slide up or down in channels in the frame. They lock into place by 2 screws and a sliding bracket.

Canadian Army rucksack / Cargo Pack / Pack Board frame.This thing is super tough, you wil have a hard time breaking it - even if you try ! It is well built with high density plastic that is flexible and does not get brittle when cold. These frames were designed to operate in extreme hot and extreme cold temperatures.These were manufactured in 1998-2001 to carry items for the ERYX system. It is essentially a very well made rucksack frame that doubles as a pack board / cargo carrier. You can mount just about any rucksack / cargo bag to it (creativity is the key sometimes). If compared to the US army Molle II this frame is much stronger and similar in size. The Molle II clips will fit into this frame, the fit is not exact but functional. It has enough loop holes in the frame to accommodate just about any shoulder/waist belt, or main bag.It has 96 holes for straps / clips, a carry handle on the top, the frame is contoured, and is constructed of a high density plastic material (somewhat flexible and very strong - tough to break)

  1. This system is being phased out in 2016. Curious whether this will be dumped on the surplus market, whether it already was years ago, or whether they’ll retain it for something else. Love the look of that frame.
