Description

Light, plush and warm, the 3-inch-thick REI Co-op Helix Insulated air pad will make you happy twice every trip—first when you carry it on your back and again when you hit it at bedtime.

Features
  • Three-inch thickness and an even, gridded weld pattern gives you a flat, mattresslike surface thick enough to keep you from touching the ground
  • Dual reflective layer insulation technology gives you a warm night's sleep without adding weight to the pad
  • Dual custom valves make inflation and deflation quick and easy, and work seamlessly with the included pump sack
  • New interior baffle design and weld shape reduce internal stresses which improves pad durability and longevity
  • Softly tapered shape provides maximum sleeping surface while fitting easily in trapezoidal tents
  • This pad has an R-value of 4.9, which makes it best for adventures in cold weather; it provides considerable insulation from ground temperature
  • Also a good choice for those that just prefer a warm night's sleep no matter what
  • Most sleeping pads we sell range from 1.0 (good for warm weather) to 5.5+ (for use in extreme cold); the higher the R-value, the more insulated the pad
  • Includes inflation pump sack, field repair kit and stuff sack
  • R-value tested according to the ASTM F3340 standard
