Jack's Plastic Welding | Silverback Paco Pad

Experience legendary comfort with the Silverback Pad, the premium 4-inch self-inflating sleeping pad trusted by river guides and backcountry campers for over two decades. At 78" x 26" x 4", this is the thickest, most luxurious pad in the Paco Pad lineup—engineered with ultra-dense foam that cradles your hips and shoulders while keeping you completely off the ground, even on rocky terrain.

Sleep Like You're Home 

The Silverback's secret is its high-density soft urethane foam with an R-value of 3.42 per inch, delivering exceptional insulation against cold ground and unmatched cushioning. Once you sleep on a Silverback, you'll understand why so many customers keep extras at home as guest bedding. The 4-inch thickness provides hotel-quality comfort whether you're camped on a sandbar, parked at a trailhead, or lounging on your raft between rapids.

Effortless Setup, Bombproof Design

Pop the buckles, open the dual water-tight air valves, and watch the Silverback inflate itself—no pump, no effort, no fuss. The pad's high-density foam is engineered to withstand hundreds of roll cycles without breaking down, and the 18 oz. PVC-coated polyester shell laughs off cactus needles, sharp rocks, and years of hard use. Even if a valve is left open or you get a small puncture, you'll still sleep soundly—the foam does the work, not the air.

More Than Just Sleep

River runners know the Silverback as the ultimate multi-tool: it pads hard spots on rafts to protect passengers during rapids, insulates coolers to keep ice longer, and transforms gear boxes into comfortable lounging platforms during long float days. Most boaters leave their Silverbacks unrolled on the boat all day, turning utilitarian cargo into premium seating.
