Product Features
- Flame retardantOptionalAvailable as an optional configuration. A flame-retardant formulation for fabricators supplying projects with defined fire-behaviour requirements. Select the grade around the test method required for the finished application.
Woven Core Between PVC Films
The middle layer of DLT-5101 is woven polyester. Its yarns reinforce the sheet along the fabric directions, while the films cover the two faces. The listed 300gsm is the mass of the complete composite per square metre. It does not identify how much of that mass belongs to polyester or PVC. Those components and their bond should be considered together when reviewing a sample.
Lamination and Surface Selection
Lamination joins a film layer to a textile substrate. DLT-5101 lists a PVC film on each side of the base, producing a three-layer sheet. Glossy and matte are available surface descriptions, with the actual finish agreed for the order. Trial pieces should use that chosen finish, since a different surface can change the behaviour of printing, bonding or welding during fabrication.
Application requirements — Inflatable Play Equipment
Specify the structure dimensions, panel function, operating pressure, seam design and anchoring arrangement. Review tensile and tear properties, flexing and the integrity of welded or sewn connections. Confirm whether the construction needs an airtight skin or continuous airflow. Assess leakage, loading and any destination-market requirements on the finished inflatable structure.
Finished Bounce-House Configurations
These configurations describe continuous-air bounce houses. Airtight inflatables need a different seam and pressure design.
| Specification | Configuration |
|---|---|
| Square Footprints | 13 × 13 ft or 15 × 15 ft (approximately 3.96 × 3.96 m or 4.57 × 4.57 m) |
| Overall Height Example | 13 ft (approximately 3.96 m) for the square configurations |
| Air Supply | Continuous blower operation; match the blower and intake arrangement to the complete unit |
| Panel Assembly | Sewn body panels, with double or quadruple stitching used in commercial constructions |
| Wear Areas | Additional reinforcement around the jumping surface, entrances and other high-traffic areas |
| Anchoring Connections | Tie-down straps attached through reinforced fabric areas; layout and restraint loads follow the finished-unit design |
| Enclosure And Access | Mesh viewing panels, a defined entrance and accessible inflation/deflation openings |
| Finished-Unit Selection | Confirm usable play area, user limits, installation clearance and operating instructions with the unit manufacturer |
Construction Details
Reinforced Strap Attachment
An extra layer of PVC fabric spreads the attachment over a larger area. Review the strap, stitching and reinforcing patch together when sampling the assembly.
Air Intake And Deflation
Intake sleeves connect the blower to the inflated body. The finished layout needs access to its closure flaps and deflation openings for packing and inspection.

Bouncy Castle Fabric: Layers and Handling
DLT-5101 is a 300gsm bouncy castle fabric with a listed thickness of 0.3mm. Its three-layer construction places a woven polyester base between two PVC films. The polyester forms the reinforcing textile within the sheet, while PVC provides the exposed surfaces. This distinction helps explain why a flexible sheet can contain a load-carrying fabric even though the yarns are covered when viewed from outside.
The construction is described as laminated, and the technology field lists lamination/coating. In a laminated composite, films are brought together with the textile to form a bonded sheet. The bond between film and fabric is a separate material characteristic from the strength of the woven core. A smooth face or a heavier sheet alone does not establish the quality of that bond or the strength of a finished seam.
Glossy and matte surfaces are listed for this model. The choice changes how the coloured panels reflect light, so colour and finish should be reviewed together under the lighting intended for the finished inflatable. For a multicoloured castle, the approved sample can define one panel colour within the overall design. The surface selected for production should also be used for any joining or artwork trial.
Roll material is listed in widths from 1.05m to 3.2m and a 50m roll length. Panel nesting should account for the fabric direction and seam allowances. Finished inflatable performance also depends on the panel pattern, seams and inflation arrangement; those details need evaluation on the fabricated unit.
