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.
  • BlockoutOptionalAvailable as an optional configuration. Restricts light passing through the fabric for roof, curtain or cover panels that need an opaque finish and greater control of the light behind the surface.

Mass, Strength and Construction

The 1100gsm specification measures how much a square metre of DLT-5707 weighs. It includes PVC and the 1000D polyester reinforcement, without stating their individual proportions. Tensile and tear results provide different information about mechanical behaviour. Using the listed 4000/4000N/5cm tensile and 600/500N/5cm tear figures avoids assuming a performance increase simply because a material has a greater finished mass.

Continuous Faces Over a Woven Core

Knife coating forms the PVC faces from paste applied to the polyester base. The blade meters the coating before heat forms the finished layer. Glossy or matte selection changes the exposed finish, while blockout is an optional construction addition. Confirm which version is being sampled and use it for seam trials. Reinforcement and fastening details need their own review at the cover fabrication stage.

Application requirements — Truck Covers

Specify the finished cover dimensions, fixing arrangement, folding or rolling pattern and operating environment. Review tensile and tear properties, coating adhesion, abrasion at contact areas and the strength of seams and reinforced edges. State the required surface finish, flexibility and weathering conditions, and assess a sample in the proposed assembled construction.

Finished Flatbed-Tarp Configurations

The following dimensions describe a flatbed lumber tarp. Side curtains and roll-over roofs use their own body and hardware drawings.

Finished-Product Configuration Examples

Flat Size Example24 × 27 ft (approximately 7.32 × 8.23 m)
Side Drop Example8 ft (approximately 2.44 m)
End Flap Example8 × 8 ft (approximately 2.44 × 2.44 m)
Panel SeamsHeat-sealed body seams
Edge ConstructionDouble-stitched hems reinforced with 2 in (approximately 51 mm) webbing
Eyelet Spacing Example2 ft (approximately 610 mm) around the specified edges
Tie-Down ArrangementThree D-ring rows with protective flaps in this configuration
Fit And RestraintSet the cover around the actual load dimensions; cargo restraint is specified separately

Construction Details

Reinforced Hem

The webbing runs within the hem to support the eyelets and stitched edge. Confirm corner and end-flap reinforcement on the finished drawing.

Protected D-Ring Attachment

D-rings are attached through reinforced areas, with flaps separating hooks from the tarp face. Choose ring positions to suit the load height and tie-down route.

Heavy Duty PVC Tarpaulin: What the Weight Represents

DLT-5707 is listed as an 1100gsm heavy duty PVC tarpaulin with a 1000×1000D polyester base in a 30×30 construction. Knife-coated PVC covers the two faces of the reinforcement. The weight belongs to the complete composite, including its textile and coating. It should be read with the base specification instead of being used as a stand-alone measure of strength.

The woven core supports the sheet in tension. PVC paste is applied to that core, metered by a blade and heated to form the coating. This manufacturing route creates continuous outer faces while retaining textile reinforcement inside. The listed 140N/5cm adhesion concerns the connection between these components and is separate from the strength of an intact fabric strip.

Tensile strength is listed at 4000/4000N/5cm and tear strength at 600/500N/5cm. An 1100gsm weight does not imply that these values exceed every lighter model. The stated results should guide comparisons, together with the relevant test method and a sample of the selected construction. No thickness is specified for this model in the current table.

Roll widths range from 1.05m to 3.2m, with 50m or 100m lengths. Glossy or matte faces and an optional blockout layer can be discussed before conversion. For stockpile cover panels, consider the planned seams, contact surfaces and anchoring arrangement. The material is a component of the cover; panel design and site conditions determine the demands placed on the completed assembly.
