Product Features

  • AntistaticHelps manage electrostatic charge build-up in the fabric, giving manufacturers a material option for assemblies with specified static-control requirements.
  • Flame retardantA flame-retardant formulation for fabricators supplying projects with defined fire-behaviour requirements. Select the grade around the test method required for the finished application.
  • UV resistantUV-resistant treatment addresses sunlight exposure in outdoor fabric panels, making weathering requirements part of the material choice from the start.

Clear Film Within A Fabric Assembly

The clear field of DLT-7005 is a single PVC film layer. It has a different construction from the textile surrounding a sprayhood window, and the interface between them deserves its own sample review. Use the intended binding width and corner shape during fabrication. Inspect the joint and viewing area together, because a well-presented flat film swatch does not establish the appearance of the completed window.

Gauge, Formulation And Handling

DLT-7005 is listed at 0.5mm with a 20-60PHR formulation range. Thickness describes the film section; PHR describes a formulation ratio. Agree the required flexibility using a physical sample and assess it in the proposed storage arrangement. Any requested weathering or cold-related performance should be checked for the supplied configuration, with suitable evidence instead of being inferred from the marine application term.

Application requirements — Clear Tent Windows

Specify window or panel dimensions, thickness, viewing requirements, framing and the normal folding or rolling pattern. Review optical appearance, flexibility, surface marking and the edge or seam construction. Confirm the temperature range, cleaning method and any specified fire behaviour on the selected grade.

Finished Clear-Panel Specifications

Measure clear enclosure panels on the supporting frame. The panel outline, fixing edges and opening arrangement determine the cutting pattern.

Construction Details

Border And Attachment

The facing carries the zipper or fasteners around the transparent area. Match its outline to the frame before cutting the clear panel.

Roll-Up Section

A zippered opening can roll up and be secured with straps. Protect zipper edges with flaps where the chosen design requires them.

Marine Clear Vinyl And Its Film Construction

DLT-7005 is clear PVC film listed for flexible transparent panels. It is made by calendering with a single-layer structure and a 0.5mm gauge. Water quench is identified as a process feature. There is no reinforcing textile in the stated construction, so a sprayhood window is fabricated by attaching the clear film to the surrounding assembly rather than treating it as a coated woven cloth.

The film is described as super clear or crystal clear and is available up to a listed 2.8m width. Calendering forms the softened PVC compound between rolls; subsequent cooling is part of establishing the sheet form. The catalogue appearance terms are useful for initial selection, while an approved swatch establishes the particular viewing effect expected from the supplied material. Measured haze or optical requirements need their own agreed values.

DLT-7005 lists a 20-60PHR formulation range. PHR concerns plasticizer content relative to resin, and the selected formulation should be linked to the required hand. A window that will be folded or rolled needs review as a fabricated panel, including its edge and storage arrangement. The 0.5mm gauge does not establish low-temperature behaviour, UV service life or resistance to a particular cleaning product.

For sprayhood window panels, use the actual surrounding fabric, binding and planned joining method in a trial. Check the window after assembly for local distortion and assess the seam where materials meet. Identify the exposure and care requirements in the order so the proposed film configuration can be reviewed for the intended marine use.
