APPLICATIONS:
Product Features
- AntistaticOptionalAvailable as an optional configuration. Helps manage electrostatic charge build-up in the fabric, giving manufacturers a material option for assemblies with specified static-control requirements.
- 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.
- Mildew resistantOptionalAvailable as an optional configuration. A mildew-resistant formulation helps address surface growth in damp or humid service conditions and during storage between uses.
What the 20×23 Count Describes
The 20×23threads/inch value for DLT-5152 describes its polyester base fabric. Together with the 1000D×1300D yarn specification, it provides more construction information than area weight alone. The finished 680gsm includes PVC as well as textile. Sample evaluation should therefore consider the reinforcement, the coating and their bond, with fabric directions retained in any cut pieces used for seam or connection trials.
Processing a Reinforcement Component
DLT-5152 lists welding and sewing as available processing routes. A representative reinforcement trial should include the same sheet, adjacent layers and attachment layout proposed for the finished tarp. The coating-production method itself is not specified as knife coating. Confirm the selected construction and inspect the completed join before relying on it in an assembly. Listed tensile, tear and peel values remain targets pending the agreed evidence.
Application requirements — Lifting Tarps
Specify the panel length and width, the material being collected, the proposed load and the lifting arrangement. Review fabric tensile and tear properties, coating adhesion and the reinforced connections between the sheet, webbing and lifting points. Working-load capacity must be established for the completed lifting assembly; fabric weight and target fabric strengths alone do not define a rated lifting capacity.
Typical finished lifting-tarp specifications
Published snow-lifting tarp configurations provide the following reference sizes and construction details. These describe finished products; the final specification follows the intended application.
| Specification | Finished-product reference |
|---|---|
| Finished size, laid flat | 6 × 6 m; 20 × 20 ft (6.10 × 6.10 m); 25 × 25 ft (7.62 × 7.62 m); 30 × 30 ft (9.14 × 9.14 m) |
| Lifting points | Four corner lifting loops in the reference configurations |
| Webbing arrangement | Continuous corner-to-corner webbing sewn into the tarp assembly |
| Webbing width | 2 in (51 mm), with 3 in (76 mm) options in published snow-tarp examples |
| Lifting-loop length | 12 in (305 mm) in the reference configuration; confirm the finished loop dimensions for the lifting connection |
| Corner reinforcement | Additional corner reinforcement with sewn carrying straps |
| Typical use | Laid out on construction working surfaces before snowfall, then lifted by the corner loops for snow removal |
| Working-load rating | Confirm the rating for the complete tarp, its lifting arrangement and the intended load with the finished-product manufacturer |
Reference dimensions and component options are for application planning. Confirm the specification and working-load rating for the completed tarp.
How the fabric fits into a lifting tarp
DLT-5152 supplies the coated panel material. The example below separates that panel from the continuous load-bearing webbing, lifting loops and reinforced sewn connections added by the finished-tarp manufacturer.
A · Coated fabric panel. The PVC surface and woven polyester base form the flexible sheet. Panel tensile and tear behaviour are material properties, separate from the completed lifting system.
B · Continuous load-bearing webbing. The example route connects opposing corners through the underside. Webbing capacity and its connection to the sheet are specified by the finished-tarp manufacturer.
C · Loops and reinforced sewn connections. Loads enter the lifting arrangement through these connections. The webbing specification, reinforcement and stitching pattern must be verified together in the assembled tarp.
Example construction principles, not a production drawing. Loop count, webbing route, reinforcement, dimensions and safe working load follow the verified finished-tarp design.

PVC Coated Cloth: A Denser Reinforcing Base
DLT-5152 is PVC coated cloth made with a 1000D×1300D polyester base and a listed density of 20×23threads/inch. Its finished area weight is 680gsm, shown alongside 20oz/yd². The specification identifies a textile-reinforced material: PVC provides the outer coating and polyester forms the internal fabric that carries tension through the sheet.
Yarn denier and fabric density describe different aspects of that reinforcement. The denier pair identifies yarn sizes in the two directions, while the density pair records how many threads occupy an inch. The finished composite also depends on coating adhesion. That bond is assessed separately from tensile strength, since pulling a strip and separating coating from fabric examine different behaviours.
The listed joining methods are hot-air welding, high-frequency welding and sewing. These are fabrication options, rather than a detailed description of how the original coating was applied. For a reinforcement component in a proposed lifting tarp, assess a trial that includes the overlap, attachment construction and adjacent material. A flat sample alone does not reproduce the loads at a finished connection.
Yellow is the stated colour, and custom colours, widths and roll lengths can be discussed. The mechanical values in the record are labelled targets. Agree the test method and evidence required before using them in a purchase specification. The finished lifting assembly still needs verification of its complete load path, including webbing, seams and connection points.
