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.
Yarn Size and Fabric Density
DLT-5151 specifies a 1000D×1300D polyester base at 18×17threads/inch. Denier identifies the size of each yarn system; thread count describes its arrangement within the fabric. The PVC coating covers and works with that reinforcement. When a cutting plan is developed, mark the fabric directions so that material testing and panel orientation use the same reference. The listed 610gsm belongs to the whole coated sheet.
Coating, Joining and Load Paths
Hot-air welding, high-frequency welding and sewing are listed processing options for DLT-5151. Their suitability should be established with representative seams using the chosen material configuration. The exact coating application method is not stated in the supplied record. Tensile, tearing and peeling figures are marked as targets. Lifting capacity belongs to the verified finished tarp assembly, including its straps and their attachment details.
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-5151 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 Fabric: The Textile Behind a Lifting Tarp
DLT-5151 is PVC coated fabric supplied as roll material for fabrication. The stated reinforcement is 1000D×1300D polyester with a density of 18×17threads/inch. PVC forms the coating around this textile base. The two yarn directions are specified separately, which makes fabric orientation relevant when panels and reinforcement pieces are placed in a cutting plan.
The listed mass is 610gsm, also shown as 18oz/yd². This is the area weight of the finished coated material. The denier figures describe yarn size, and density describes the yarn count per inch. Neither is a substitute for a finished-sheet mechanical test. The specification lists tensile, tear and peeling values as targets; these should remain target requirements until supported by the agreed test evidence.
PVC coating joins a flexible polymer surface to a reinforcing fabric. The supplied record does not identify a particular coating machine. It does list hot-air welding, high-frequency welding and sewing as processing routes. The fabricator should evaluate the selected route on the actual material, including overlaps and any webbing or reinforcement incorporated in the finished assembly.
Black is listed, with custom colours and order-specific widths and roll lengths available. For a proposed lifting tarp, the overall load path includes the fabric, seams, lifting straps and their connections. The finished assembly needs its own design and verification. A roll-material target strength cannot be used on its own to assign a safe working load.
