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.

Layer Adhesion Has Its Own Measure

The two peel values listed for DLT-5832 concern separation within the composite. They should be assessed alongside tensile and tear measurements rather than used as substitutes for them. The PVC faces and woven base must remain bonded as the sheet is cut and handled. The strength of a completed bag joint also depends on the joining process and geometry, so evaluate a representative assembly separately.

Building Protective Bag Details

Protective bags often place folds, openings and hardware close together. DLT-5832 can be reviewed as a panel material within that complete construction. Prepare trial overlaps using the selected welding or sewing method, then add the intended fastening and reinforcement pieces. This shows how the 650gsm composite handles through several layers and helps the converter agree the panel sequence before committing to the full production pattern.

Application requirements — Waterproof Bags

Specify the finished size, contents, carried load, closure design and the way handles or straps attach. Review tear propagation, abrasion, coating adhesion and the reinforcement around seams and attachment points. Agree the intended water-exposure level and a finished-bag test method rather than inferring protection from the sheet material alone.

Finished Roll-Top Dry-Bag Configurations

These dimensions describe closed roll-top bags. Leave sufficient fabric above the usable compartment to form the closure.

Water-Exposure CheckConfirm the finished closure and seam test; a roll-top bag is not automatically suitable for immersion

Construction Details

Roll-Top Opening

The stiffener helps form an even roll across the opening. Usable volume is measured with the required closure rolls already made.

Bottom Panel And Loop

The base and its joint carry repeated packing contact. A bottom loop can assist holding or securing the bag, with its attachment assessed separately from the body fabric.

PVC Bag Fabric: Bonding, Reinforcement and Panel Joining

DLT-5832 is a 650gsm PVC fabric for bags, built around a woven polyester reinforcement. Its listed layer arrangement is PVC, polyester base and PVC. The base uses 500D × 500D yarn at 18 × 17 threads per inch. The resulting sheet therefore combines a directional textile network with continuous polymer faces. Its mass includes the complete assembly and should not be read as a separate measurement of either the coating or the yarn.

The sheet can be fabricated by hot-air welding, high-frequency welding or sewing according to the product record. Those are joining choices for converting roll material into protective bag panels, not proof of a particular manufacturing route for the fabric. Overlap layout, corners and edge finishing should be developed around the actual bag construction. A seam next to a rigid fitting will experience different bending and contact from a long joint across an open panel.

The listed tensile values are 1500/1100N per 5cm; the peel values are 120/110N per 5cm in the two fabric directions. Peel adhesion is useful for understanding the bond within the composite and is distinct from the strength of an assembled weld. The available width is 1.05–3.2m, with 50–500m roll lengths listed. For a protective bag, compare a finished corner and fastening patch alongside the flat sheet. This makes it easier to judge folding bulk, surface handling and the relationship between panel material and its attachments before finalising the production pattern.
