APPLICATIONS:
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.
Interpreting the 650gsm Specification
The 650gsm figure for DLT-5204 covers the finished PVC-and-polyester composite. It does not split the mass into film and textile. The 1000D yarn and 20×20 construction provide additional information about the base. Compare these fields together when selecting samples, then use the appropriate tests for properties such as tear resistance or adhesion. Similar total weights do not guarantee identical material builds.
Preparing the Roof Material Configuration
DLT-5204 can be supplied with glossy or matte surfaces, and an extra blockout layer is available. Agree these details before testing a seam or applying artwork. Lamination forms the original film-and-textile sheet; fabrication forms the roof panel from that sheet. Review both the material bond and the completed join, using the configuration intended for the final roof and its supporting details.
Application requirements — Tent Roofs & Sidewalls
Specify the covered span, panel dimensions, support arrangement, installed tension and exposure. Review tensile and tear properties, coating adhesion, seam performance and the reinforcement around edges and attachment points. Set weathering, cleaning and fire-behaviour requirements around the finished structure and destination; the fabric data sheet does not establish structural wind or snow capacity.
Finished Frame-Tent Configurations
Roof covers are made to the tent frame and its bay spacing. Overall tent dimensions do not equal the flat cutting dimensions of a roof panel.
| Specification | Configuration |
|---|---|
| Small Frame-Tent Span Examples | 4 m, 5 m, 8 m or 10 m |
| Bay Spacing Examples | 3 m or 5 m, depending on the frame series |
| Overall Length | Repeated bays; confirm the minimum assembly and any end-bay changes for the selected frame |
| Side Height Examples | Approximately 2.3 m or 3 m in modular event-tent configurations |
| Roof Arrangement | Separate roof, gable and sidewall panels fitted to the frame geometry |
| Roof-Edge Connection | Keder edges retained in frame channels; bead and channel dimensions must match |
| Sidewall Arrangement | Divided wall panels, with ground bars or the selected frame system's bottom restraint |
| Site Design | Confirm frame anchoring, drainage and the complete structure's wind and snow requirements before fabrication |
Construction Details
Keder Edge And Frame Channel
The fabric edge carries a bead that slides into the frame channel. Specify the finished bead diameter and edge construction from the actual profile drawing.
Roof Panel And Bay Layout
A roof panel follows the pitch between frame members. Its finished length includes the attachment and tensioning details; fabric-roll width alone cannot define the cover size.

For tarpaulin fabric rolls, share the roof-panel plan, required finish and any additional blockout or fire-performance requirements.
Tarpaulin Fabric: Base Cloth, Film and Finished Weight
DLT-5204 is tarpaulin fabric with a 1000D polyester base described as 20×20. A PVC film on each side forms the stated three-layer laminated sheet. The finished specification lists 650gsm and 0.51mm. The fabric core supplies reinforcement within the sheet, and the PVC surfaces cover that core throughout the panel area.
The technology entry is lamination/coating, with a laminated structure explicitly recorded. This describes a composite made from film and textile components. The proportion of each component is not given by the total weight. Adhesion, tensile behaviour and tear behaviour are separate properties, so a heavier area weight cannot establish all of them. Fabric direction should remain identifiable during cutting and testing.
Glossy and matte surfaces are available with a custom colour. An extra blockout layer can also be specified. For a tent roof, that choice affects the material configuration and should be considered before seams or artwork are trialled. Fire-performance options in the record require confirmation for the actual order and intended use; their listing alone does not establish that every colour or configuration meets every named classification.
The supplied dimensions are 1.05m to 3.2m wide in 50m rolls. Roof-panel layout should consider joins, edge detailing and the reinforcing fabric orientation. Review a fabricated section using the approved material finish. Roof support, tensioning and drainage are features of the completed tent and require assessment alongside the selected fabric.
