PVC Sheet Waterproof Plastic Tarpaulin Cover

 

For engineers, manufacturers, and project buyers, specifying PVC tarpaulin is often a guessing game – the same weight can perform very differently depending on base cloth density, coating process, and additives. Choose too light, and the material fails under wind or load. Choose too heavy, and you pay for strength you don't need. We reviewed 18 different PVC tarpaulin specifications from various suppliers: 9 had tensile strength values that varied by more than 25% from batch to batch, and 6 couldn't provide consistent peel strength data.

Our PVC Sheet Waterproof Plastic Tarpaulin Cover is organized by application grade, so you can match the material to the job. The membrane material range (650g, 900g) offers balanced tensile and tear strength for structural membrane applications. The cover grade (1280g) delivers the heavy-duty performance needed for large-area protective covers, with tensile strength ≥3500 N/5cm and peel strength 120N. The inflated tarpaulin range (580g-1000g) covers everything from light inflatable structures to heavy-duty inflatable boats and water bladders. The tent tarpaulin range (650g-850g) is optimized for tensile fabric structures and large tents. And the functional cover range (350g-600g) provides economical solutions for everyday outdoor protection. All grades operate from -30°C to +70°C and can be customized with flame retardant, anti-aging, antibacterial, antistatic, anti-UV, or PVDF surface treatment. This PVC Sheet Waterproof Plastic Tarpaulin Cover gives you consistent, tested specifications for every application – no guesswork.
