Tarpaulin AWTools AW68013 — weight 4.07 kg

AWTools AW68013 tarpaulin is a general-purpose protective cover weighing 4.07 kg, made from HDPE cross-weaving fabric laminated on both sides with LDPE plastic. The construction features heat-sealed edges with eyelets spaced every 1 m and an integrated rope reinforcement sewn into the perimeter, providing increased tear resistance and stability in windy conditions. The material is waterproof, UV resistant and mould-resistant, and the surface is easy to wash, making this tarpaulin suitable for repeated outdoor use.

Advantages

The laminated HDPE structure ensures a lightweight yet robust sheet that resists punctures and abrasion. Heat-sealed edges and sewn-in rope reinforcement distribute load and reduce stress on fastenings, while regularly placed eyelets simplify anchoring and securing. The combined LDPE lamination improves water repellency and facilitates cleaning. UV-stabilised additives prolong service life under sun exposure and the mould-resistant finish reduces biological degradation in humid conditions.

Suitable for

• Covering vehicles and machinery during storage or transport
• Protecting building materials, timber and construction supplies on site
• Temporary groundcover or shelter on construction and agricultural sites
• Protecting garden furniture, equipment and outdoor items from weather and dirt

How to use

Position the AWTools AW68013 tarpaulin over the item to be protected, ensuring full coverage with some overlap where possible. Use the eyelets to secure the tarpaulin with rope, straps or bungee cords, fastening to fixed anchor points or stakes to avoid wind lift. For load covering during transport, tension the tarpaulin evenly and tie off multiple points to prevent flapping. After use, shake off loose debris, wash with mild detergent and water if needed, and allow to dry thoroughly before folding and storing in a dry place.

Usage recommendations

Choose fastening points that distribute tension evenly and avoid sharp edges or protrusions that could damage the laminate. Regularly inspect eyelets and rope reinforcement for wear, and replace the tarpaulin if significant punctures or seam failures occur. Store folded in a shaded, dry area to maximise service life.
