Tarpaulin AWTools AW68042, model AW68042, weight 4.17 kg

AWTools AW68042 tarpaulin model AW68042 is a general-purpose protective cover weighing 4.17 kg, made to protect goods and equipment from weather, dust and moisture. Constructed from HDPE cross-woven fabric laminated on both sides with LDPE, the tarpaulin provides a robust, waterproof barrier while remaining relatively lightweight for handling and transport planning. Edge heat-sealing, eyelets every 1 m and a sewn-in rope reinforcement increase strength and stability in windy or wet conditions.

Advantages

The laminated HDPE fabric combined with LDPE coating ensures waterproofing, UV resistance and mould resistance, extending service life when used outdoors. Heat-sealed edges with regularly spaced eyelets and integrated rope reinforcement improve load retention and make fastening straightforward. The product’s weight of 4.17 kg gives a clear reference for handling and transport calculations while its easy-to-clean surface simplifies maintenance.

Suitable for

• Covering vehicles and machinery during outdoor storage
• Protecting pallets and building supplies on site
• Groundsheet or protective layer for timber and garden furniture

How to use

Place the tarpaulin over the object to be protected so that it fully covers exposed surfaces. Use the eyelets and sewn-in rope to secure the tarpaulin to anchor points, pulling the rope taut to reduce flapping in wind. For vehicles or irregular shapes, adjust tension progressively and use additional tie-downs where necessary to ensure full coverage. Regularly inspect eyelets and rope for wear, and clean the surface with mild soap and water to remove dirt and contaminants.

Usage recommendations

For longer outdoor life, mount the tarpaulin with adequate tension to prevent water pooling, avoid prolonged contact with sharp edges, and store folded in a dry place when not in use. When fastening near corners or heavy stress points, distribute load across multiple eyelets to reduce strain on individual attachment points.
