How to Read a PVC Tarpaulin Datasheet | Denier, GSM, Strength & Roll Weight

Confused by 1000D, GSM, N/5 cm or warp and weft? This six-minute Duletai guide explains the key numbers on a PVC tarpaulin technical datasheet in plain English. Read the full illustrated guide: https://www.duletai.com/pvc-tarpaulin... Learn how to interpret reinforcing yarn specifications and fabric density; distinguish thickness from mass per area; read usable width and roll length; compare tensile, tear and coating adhesion tests; and calculate net roll weight and packed shipping volume. CHAPTERS 00:00 Read the fabric, not just the numbers 00:21 Base fabric and denier 00:44 Warp, weft and thread count 01:15 Thickness versus GSM 01:43 Width and roll length 02:06 Net roll weight calculation 02:39 Tensile strength and elongation 03:08 Tear strength and prepared cuts 03:32 Peel strength and coating adhesion 03:59 Surface, colour and options 04:26 Temperature and flame retardancy 04:48 Packed volume calculation 05:31 Packing, MOQ and your next step CALCULATION EXAMPLES Net fabric weight (kg) = width (m) × roll length (m) × GSM (g/m²) ÷ 1,000. Add the core and packaging to obtain gross shipping weight. Packed volume (m³) = outer packed length × width × height, with every dimension in metres. Packed length is not the unrolled fabric length; carrier billing rules may differ. Illustrations, test-method images and calculation examples are educational, not product-specific test results, certification claims or guaranteed performance. Compare the same units, methods, specimen directions, conditions and tolerances, and confirm the actual specification for your application.
