Made In The USA
By choosing this product, you're supporting American craftsmanship, local jobs, and ethical manufacturing. Built with care — designed to last.
The Best Strength to Weight Ratio
Made from rugged 20 mil (10 oz. sq. yd.), 3 ply, 2500 denier reinforced polyethylene fabric, this tarp is much lighter than traditional vinyl or canvas options, but does not sacrifice much in the way of toughness and performance. Welded seams don't care the risk of leaks that sewn seams and hems do, and mean the tarp is ready for long-term use. The exceptional UV resistance and high range of temperatures in which it performs well make it a versatile option for both indoor and outdoor use.
This tarp is an excellent option to have on hand for unexpected needs. Its light weight makes it easy to store and to deploy in a hurry, and it is suited for use in almost any situation.
Fire Resistance Without Compromise
The polyethylene fabric used to make this tarp is clearly marked with an FR every yard. It is formulated to slow the spread of flames and resist sparks, meeting CPAI-84 and NFPA 701 fire safety standards, making it an effective tool for establishing a safe working environment. It is ideal for:
• Covering flammable materials
• Creating temporary enclosures in high-risk areas
• Enclosing construction sites and scaffolding
• Isolating welding and fabrication work
• Protecting combustable cargo in transit
Flame-Resistant Poly That is Too Tough to Tear
Since our early days, we have been crafting durable covers, a legacy that shapes our flame-resistant polyethylene tarps today. Built from a thick, woven poly with a protective coating, these tarps are designed to endure sparks, fire, harsh weather, UV exposure, and rugged use. The quality standards we set years ago continue to guide every tarp we produce.

Standard Features | ||
 | Double-Thick Hems: Our hems are heat-sealed instead of stitched for a seamless, durable edge. This double layer hem is ideal for holding grommets in place under tension. | |
 | Black Brass Grommets: Half inch inner diameter grommets are spaced every two feet around our poly tarps, with two in each corner. Made in America out of brass, these grommets will not corrode with outdoor use, and can be relied on for years. |
Options for Made-to-Order Tarps:
Grommets with Reinforced Patches: When our standard hem just isn't enough, we can add reinforcement patches to each grommet. This provides an additional layer of security against the grommet ripping out of the fabric. Useful wherever high winds or heavy loads might be, such as scaffolding and water control.
D-Rings with Reinforced Patches: Ideal where extra strong attachment is needed, this edge configuration features reinforced webbing and steel-plated zinc D-rings plus four-layer polyester patches. The 1-1/8-inch D-rings make tie-down easy and hold the tarp securely in place during the most demanding tasks. A must have for use in covering cargo in transit.
Rope in Hem: Whether you need grommets or D-rings, adding a rope to the hem results in an edge with extreme tension resistance. The rope sewn into the middle of the double layer fabric will take the strain of attachment and resist stretching or tearing, saving the fabric in the most grueling of conditions.
