Medium Weight Tarpaulins

Medium Weight Tarps are a form of sheeting with eyelets. They are useful for covering, transport, creating shelter, as a waterproof cover and much more. Medium Weight Tarpaulins are usually made from either plastic or of heavy duty fabric such as a densely woven cotton.
Tarps a created by taking a sheet of material and hemming it; done by either stitching or heat sealing. Once the sheeting has been hemmed then eyelets are added, usually made of brass or nickel.
