Heavy duty flatbed tarps built for daily tarping. Every tarp in this category uses tear-resistant ripstop fabric with heat-sealed, 100% waterproof seams, stainless steel D-rings with protection flaps, 2″ webbing in the hems and grommets stitched every 2 ft around the edge, and every one is made in our own facility. What changes between models is the fabric: full ripstop vinyl, a hybrid with lighter parachute-fabric sides, or parachute fabric throughout.
What Makes These Tarps Heavy Duty
- Ripstop fabric: the reinforced weave stops small tears from spreading.
- 100% waterproof: heat-sealed seams keep water out of the load.
- Stainless steel D-rings: 2 to 5 rows depending on the model, each with a protection flap against abrasion.
- Reinforced hems: 2″ webbing sewn into the edges.
- Grommets every 2 ft: tie-down points all the way around the tarp.

Keep a Heavy Duty Tarp in Service
Put corner protectors or felt padding between sharp load edges and the tarp, check D-rings and grommets when you fold it, and patch small tears before they grow with a tarp repair kit. Remember that a tarp is not a tie-down: secure the load first, then tarp it.
Frequently Asked Questions About Heavy Duty Tarps
What makes these tarps heavy duty?
The construction: tear-resistant ripstop fabric, heat-sealed 100% waterproof seams, stainless steel D-rings with protection flaps, 2″ webbing in the hems and grommets stitched every 2 ft. Every tarp is made in our own facility.
What is ripstop, and why does it matter?
Ripstop fabric has a reinforced weave that stops a small tear from spreading across the tarp. A snag stays a small repair instead of a split panel.
Which is lighter: ripstop vinyl, hybrid or parachute fabric?
Parachute fabric throughout is the lightest build, the hybrid (vinyl top, parachute-fabric sides) is in the middle, and full ripstop vinyl is the heaviest. The lighter builds are easier to throw and fold when you tarp alone.
Which heavy duty tarp should I use for steel?
Our ripstop vinyl steel tarps: the 27 x 16 ft tarp (18 oz ripstop vinyl) and the 2-piece steel set, both with a 4 ft drop for low-profile loads on flatbeds and step decks.
How do I repair a torn heavy duty tarp?
Patch small tears early. Our tarp repair kits and HH-66 vinyl glue cover vinyl and parachute-fabric repairs.
