Description
This fabric is used in the floors of the Ultralight packraft kits. It’s the same fabric as the 115 GSM fabric, except it has heat-sealable TPU on both sides.
Lightweight ripstop nylon fabric with a thin, heat-sealable polyurethane (TPU) coating on both sides (see Fabrics for definitions).
Weight is approximately 190 grams per square meter (5.6 ounces per square yard).
This is the stronger form of nylon, used in things like parachutes, airbags, and military applications, and it has a significantly higher melting point than other heat-sealable fabrics, so you are less likely to damage it with a heat sealing iron.
Fabric is sold from the roll by the linear yard (1 yard = 91 cm) and the usable width is approximately 145 cm (57″). This means that 1 “yard” of fabric by length equals 1.45 square yards (1.2 square meters) of usable fabric, which weighs approximately 230 grams (7.9 oz).
To order a length of 5 yards (for example), choose a quantity of “5”.

Notes:
- Fabric will be folded for shipping.
- TPU coated fabrics are not the same as PU (polyurethane) coated fabrics sold elsewhere.
- The manufacturing process may leave minor cosmetic imperfections in the fabric. These will not affect the strength or airtightness of the fabric.
- Stock is limited. Large orders may be cancelled, and bulk fabric sales may be discontinued without notice. Contact me before placing an order for more than 10 yards.
