| This
fabric features an unusual combination of
high strength with a large percentage of open
area. It is woven in a basket weave from plasticized
vinyl coated polyester yarn containing approximately
66% vinyl compound and 34% polyester. The
light bonding of the coated yarns at the crossover
points contributes to high tear resistance
compared with dip-coated mesh. |
| Suitable
for use where a durable, weather-resistant
open weave fabric is required. |
