Sharing details of the component materials of tourist tents

Bringing a tent is indispensable for outdoor travel in this season. How to quickly and correctly build your own cabin? It would be ideal to find a shaded, flat place with a thick lawn. Then choosing a high-quality and suitable tent is the prerequisite. Next, the editor will tell you which material is best for the components of the travel tent.

Tourist tent fabric

Tourist tent is composed of fabric, lining, bottom material and poles.

1. Fabric

Compared with different fabrics, nylon silk is thin and light, suitable for mountaineering and hiking campers. Oxford cloth is thick, but relatively heavy, and is suitable for making tents for driving camping or small groups. From the perspective of waterproof coating, although PVC is good at waterproofing, it will harden and become brittle in winter, and it is easy to crease or break. PU coating can not only overcome the shortcomings of PVC, but is also very waterproof. The PU with multiple coatings has a waterproof pressure of more than 2000mm.

2. Lining

The lining (inner tent material) is usually made of cotton-style nylon silk with good breathability. From a usage perspective, nylon silk has better performance than cotton. When camping outdoors, tents can easily absorb moisture. Cotton fabrics can easily become moldy if they are not exposed to the sun, while nylon fabrics can dry out easily and are less likely to become moldy.

3. Bottom material

The main function of the tent bottom is waterproof, moisture-proof and dust-proof. The choice of base material also determines the grade of the tent. Low-end tents usually use PE as the base material, and some use PVC. They seek low-cost, double-sided laminated PE. Although it has waterproof and moisture-proof functions, it is easy to wear and leak. Winter is the nemesis of PVC base material, and PU coating It uses a layer of Oxford cloth as the base material, which greatly exceeds PE in terms of sturdiness, cold resistance, and waterproofness.

4. Pole

The tent pole is the skeleton of the tent. The quality of the frame material not only affects the life of the tent, but also affects the stability of the tent. Early tent poles were often made of steel, which not only increased the weight of the tent, but also had poor resilience. The improved tent frame uses fiberglass poles, which have reduced weight, improved resilience, and lower cost. Therefore, current tent manufacturers mostly use this type of material as poles, but the strength and sturdiness of fiberglass poles The performance is not ideal. If the braces are thickened to increase the strength, it will also increase the weight. The ideal pole material is aluminum alloy. The poles connected with high-strength alloy tubes are not only high in strength, but also light in weight and have good resilience. Especially the EASTON poles made of aerospace aluminum materials have various indicators. All have reached the ideal state, so they are mostly used for tents.
