The choice of outdoor canopy

Beginners often go out camping with a tent, but when they get to the campsite, they find that many people in addition to a tent, but also another place to build a shade, that is, a canopy.

I believe that some of the new friends of camping just know the name of the sky curtain, so let alone the method of purchasing. But with the popularity of outdoor camping activities, more and more friends are more willing to try the tent camping equipment. So here today, the subject will expand to say it in detail, popularization of science.

1. Introduction of the canopy

The English of the sky curtain is Tarp, which is translated as tarpaulin, tarpaulin, that is to say, the reason why the sky curtain was originally designed is to shield the wind and rain from the sun. And then gradually evolved a variety of gameplay, building methods and so on.

Its composition is also very simple: multiple hanging points on the main canopy are responsible for connecting wind ropes, support rods, and ground nails, thereby propping up a space large enough to accommodate humans. The popular sky curtain shapes on the market are: square, diamond or polygon. Next, let's take a closer look at the canopy through its component parts.

Square awnings are more popular because they are relatively easy to build

2. The main body of the canopy

The main body of the canopy is generally composed of three layers: waterproof coating, main fabric, sunscreen layer, in addition to the main body of the hanging point.

PU waterproof layer

No matter what the merchant writes in the description of the sky curtain, the waterproof layer is "150D", "210T", etc., we need to see more values such as "PU3000+" and "PU5000+". It can be understood that the previous value of the description is its composition, and the value we pay attention to is the strength of the waterproof ability of the sky curtain presented by the previous component.
