    do you think it is a good tarp, or will it rip? What do you mean by pulling strength?

    Is Tyvek a good fabric? I heard it's kinda "noisy" also.

    With the search it can be instant. Why is that an issue?
    There was a discussion on another thread about using tyvek as a cheap tarp material. Looks like the OP made one.

    The grommets ripped out. I sewed on pullouts and they were much stronger. I got some silnylon and never looked back. I say if you can afford the sil it is much better suited. If the tyvek is free like this was enjoy your project.

    I had previously seen a post about Tyvek and came back to find it again after getting a hookup for some of the material. Didnt really pay attention to the date, but thanks for your concern

    No problem.

    On a side note, I find it interesting that you are thanking me for my quick response and the time stamp in Tapatalk says you posted on June 19, 2015 and my last post was Oct 2014. I had to reread to realise what you were referring too.

    Glad my failure could be of help to you.
