HG Cuben fiber tarp with doors

**Madox** · 07-03-2014, 18:06

HG has the cuben fiber in green listed as 6.5 oz which is .51oz/sqyd. Does anyone know what is the total weight of the camouflage print since camo is .67oz/sqyd?

So 6.5 oz divided by 0.51oz/sq yd is roughly 12.75 sq yards of material.

12.75 times .67oz/sq yd is 8.54 oz.

That's my estimate.

Pretty darned close I would say.. Mine is in the stuff sack and about 30 ft. of zing it and it is still 8 oz. High 8 but still 8...

....Gonna spend some time with it tomorrow will check back with ya..

I'm pretty sure mine is under the 8.5 estimate. I will check it on my gram scale tomorrow also.

Thanks guys! That helps a bunch and I also like the division. Make perfect sense!

Its light weight enough you will think that the package is empty when you get it ( that's what I thought when I got my Cuben tarp from HG )

I finally got around to weighing mine. The weight includes the following:
1 Dutch Zinger
1 Dutch Tarp Hook
37' 1.2mm dyneema Ridgeline
50' 1mm spectra guy lines
30' braided spectra fishing line
(mid-panel tie-outs)
Cuben stuff sack

Grand total = 9.2 ounces
