OPTIMIZING STRENGTH TO WEIGHT RATIO, LIGHT BUT STRONG!
For the purpose that fabric is light but has high strength, a special reinforcing technique is applied during manufacturing to make it resistant to tearing and ripping.
Other than singular thread, EMMAKITES 40D doubled the reinforced threads to increasing durability.
Note: The property "ripstop" means that the tear on fabric won't spread like other ordinary fabrics.
PU(polyurethane) Coating
Flexible: PU Coating on the side of fabric to give it a soft feel in order that the fabric is flexible enough tobe made into any designed shape while still looks natural and smooth.
Low stretch:PU Coating has fabric stretch less: Even after intense uses, the fabric will retain its shape.
Protective Layer: PU coating gives fabric excellent air-tightness, waterproofing, UV Resistance and acts as a protective layer for fabric to maintain bright colors.
A wide and various range of applications.
Kite sails:40D ripstop nylon is the most used kite fabric. You can make almost all kinds of kites out of it, like single line kites, foil kites, inflatable objects, laundry,traction kites, etc. If you need fabric for stunt kites, please go for our PC20 fabric.
Banner and Flag
Protective and cover products: not used for long term protection.
Light backpacks and stuff bags:Lightness is required in outdoor activities. 40D ripstop nylon is widely used to make light but heavy duty bags.
More creative applications
- EMMA KITES 40D Ripstop Nylon is ultra-light [48 GSM], durable, tear proof, airtight and water resistant [500~1000mm HH]. Further enhanced by PU coating for better UV protection, extended service life and low stretch. A vibrant range of colors on offer, perfect for expressing your style and demands of various creative projects, from kites, windsocks, inflatables, flags to stuff sacks, bags, pack covers, extending to tarps, hammocks, and more.
- 【TEAR-PROOF】Reinforced double threads spread across the fabric to form strong "Ripstop" grids that give fabrics significantly increased tear resistance and tensile strength. This exceptional advantage ensures that kites continue performing optimally, even after enduring multiple hard impacts from repeated rough landings. Create additional barriers for bags and covers to hold up against wood or thorn pokes, and rock rubbings, ideal for the demands of outdoor use.
- 【WATER RESISTANT】40D Ripstop Nylon is PU-coated for modest water resistance of 500~1000mm HH. It withstands daily encounters with water, including splashes, light showers, drizzle, and spray. The material prevents water from penetrating the surface, keeping the inside dry, and supports quick-drying after soaking or being drenched.
- 【WEIGHT SAVING】A lightweight fabric of 1.4 oz per yd² [48 GSM], 40D ripstop nylon is made from high-tenacity nylon that yields high strength. We can take advantage of this lightweight material to create gear (stuff sacks, bags, tarps, and ponchos) where weight savings are important, especilally for outdoor use and portability. Its lightweight nature allows kite sails and inflatables to maintain taut, full airfoil shapes in varying winds. optimizing performance.
- 【"Crisp" Hand Feel】Due to precisely applied PU coating, the Ripstop Nylon features a "crisp" hand feel, making it one of the most ideal materials for windswept applications, such as kites, flags, windsocks, inflatables, and kayak sails.
- Fabrics on offer are【Precut Pieces】in specific linear yards. Most colors are available in 1-yard and 3-yard precut pieces. Folded, and in individual packages. 【Maintenance】Use the lowest heat for ironing nylon <248°F / 120°C; Hand wash the fabric in cold or lukewarm water. Softly brush it to remove stains. Detergent is not recommended. Use a mild detergent when it is a must. Line dry fabrics in the shade, away from direct sunlight. Dry fabric before storage.
