Tarpaulin flaps and drops
The flaps and drops are measured downwards from the top edge of the body.

Tarpaulin drop
Tube side (m)
From the edge of the body down to the end of the tube pocket, including the pocket itself.
Fittings/rail side (m)
The vertical drop of the tarpaulin on the long side opposite the tube.
Middle pocket
An extra lengthwise pocket or reinforcement in the middle of the body for a second tube.
Weight
We recommend 700 g/m² tarpaulin. The 900 g/m² one makes rolling harder, especially on large gondolas (over 10 m long).
The tube is
The long side of the body that carries the roll-up tube. The opposite long side is the one with the fittings or the rail.
Hardware along the long side
Metal eyelets that the U-shaped battens of the body pass through and are locked with a sealing rope. Switch off if the cover is held by a rail.
Brackets on the long side
first at 0.125 m, every 0.250 m — 41 pcs
Hardware on the tube side
Eyelets on the long side with the tube. With this option fittings are also placed on the front and rear flaps, so the cover meets customs-approval requirements.
Accessories
The ropes used to tension the tarpaulin and lock it to the body. Add them to the order if you need them.
Elastic for the flaps
+ 0.90 €/mThe elastic rope you need to tension the front and rear flaps.
Sealing rope
+ 0.60 €/mThe sealing rope you need to secure the long side of the tarpaulin when it has hardware.

How it works
From the measurements to the finished tarpaulin
-
01
You measure the body
Following our diagram: body length and width, flap heights and the tarpaulin drops.
-
02
You configure the tarpaulin
You enter the dimensions, number of cross-members, fittings, fabric weight and colour, and see the price.
-
03
You send the order
We contact you to confirm the dimensions before we start making it.
-
04
We make it
The fabric is cut and joined by high-frequency welding, with reinforcements where the cross-members and fittings are.
-
05
You receive it by courier
You fit the tarpaulin yourself on the existing structure of the body.
How to measure
Dimensions are of the body, drops go down from its edge
The tarpaulin is made for your specific body, so the dimensions must be accurate. All of them are shown on the diagram — you can print it and write the measurements on it.
-
L×W
Body length and width
The outer dimensions of the body, measured along its top edge.
-
K
Front and rear flap
How far the tarpaulin hangs down over the front and rear walls, from the top edge of the body.
-
T
Drop towards the tube
From the edge of the body down to the end of the pocket for the roll-up tube, including the pocket itself.
-
O
Drop towards the fittings
The vertical drop of the tarpaulin on the opposite long side, where it is fastened to the body.
With a sealing rope or turn buttons, the rings of the new tarpaulin must line up with the brackets on the body. If the measurements are not accurate, some brackets may have to be moved.
If your old tarpaulin was made correctly, you can send it to us as a template.
Construction
Rolls up on one side, tensioned with elastic
Along one long side the tarpaulin ends in a continuous pocket for a metal tube it rolls up around. The short sides hang over the front and rear walls and are tensioned with elastic rope through the rings of the tarpaulin and the hooks on the body. The opposite long side is fastened with a rail, a sealing rope or turn buttons.
Pocket for the tube
The tube stays hidden in the pocket and only sticks out at both ends to connect to the roll-up mechanism.
Reinforcements
Every area that rests on the body or on the cross-members is additionally reinforced against chafing.
Included in the price
- The tarpaulin made to your dimensions
- The pocket for the metal tube
- Reinforcements where the cross-members are

Material
PVC tarpaulin 700 or 900 g/m²
Synthetic PVC tarpaulin, suitable for permanent outdoor use and for the loads of bulk transport. We recommend 700 g/m² — 900 g/m² makes rolling up harder, especially on long gondolas. The colour does not affect the price.
