sary (elasticity can wear out in very cold conditions
or due to aging). To do this first remove the end cap
and then untie the knot in the cord. Retie the knot
further up the cord and replace the cap.
TECHNiCAL dETAiLS:
Depending on tent models, VAUDE tents feature the
following:
FEATURES
Siliconized:
• Increases tent life by 20% - a triple coating reflects
damaging UV radiation to a much greater degree
than standard treatments.
• 8-times greater tear resistance – siliconised fabrics
attain a tear resistance of 8-11 kg compared to 1.3
kg of PU coated fabrics.
•
Excellent water beading properties – water simply
beads on the surface.
• Retensioning – the nylon carrier material swells up
when damp or wet. The tent needs to be retensed if
rain/snow initiate.
• Sealing – siliconised materials cannot be factory
seam sealed (exception: VAUDE Silicon Seam Seal).
When camping in extremely rainy conditions we re-
commend sealing all seams by hand with a silicon
seam sealer.
FLY:
SUPER TEAR-RESISTANT 70D POLYAMIDE RIPSTOP 210T
SI/SI; WATERPROOF TO 5,000 MM.
•
Very high resistance to tearing due to tensile poly-
amide fabric embedded with reinforcing fibres.
• Triple silicon coating to the outer and inner surfaces
for maximum tear-resistance and water run off, as
well as increased UV-resistance.
iNNER TENT:
