TECHniCaL DETaiLS:
Depending on tent models, VAUDE tents feature
the following:
fEaTUrES/faBriCS:
SILICON SEAM SEAL:
VAUDE is the only manufacturer to successfully fac-
tory seam seal siliconised tents for full waterproof
protection!
SILICONISED:
• 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 Polyamid 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
recommend sealing all seams by hand with a silicon
seam sealer.
fLY:
SUPER LIGHTWEIGHT 20D POLYAMIDE RIPSTOP 280T
SI/SI; 3,000 MM WATER COLUMN.
• Good tear resistance thanks to extremely fine,
super lightweight yet high-tenacity polyamide
thread with reinforced cross threads.
• SI - Triple layer silicon coating on both inner and
outer sides for maximum tear strength and water
beading effect, as well as increased UV resistance.
