18oz Standard Cotton Canvas Tarpaulins

Our water-resistant Heavyweight Canvas tarpaulins are made from single-filled cotton duck and imported from India. These heavy-duty sheets are 18oz before proofing, resulting in a durable finished weight of 18oz after wax treatment.

Made from 100% cotton, these tan canvas tarpaulins provide a natural alternative to plastic tarps. Due to their heavyweight nature, they drape well and offer better resistance to abrasion and punctures while remaining breathable. Rust-resistant brass eyelets are set into tabs at 2ft intervals along the edges and at all four corners. The hems and seams are single-stitched for added durability.

As our canvas tarps are made from a natural fabric, they are breathable. However, please note that a slight amount of shrinkage may occur when exposed to varying temperatures. Our strong canvas tarps are wax-proofed for water resistance, but they will need to be re-treated after prolonged exposure to water and the elements to maintain their protective properties.

These tarps are wax-proofed and dyed, which can cause some risk of color transfer upon application—please take caution. We do not recommend suspending these tarpaulins solely by the eyelets if using them as an outdoor canopy. We advise using bungee cords to prevent excessive pressure on the eyelets. For larger tarps, it's highly recommended to use a ridge line or multiple ridge lines made of rope or bungee, which will help support the tarp's weight and assist with water runoff. If tarps are suspended only by the eyelets, water can pool and add extra pressure and weight. Use as many eyelets as possible and install additional ones where needed, especially in areas prone to stress. Additionally, check out our rip-stop canvas tarps for superior tensile strength.
