40 Denier (40D) Ripstop Nylon Fabric, uncoated, is an ultra-lightweight, strong, woven nylon with a grid pattern (ripstop) to prevent tears from spreading, perfect for DIY outdoor gear like ultralight tents, stuff sacks, flags, and wind socks where weight savings are key, offering durability without bulk, often sold in various weights (around 48-58 GSM) and colors. While many common 40D nylon fabrics have PU/TPU coatings for water resistance, uncoated versions are available for breathability or specific uses, featuring a crisp feel and high tear strength.
Key Characteristics
- Denier (40D): Indicates a balance of lightweight feel with significant strength for its weight.
- Ripstop Weave: Interwoven thicker threads create a grid that stops small rips from growing, increasing durability.
- Uncoated: Lacks a waterproof (PU/TPU) coating, making it more breathable, lighter, and suitable for applications needing air permeability.
- Weight: Very light, around 1.4 oz/yd² (48 GSM) or slightly more (e.g., 58 GSM).
- Feel: Often described as having a "crisp" hand feel.
Common Uses for Uncoated 40D Ripstop Nylon
- Garments: Lightweight jackets, liners, or tactical clothing.
- Bags: Stuff sacks, ultralight backpacks.
- Camping Gear: Light tents (for breathability), sleeping bag liners, tarps.
- Flags & Kites: Its light weight helps maintain shape in the wind.
