Description
Lightweight grey for smaller jobs
For a small covering task or a tidy garden work area, this 1.5m × 2m grey tarpaulin is a lightweight option that folds away between jobs. The 50gsm polyethylene material keeps the sheet light to handle for small covering and work-area tasks.
Hemmed edges carry 12mm aluminium eyelets at 1m intervals. Choose fixings separately to suit their fit, reach and your intended anchors, leaving the material supported without pulling it tight.
One sheet supplied. Pots, tools and fixings are not included.
Measure for the job, not just the footprint
For garden work, measure the area where you want to place loose materials or suitable items. For a cover, measure over the top and down both sides of the item, then repeat in the other direction.
The nominal 3m² comes from the 1.5m × 2m cut dimensions. The finished sheet may be up to 5% smaller after hemming. Add the side drops, overlap and fixing reach your arrangement needs before deciding whether this compact size will fit.
The diagram shows the 4:3 rectangular proportions. Only corner eyelets are drawn for clarity; the actual edge spacing is 1m.
Use the lightweight sheet with care
50gsm describes material weight per square metre. It is not a load-bearing rating or a promise of protection in severe weather.
Prepare the contact area
Clear sharp debris and cushion rough edges. Place tools and pots carefully rather than dragging them over the material or using the sheet to carry a load.
Fix without overstretching
Choose suitable ties or elastic cords separately. Check their fit and reach, distribute tension and arrange covers so rain can run off rather than collect.
Clean and fold away
Inspect the sheet and attachments during use. Remove loose debris, clean and dry the material, then fold it for storage between jobs.
What is supplied?
One grey 50gsm polyethylene tarpaulin, nominally 1.5m × 2m before hemming, with hemmed edges and 12mm aluminium eyelets at 1m intervals. Ropes, bungees, pegs, supports and garden tools are separate. Multiple quantities provide separate sheets.
Not suitable for roofing or temporary roofing.
Questions about this compact grey tarp
Is the finished sheet exactly 1.5m × 2m?
No. These are cut dimensions before hemming. Finished dimensions may be up to 5% smaller, so include that difference as well as the drape and fixing allowance.
What does 50gsm mean?
It means 50 grams of material per square metre. This is a lightweight tarpaulin grade; the figure does not specify thickness or how much weight the sheet can carry.
Are cords or pegs included?
No. Choose suitable fixings separately, checking their fit, reach and the tension needed for your arrangement.
Can it be used as temporary roofing?
No. This tarpaulin is not suitable for roofing or temporary roofing.
