Are the stated sizes accurate? I know that some nylon tarp measurements are the size BEFORE they are hemmed and finished. Thanks.

I have not actually measured mine, but I believe that they are as close as possible.

When I bought this tarp, I read the same 'Product Dimensions' and took a guess that that dimensions were wrong. I purchased the tarp anyway and it certainly was NOT 17' x 13' x 6.3"! The tarp is basically 6" shorter than 12' x 25' in both directions but I never measured it. Covered my 21' x 8' trailer nicely with a couple of feet hanging over both sides. Hope this helps.

I'm afraid I can't exactly answer your question - Product dimensions 17 x 13 x 6.3 doesn't make sense, unless maybe that's the size of the package when it comes originally folded up. I can tell you that the tarp I have covers a 20-foot open bow runabout boat end to end with leftover tarp on each end, and also covers the boat side to side (8 foot wide) with a couple of feet of overlap on each side. Based on that, I'd say that the actual dimensions are equal or pretty darn close to the 12 x 25 foot advertised size.

Arleen: Normally, I would not be quick to provide a response to requests for information on products I have purchased, but I really love this hammock and I am sure you will too! Besides, it is a beautiful Saturday morning, perfect for some hammock time. The actual size of the hammock, not including the ropes, is 80 inches X 56 inches. I have had the hammock for about 7 months. It still looks like new. I am a big guy and my beautiful wife and I love spending time on it together!

I just bought a tarp that was too big for the tent and then cut it to size. I taped off the cut edges so it wouldn't unravel. Best to have one that fits exactly underneath the tent. I wish I had a thinner one that would fit inside the tent bag, but the tarp doesn't take that much extra room. I didn't cut it to fit underneath the vestibule, but now I wish I had, but it isn't a big deal.

it says it on the description, I would go measure them but I have 3 different sizes and don't want to measure wrong. I looked at the sizes listed and measured my patio stuff and it fit great. I put the covers on last fall, they wintered well but are on a screened in roofed porch. all I did this spring was wipe them off put a protertor (a plastic type) folded them up and put them in a box for summer storage. they are now like new !

Umm tarps like many other building materials and sorts do not actually measure to the dimensions they are described... Example: 2x4 boards actually measure 1.5" x 3.5"

I guess that would depend on your need. I start by saying that because usually you can deal with the extra length,but most of the time tarps are somewhat shorter than the stated dimensions by the time they fold and stitch the edges. So if you need the tarp to completely cover your frame with no gaps, you made need to go bigger. Hope this helps.

Hopefully my information will help you. Ours measures 112" Long, 71" wide (from middle to side, making it 142" completely across) and 35 1-/2 " high. It is big and we tie extra nylon rope around the bottom to keep it from flapping. It has never come off in the wind, but we are just extra careful. One thing the site does not tell, is that there is mesh material that is 4-1/2 inches wide that is 17-1/2 inches from the bottom on either end of the cover. My guess is to keep air flowing so that if it is windy the cover won't blow. Also, there are heavy nylon ties on either end (that was not mentioned in the description). We are very please with ours - it has proven better than any others we have purchased. Hopefully my information will help you.

The description states that the material weighs approximately 1.6 oz./sq. yd. With some simple math, that comes out to 9.6 oz. for a 9' x 6' tarp. Grommett tabs will be an insignificant addition to that weight, probably less than 1 oz. Note that the weight of the fabric may differ slightly, as 1.6 oz/yd is only an average.

I had an old fort that I put the new tarps on to sell it easier because the kids out grew it. I don't have the measurements but the last ones we had lasted several years!

You know, I never checked on that. I just ordered the one hammock I saw on line that I liked which leads me to believe they are all standard sizes, perhaps? I don't have the info anymore. It was a gift for my grandkids. Sorry I cannot be more helpful.

YES. As with all nylon field gear, the fabric will stretch slightly when wet. Jam in the tight item in all the damp pockets, let dry out for an hour, remove and check your mags for any water left over. After 24 hours of further drying, try the mags in the pouch again. They should fit, but it might be a tight fit. The nylon will also stretch just by continual use, so it will slowly loosen the rest of way through use. Also, note that some pockets will start out tighter or looser than others in the same pouch, due to manufacturing variations. This can be a chore, especially at the price charged, but once done is an outstanding product. YES. As with all nylon field gear, the fabric will stretch slightly when wet.

The tarps we have are made by Chicago Tarp. Amazon sells them in several sizes. Really GREAT tarps. Heavy and strong...no need to waterproof.

I believe its the finished size. I have never measured it. We use it under our tent.

The product dimensions are included in Amazon's listing: 4 x 10 x 13 inches. I didn't personally measure one to verify this, but 10 x 13 inches sounds right to me (I assume the "4" in Amazon's listing refers to the size of the stack of cloths altogether when purchased).

They are actually metal grommets coated black. They have held up in medium wind so far with no issues however I would worry in a heavy storm as there is no reinforced stitching and they are only 1/4th of an inch from the edge of the tarp which doesn't give much room if they do start to stretch out. You can put thin stakes directly though them or use some kind of cordage if you use thicker tent stakes. 7/16th inch inner diameter of grommets according to my ruler. Also looks like they folded the tarp back over itself to form the seam and so the grommets are held punched into two layers of fabric which helps, but there is only one line of stitching on the seam.
