420D ROBIC ripstop nylon

If you want burly, strong, and durable, you've come to the right place. Our 420D ROBIC® double-grid ripstop nylon was built for the long-haul and is the toughest line of materials we currently offer.

Like all materials in our ROBIC® line, the difference starts with the yarn. See below for a typical comparison between fabrics using standard Nylon 6 yarn and ROBIC® yarn:

Translation? ROBIC® fabrics are up to 50% stronger with 2.5x the tear strength. In other words, it's hard to break and tough to rip.   

We've also added a special UV protective coating to the face side of the fabric. This extra step protects against sun exposure which can cause color fading and material degradation over time. 

This material is excellent for backpacks, gear reinforcements, heavy-duty sacks/bags, or any project requiring a tough, durable, and waterproof fabric. 

*Note that this fabric is sold in 1/2 yd increments to help reduce cost for smaller projects. Please enter a whole number of half yards in the box up top. For example, if you want 7 yds total, enter "14" in the half yard box.
