About Coil Tarps and Coil Bags

Steel coils are round, heavy and sensitive to moisture — even a little water can cause rust and a rejected load. Coil tarps and coil bags are shaped to drape over one or more coils sitting in a coil rack or on dunnage, with a cut and drop that reach the deck without miles of excess fabric. Coil bags enclose a single coil completely, while coil tarps cover single or multiple coils.

  • Sized for single and multiple steel coils
  • Coil bags for fully enclosed protection
  • Heavy-duty and lightweight options
  • Rows of D-rings for secure strapping

How to choose coil tarps and coil bags

  1. Coil diameter. Measure the coil height (diameter) and width; choose a tarp whose drop and width clear both with room to strap.
  2. Tarp or bag. Use a coil bag for single, high-value coils; use a coil tarp to cover multiple coils in one go.

Coil Tarps and Coil Bags FAQ

What is the difference between a coil tarp and a coil bag?

A coil bag fully encloses one coil like a fitted cover. A coil tarp is a shaped tarp draped over one or more coils and strapped to the trailer.

Why do steel coils need special tarps?

Coils are round and tall relative to their footprint; a standard flat tarp leaves large gaps and excess fabric. Coil tarps are cut to the shape so they seal properly and do not catch the wind.

Can I use a coil tarp on other loads?

Yes, many drivers use them for compact, tall loads such as machinery parts or crated freight, as long as the footprint fits.
