About Steel Tarps
Steel tarps are cut for low, dense freight — sheet steel, rebar, pipe, beams and similar loads that sit only a few feet off the deck. A short drop (typically 3–4 ft) means less excess fabric flapping in the wind, and heavier vinyl stands up to the sharp edges and rust that come with metal loads. Pair them with edge protectors to keep corners from cutting through.
- Short 3–4 ft drops for low loads
- Heavy 18 oz and 22 oz vinyl options
- Reinforced D-rings and webbing
- Use with corner/edge protectors on sharp loads
How to choose steel tarps
- Drop. Measure the highest point of the load; most steel loads need a 3 or 4 ft drop.
- Fabric. Choose 22 oz for sharp, abrasive freight; 18 oz covers most steel and pipe.
Steel Tarps FAQ
What is a steel tarp used for?
Covering low, heavy loads such as steel sheets, rebar, beams and pipe to keep them dry and free of road grime and rust.
What drop do I need on a steel tarp?
Most steel loads are under 4 ft tall, so 3 ft or 4 ft drops are the most common choice.
How do I stop a steel tarp from tearing?
Use plastic or steel edge protectors on every corner and sharp edge, keep straps tight so the tarp does not flap, and inspect for small cuts that can be patched with a tarp repair kit.
