Heavy Duty Silver Tarps — Premium 12 Mil Rip-Stop Construction
Our heavy duty silver tarps are excellent for a variety of uses. Rip stop and UV treated on both sides, with a large inventory available in stock. The fabric weave is 14 x 14 denier, with aluminum grommets about every 18 inches all around the tarp. The hems contain a rope reinforcement on all sides. Our 3 ply material tarps are a cut size, so they finish smaller than the size shown (4 in to 6 in shorter). These tarps are imported.
This silver poly tarp is the premium-grade option in our tarp lineup, offering better UV protection and durability than standard blue or brown poly tarps — ideal for long-term outdoor exposure, equipment storage, and large-scale covering needs.

Frequently Asked Questions — Silver Heavy Duty Poly Tarps - 12 Mil
What makes this tarp "12 mil" and how thick is it really?
The tarp uses a 3-ply HDPE construction with a 14 x 14 weave count and 1200 denier fibers, weighing 6 oz per square yard. Because these are cut-size tarps, the finished size is 4 to 6 inches smaller than the size listed — account for this when ordering for an exact fit.
Why choose a silver tarp over a standard blue or brown poly tarp?
Silver poly tarps are our premium-grade option, offering better UV protection and durability than standard colors. The silver front and black back construction, combined with UV protection on both sides, makes this tarp well suited for long-term outdoor exposure and demanding storage applications.
What sizes are available?
Sizes range from 16 ft x 20 ft up to 100 ft x 100 ft, with some sizes available as multi-tarp packs depending on dimension.
Can this tarp be used in cold weather?
Yes — this tarp is built with arctic temperature flexibility, meaning it stays pliable and resistant to cracking in freezing conditions, unlike standard tarps that can become brittle in the cold.
How are the grommets spaced?
Aluminum grommets are placed approximately every 18 inches around the perimeter of the tarp, with rope-reinforced hems on all sides for added durability.
How long does shipping take?
