Repairing a zipper on a tent on a hike. Repair of punctures and breaks in the awning
For the manufacture of tourist tents, in most cases, manufacturers use two types of fabrics:
- based on polyamide fibers - nylon, nylon;
- based on polyester fibers - polyester, lavsan.
All of these synthetic fabrics, with their lightness and elasticity, are tear-resistant, abrasion-resistant, but at the same time quite vulnerable to punctures and cuts.
Another serious threat to nylon tents is fire. Even a small ember flying out of a fire can burn through your favorite tent, making its further operation almost impossible.
Returning home, you should make a more thorough repair - replace the temporary patch with a permanent one. All it takes is a piece of suitable cloth and good glue.
How to choose a glue for a patch
To work with fabric, you should use a special textile glue, which has a number of advantages:
- it does not spread;
- it is colorless (transparent), therefore it does not stain the glued product, does not leave traces and odor;
- able to withstand not only the effects of rain, but also many washes with aggressive agents.
Select the glue based on the type of fabric.
The following types of glue are suitable for working with synthetic materials:
- Moment Crystal is a transparent contact adhesive based on polyurethane. Designed for gluing various synthetic fabrics. The glue is frost-resistant, waterproof, aging resistant.
A patch, glued with Moment Crystal glue, is not afraid of either solar ultraviolet light or the aggressive effects of natural factors. The glue is considered safe as it does not contain toluene.
The optimum application temperature is 18-25 degrees. The glue is sold in aluminum tubes; a 30-gram package costs about 60 rubles.
- Glue 88-NT is a universal elastic glue designed for reliable bonding of fabric (synthetic) and polymer materials in any combination.
Forms a flexible glue seam, glued products can be used in the temperature range from minus 40 to plus 50 degrees. Glue 88-NT is sold in aluminum tubes; a 45-gram package costs about 50 rubles.
- Adhesive Polyurethane Anles- modern polyurethane adhesive based on Desmocoll rubber. Water-resistant, colorless, elastic adhesive composition provides a reliable connection of the glued surfaces.
With this glue, you can quickly glue the polyester tent.
The glued products are intended for operation in the temperature range from -40C to + 60C. The adhesive is resistant to aging. Served in 40 ml tubes, it costs about 50 rubles.
An excellent alternative to glue will be a special hot-melt nylon patch.
These patches are intended for quick repair of tents, clothes made of synthetic fabrics, backpacks. It is enough to cut out a fragment of a suitable shape, remove the protective film and apply it to the damaged area on one or both sides and warm it up with an iron.
Any quality rubber adhesive can be used to repair water-repellent polyester products.
Instructions - glue the hole in the tent in stages
To repair a tourist tent made of raincoat fabric, you will need the following materials and tools:
- Scissors;
- Patch fabric;
- Polyurethane adhesive;
- Cotton swab;
- Needle and thread.
1.Preparation
The surfaces to be bonded must be clean and dry.
Before starting repairs, materials should be kept at room temperature for several hours. To reliably glue the raincoat fabric tent, the surface should be degreased.
If the tent is torn, it does not have to be thrown away. At home, using a sealant, you can repair a broken seam, and with the help of two patches and glue, a broken tent fabric. The main thing is to notice the damage in time, and after the repair the tent will become like new
An experienced traveler, before going on another trip, be sure to carefully check all his equipment and inventory. It is better to identify any breakdown at home, which, among other things, does not make such a discovery in any way pleasant.
If you find that your tent is torn, there is no desire to spend money on a new one, and the old one could still serve for several years, then you should not be upset. Almost any damage to a tent can be repaired at home, as long as it is not a giant gap and if the entire tent is not in holes.
Tent damage can be divided into two types - seam divergence and awning fabric tear.
If you find that your tent is torn at the seam, you will need a good sealant to repair it, which you can easily find at a camping equipment store. It is quite possible that you already have it at home, because many tourists recommend buying such repair tools in advance and taking them with you if you are going on a long trip.
Before applying the sealant, the bonding site must be thoroughly cleaned. At the same time, be careful with the tent so that the gap does not go further. When the surface is cleaned, it is necessary to apply the sealant not too thickly on the elements of the seam to be glued and the folds that cover them. Allow to dry a little, then tightly connect the matter. For reliability and strength, the seams can be ironed with an iron or stone (if the repair is taking place far from civilization). For a couple of hours after that, it is best not to touch the tent at all, and to ensure reliability, leave it to dry in a dry, warm place for about a day.
If the fabric is torn directly, then first the gap should be tightly sewn up with a strong thread. After that, carefully coat the new seam with glue for raincoat fabrics. While it dries, cut out 2 patches, which should be about 2 cm larger than the gap on all sides. 
As a material for patches, you can take a piece of jacket fabric. However, with some tents, manufacturers supply additional material for the patches. Saturate the resulting piece of fabric with a water-repellent agent. First, we apply waterproof glue to one side of each patch, coat the seam on both sides. When the glue has dried, we repeat the procedure, give it time to dry slightly, and then apply patches to the break from the inside and outside.
Using a stream of hot air from a hair dryer, we warm up the glues. We leave the tent for 4-5 hours, after which it will be ready for full-function use again.
If the gap occurred already during the hike, then the hole can at least be sewn up, and the main repair work can be postponed until you return.
Repair kit composition
As a rule, the complete set with a new tent comes with a repair kit with everything you need. At least this is a rule of good form that most manufacturers adhere to. It includes repair tube in case of breakage of the frame and several self-adhesive patches for gluing cuts or just a couple of pieces of cloth and a tube of glue. The latter is preferable (why - more on that below).
If something was not included in the kit, it is reasonable to buy it immediately. Cut repair kits, while not common, can still be found in travel stores. It costs from 100 to 300 rubles. Or you can assemble it yourself from any piece of waterproof fabric, plus you can buy a small tube of glue in the household for gluing all kinds of plastic materials: fabrics, Pvc, polyester. But if there was no repair tube, then finding it separately, and even the required diameter, is much more difficult. At least I hardly ever met them in stores. In this case, it is easier to immediately buy a spare section of the frame. It costs from 50 to 200 rubles. and weighs relatively little, 40-100 g. But if something happened, it would be easier to make repairs.
Repairing cuts on the tent / bottom tents
Everything is quite simple:
I must say, ordinary fabric patches plus a tube of glue, although there is more fuss with them, show themselves more reliable. They perform better in nasty weather conditions, when everything is wet, dirty and cold. Where their self-adhesive cousins sometimes start to fail.
Large cuts... If the length of the cut is such that the available patches are no longer enough, then they are made either overlapping, or you have to sacrifice a packing bag from tents(pegs / arcs). Fortunately, most of these bags are made by manufacturers from the same material as awning or bottom tents... There are a lot of fabrics, the main thing would be glue.
Frame repair
If one of the sections of the frame breaks down, the easiest and most reliable way to repair is to replace it with a spare one. We take out the elastic band passing inside the arc, replace the broken knee with a new one, after which we put everything back together. Total, we have a full-fledged arc in our hands again.
If we only have a repair tube in the repair kit, in this case:
In principle, in haste, you can not wind anything on the sides, but simply put a repair tube over the "fracture" and fix it in place with a piece of tape or wedge it with a toothpick. But in this case, the places where the arc presses on the edge of the repair tube will be heavily loaded, and secondary breakdowns are possible.
If there is no repair tube, you can try to build it by rolling tin from a tin can or even a beer can in several layers (alas, it is not uncommon that they are lying underfoot). If that is not the case, then you will have to reinvent the tire from some sticks placed in a circle or pegs with a V-shaped profile. Quite a cumbersome structure, but, as they say, "fish for fishlessness and cancer".

Since ancient times, the tent served as a dwelling for nomads and hunters. The tent was a portable dwelling constructed of tarpaulin, animal skins, felt, mats, or other materials that were stretched over a frame or supported by poles or posts. One of the first historical documents about sewing tents was the Epistle of the Holy Apostle Paul, where he mentioned that, not wanting to be a burden for the early Christian churches, he made his living by sewing
First of all, I must say that there is no certain ideal tent, suitable for everyone and for all occasions. It would be as fantastic as a certain Ferrari car suitable for everyone in the world, on which it is great to ride with the breeze, but at the same time with the capacity of a bus, the cross-country ability of a tractor and consuming two drops of peanut butter a year. It's the same in the travel world. Each person has his own requirements, his own ideas about how his stay on
Purpose By purpose, the tents can be divided into three categories: extreme highlands, camping and trekking for midlands and plains. Extreme is used for expeditions and mountain climbing at any time of the year, including in winter. It is characterized by the rigidity of the structure to withstand wind, snow, low temperatures and other extreme weather conditions. Camping is intended for camping sites, picnics, the creation of stationary camps. Is an

This gradation depends on the materials used.
To begin with, the choice primarily depends on where and in what conditions you will use it. There is no doubt that a tent for rock climbing, water trekking and camping is as different as an elephant from a goat. Therefore, according to their intended purpose, it is convenient to divide them into three main groups. The first is extreme tents, created specifically for survival in the most difficult conditions. It uses the most modern materials and technologies to achieve maximum strength,
The tent is your portable home for your camping trip.

There are many types of tents, some people use them for work, others need them for entertainment, and still others live in them all the time. Various yurts, yarangas and wigwams that still exist today can be considered the forefathers of tents. The first tents were made of wooden or bamboo arches, and such improvised means as straw, animal skins were used as tents, later they began to use fabrics. The improvement of tents itself began only in the twentieth century. People
How to choose a tourist tent Among the huge variety of various shapes, sizes, capacity and water resistance, you want not to get lost and choose the one that is best suited for your trip.

The assembly of a typical two-layer tent with an inner frame of the most common type in our country is done in five simple steps. We spread the inner tent on the ground. We collect the arches and insert them into the eyelets at the corners of the inner tent. Eyelets are the tailor's name for metal rings embedded in the fabric. We hang the ceiling of the inner tent by the hooks. At the same time, to make it easier and nothing
Tent material Tents and materials produced in different countries by different manufacturers are marked completely differently. Moreover, you will not find two companies that would designate fabrics in the same way. A complete mess is observed in numbers describing properties such as waterproofness, breathability of membrane materials, strength, weight. This is due to the use of data obtained as a result of various tests carried out at different
Where does it come from We all know from childhood the effect when you breathe on a cold window, and it starts to fog up. Why it happens The room air, once it gets into our lungs, heats up and saturated with water vapor to a relative humidity of 100, that is, it absorbs the maximum amount of water that it can carry in itself at the current temperature. When you exhale, contacting the cold surface of the glass, the air cools down, and its ability to retain water is sharply reduced.
Single and Double Layers A typical modern tent consists of two layers of an inner tent made of thin breathable fabric and a waterproof awning. It would seem, why fence such a garden? Make a tent from a solid piece of waterproof material and you will be happy. But the fact is that during breathing, among other things, we constantly exhale water vapor, which is actively condensing on the walls that cool overnight in more detail here. The solution was found in
A tent is a temporary dwelling made of fabric, a quickly erected collapsible structure, designed to protect against adverse weather conditions and temporary accommodation and residence of people, work, household needs, as well as storage of various materials, property and equipment in the field. It is widely used for the organization of temporary settlements by tourists, travelers, the armed forces, as well as representatives of mobile professions, soil scientists, archaeologists, geologists,
First of all, it is customary to keep the entrance to the inner tent permanently closed. If it's hot, only a mosquito net is left on the door, but when entering and leaving, it closes behind itself every time. It is the same at night and during the day. This is a rule of good form among tourists. Then in the morning no one is busy shaking out ants and other children of the forest from the sleeping bag. Getting ready for bed in the evening is enough, waiting for the last person to climb into the tent, batten down the entrances and exits and with the help of a few slaps
The quality of the tent depends not only on your vacation in the wild, but also on the safety of all personal belongings that are inside. And besides them and you, there is also a backpack, a sleeping bag, a rug and other attributes of tourist life, which you cannot do without during a hike. Therefore, in order to protect all your travel property from moisture and wind, it is important to choose a good, comfortable and reliable tent. What to look for when choosing a tent. At first,

They are not made at the space plant, so repairing the tent with your own hands is quite possible. We can talk about the breakage of arcs, a lock, a lightning, a divergence of seams and the formation of holes, burned, cut into the fabric. All options require separate consideration - here are the instructions for repairing the tent bottom of the tent. Much in this case depends on the nature of the gap from the length of the edge from the load assumed on the edges of the hole from the direction of the load usually does not matter, since the tent
Method 1, neat We take out all the pegs. To make it easier to pull them out of the ground, you can pull on the loops into which they are inserted. Remove the awning and fold it in half, as shown in the picture. Then again in half. And we roll it into a roll. We shake out any debris accumulated in the inner tent. Remove and fold the arcs. We fold the inner tent. We remove
A tent with an external frame is assembled in almost the same way as an internal frame. The only difference is that the awning and the inner tent are already fastened together with small straps and put together immediately. Likewise, we spread a tent set with an inner tent attached to it on the ground. We collect the arcs. We stretch the tent on arcs in one of two ways, depending on which method was provided by its manufacturer in the design
Rain In the rain, it is best to pitch a tent with an outer frame. Threw it on the ground, stretched it out on arcs and you're done. Everything is dry inside. But with the more common in-frame tents, everything is not so tragic either. First of all, if there is a group tent or some tree with a spreading crown, then the tent is assembled under it, and then it is simply transferred to the right place.Many modern tents, due to their flexible frame, keep their shape even without being
When parking on stones, there is usually no place to stick the pegs. And all sorts of options with their wedging and rolling with cobblestones due to turbulence during the wind very often end in night rush jobs with the restoration of a destroyed dwelling. So, as a rule, pegs are simply not taken on mountain hikes to reduce weight. Instead, they take a coil of thin rope 2-4 mm in diameter. Its pieces of 1.5-2 m are tied to the ears, into which the pegs were previously inserted
When buying a new tent, the guy wires are usually kept separately in a bag with pegs. The first step is to tie them to the corresponding loops on the awning. The best way to do this is to tie a loop at the end of the brace in mountaineering, such a knot is called a conductor. For example, strap something to your backpack or

Description: Tunnel 3-3-person tent, made in the shape of a half roll and designed for use at positive air temperatures. A characteristic feature of Tunnel 3 is a huge vestibule, where you can shelter bicycles and belongings of all the inhabitants of the tent from the weather, and, if necessary, use it as a place for cooking. The manufacturer paid great attention to the resistance of the tent structure to negative influences: a strong sling along the edge of the awning, additional reinforcement of the fabric in areas of increased load, sealing the seams and flame retardant impregnation, which inhibits the combustion process. In addition, the corners of the inner tent are made with seamless technology, which also increases the strength of the awning. The awning has a waterproof rating of 4000 mm, and a floor of -6000, which allows you to stay dry even in heavy rain. Of the "amenities" at Tunnel 3, it should be noted 3 entrances equipped with a mosquito net, a ring for a lantern in the center of the ceiling, a folding shelf for small things and 6 pockets in the inner tent. Ventilation is provided by valves located at the ends of the tent, also equipped with a mosquito net. With its dimensions, the tent has a relatively low weight and good wind resistance, and also takes up little space when assembled.

These are mainly trekking and extreme tents designed for one or two travelers. Camping tents are the heaviest, as these models are often designed for a group of 4-6 people or more. Some models weigh 60 - 70 kg. These tents can accommodate up to 20 people (for more details see "Number of places"). Wind / snow skirt Presence of a protective skirt along the lower edge of the tent. A skirt is a strip of fabric around the perimeter of the tent that rests directly on the ground. It can be either sewn on or detachable. The presence of a skirt is extremely necessary when using tents in the mountains, in winter or just at low temperatures. The skirt will prevent snow or rain from penetrating into the cracks formed by the edge of the tent and unevenness in the established place. Internal pockets Internal pockets allow you to organize your space inside the tent. Inner tent The presence of an inner tent, which in some cases can be set up separately from the awning. Models with an inner tent are usually called two-layer. The outer layer (awning) is waterproof and strong, protects from rain, and the inner layer is breathable and very light. Single layer tents are lightweight and have a small volume when assembled. Their disadvantage is that condensation accumulates on the walls of the tent, while in two-layer drops they will roll down without penetrating into the living space. Water resistance of the awning (from 300 to 20,000 mm h.c.) The maximum height of the water column that the awning of the tent can withstand. This parameter determines the waterproofness of the material from which the tent is made. For areas with rare rainfall, tents with a water resistance of 500 - 3000 mm of water column are suitable. If the likelihood of rain is high, showers are possible, then it is advisable to choose tents with an awning waterproofness of more than 3000 mm in. Art. The value of this parameter can sometimes reach up to 10,000 mm in. Art. Among the disadvantages of fabrics with high water resistance can be noted a relatively greater weight and high cost. Possibility of attaching a flashlight The presence of special hooks or loops for hanging a flashlight or lamp. Most often, these hooks are attached to the upper center of the tent. Geometry Some of its properties depend on the shape of the tent. The hemisphere has excellent wind resistance, but has less living space compared to the half roll. Usually in such tents, the frame consists of two intersecting arcs. The half roll has a large internal space. In addition, usually a significant part of such a tent is set aside for a vestibule, which looks very attractive as base stations or for a long stay in nature. Gable and tent geometries are still used, but only in the production of very simple models or large tents (for expedition groups). In such a tent, you can gather in a large company. Non-standard models are those in which the frame structure can combine several types. For example, half-roll and half-sphere are used to make large two-room camping tents. Sealing of seams A method of sealing the seams of a tent. Taped seams reliably protect the tent from water leaks. Welded seams are very reliable and durable, as they are welded with a special tape. In addition, there are tents that lack seam sealing. Basically, these are models of the lowest category. But there are also professional tents in which sealing is not required simply because they will stand above the level of rain (above the clouds). Diameter of arches (from 0.0 to 30.0 mm) The size of the arches of the tent. Depending on the required characteristics, the arcs for the frame can have different diameters. Accordingly, the thicker the arc, the stiffer they are, but at the same time less plastic. Sometimes arcs with different diameters are used. In such tents, the arches that take on the main load are thicker, and the additional ones (to keep their shape or give more stability) are somewhat thinner. Number of ventilation windows (from 1 to 12) The presence of several such windows in a camping tent will be highly desirable, since the size of tents often allows you to cook food inside, boil water. Usually tents with several rooms (see "Number of rooms") have a separate ventilation system in each of them. Number of places (from 1 to 20) The maximum number of people who can be accommodated in the tent at the same time. Number of vestibules (from 0 to 4) A vestibule is the space that separates the room from the exit. Many modern models are equipped with it, but there are also tents without it. The tambour is usually the area between the inner tent (see "Inner Tent") and the exit, which may also have a bottom. Small vestibules are used to store things and equipment. Inner Tent Material The name of the material that the inner tent is made of (see "Inner Tent"). Nylon, produced in compliance with certain technologies (weaving, density, etc.), has the necessary strength and breathability. Polyester can also be used to sew an inner tent. It has greater strength and durability than nylon and is highly breathable. Cotton is rarely used in the production of indoor tents. This tent can be recommended for those who are allergic to synthetics. Among the advantages are also low weight and low cost. But a tent made of such a material must be thoroughly dried before storage, otherwise there is a possibility that the fabric will deteriorate. Bottom Material Name of the material used to sew the bottom. Polyester is resistant to most acids and alkalis, to wear and tear, which allows it to be widely used in the production of the bottom of tents. Nylon is also often used for sewing tent bottoms. In the production of materials, various material processing technologies are often used. For example, Nylon Taffeta PU is polyurethane-treated to withstand a head of water pressure of 6000 mm (see "Bottom Water Resistance"). Reinforced polyethylene is mainly used for the production of the bottom of budget tents. Polyethylene has a higher specific gravity and therefore is used in the main production of camping tents (see "Purpose"). Tarpaulin is also a good material for the bottom of tents, as has a high margin of safety. PVC excludes thread connection, is a good fire-resistant, moisture- and wear-resistant material, therefore it is also often used in the production of tents. Awning material Material used for sewing a tent awning. Polyester does not lose its strength when wet, it tolerates ultraviolet radiation and sunlight well, and has high heat resistance. Tents made from this material have a longer lifespan than nylon tents. Nylon loses about 10-15% of its wet strength, is more sensitive to UV radiation and sunlight - strength decreases over time. This material is less resistant to chemicals than polyester. Membrane fabric has two seemingly incompatible qualities: "breathes" and at the same time has water-repellent properties. These properties are given to the material either by impregnation, which is applied to the fabric during production with high-temperature technology, or the thinnest film, which is glued or welded to the fabric. The combination of fabric + silicone gives tents made from this material significant advantages. These tents have a high degree of UV resistance, which is a significant advantage when used in high mountains. In addition, silicone coated fabrics are 2-3 times more durable than non-coated fabrics. Subject to the rules of operation, the tent, the awning of which has a double-sided silicone coating, can last more than 10 years. The usual tarpaulin is rarely used at the moment. Tarpaulins are heavy but inexpensive. More often in production, tarpaulin is used as a solid base with additional coatings that improve its properties. Canopy The presence of a canopy in the structure of the tent. In many camping tents, a rectangular part of the awning plays the role of a door, which can be unfastened and put on pegs, thus making an awning. Purpose Camping tents by purpose can be classified into high, mid and plain models. Highland tents are considered extreme, while midland and plain tents are subdivided into camping and trekking tents. Fishing tents can be singled out separately. Extreme tents are designed for mountain climbing and expeditions. The design of such a tent must be as rigid as possible to withstand the harsh conditions of the highlands (wind, snow). There are extreme tents for "Himalayan" and "Alpine" climbing styles. The Himalayan style implies the creation of several bases during the ascent, and with the Alpine style, stationary bases are not set up, and tents are carried with them. Camping tents are the most comfortable. They are intended for picnics, children's camps, camping sites. Such models are often equipped with mosquito nets, adjustable ventilation openings, in addition, they may have several rooms, entrances, vestibules. Trekking tents are designed for hiking or cycling trips in which weight plays a significant role. Such tents must be highly reliable and rigid, because often such trips last for weeks. Fishing tents are generally not designed for overnight stays. In it you can hide from the bad weather, relax. Fishing tents are usually compact and lightweight. Refractory impregnation The presence of a special impregnation that retards the spread of fire. To increase safety when using tents, some manufacturers impregnate the fabric with a compound that prevents the spread of fire in the event of an accidental fire. The slower spread of the fire will provide additional time to take action to combat it or to get things out of the tent. Frame type The type of frame provided for in the structure of the tent. It is more convenient to set up a tent with an outer frame, and at the same time, the inner tent does not get wet, since the awning is placed first. The inner frame design is more difficult to set up, but allows the inner tent to be set up without an awning (outer tent). Tents without a frame are stretched on two posts or on natural supports (trees, etc.). Reinforced corners Reinforced corners of the tent. The fabric from which the tent is made can rip in places of greatest stress. To reinforce the corners, inserts made of durable fabric are used, sewing in a double layer or additional stitching with slings.

For outdoor activities and easy hikes Easy to install All seams are taped Zippered entrance Additional loops on the ridge allow you to set up the tent without poles using external supports. For example, between two trees. Most of the entrance and the opposite end wall are made of mosquito netting. Due to this, the tent is well ventilated. Wind and moisture protection curtains allow completely or partially covering the ventilation windows made of mosquito nets. Thanks to this, optimal ventilation can be achieved. Large overhangs on the sides of the tent and additional canopies on the ends of the tent protect against "slanting" rain. Detachable tie-down straps on the bag make it easy to attach it under the backpack without additional attachment elements. In this case, the tent can be taken out of the bag without unfastening the bag itself from the backpack (a prerequisite: the backpack must have at least two molle-type slings at the bottom) Guy ropes have an interwoven reflective thread. forum) To improve protection against slanting rain, the moisture protection curtain at the entrance has been moved to the outside.

These are mainly trekking and extreme tents designed for one or two travelers. Camping tents are the heaviest, as these models are often designed for a group of 4-6 people or more. Some models weigh 60 - 70 kg. These tents can accommodate up to 20 people (for more details see "Number of places"). Wind / snow skirt Presence of a protective skirt along the lower edge of the tent. A skirt is a strip of fabric around the perimeter of the tent that rests directly on the ground. It can be either sewn on or detachable. The presence of a skirt is extremely necessary when using tents in the mountains, in winter or just at low temperatures. The skirt will prevent snow or rain from penetrating into the cracks formed by the edge of the tent and unevenness in the established place. Internal pockets Internal pockets allow you to organize your space inside the tent. Inner tent The presence of an inner tent, which in some cases can be set up separately from the awning. Models with an inner tent are usually called two-layer. The outer layer (awning) is waterproof and strong, protects from rain, and the inner layer is breathable and very light. Single layer tents are lightweight and have a small volume when assembled. Their disadvantage is that condensation accumulates on the walls of the tent, while in two-layer drops they will roll down without penetrating into the living space. Water resistance of the awning (from 300 to 20,000 mm h.c.) The maximum height of the water column that the awning of the tent can withstand. This parameter determines the waterproofness of the material from which the tent is made. For areas with rare rainfall, tents with a water resistance of 500 - 3000 mm of water column are suitable. If the likelihood of rain is high, showers are possible, then it is advisable to choose tents with an awning waterproofness of more than 3000 mm in. Art. The value of this parameter can sometimes reach up to 10,000 mm in. Art. Among the disadvantages of fabrics with high water resistance can be noted a relatively greater weight and high cost. Possibility of attaching a flashlight The presence of special hooks or loops for hanging a flashlight or lamp. Most often, these hooks are attached to the upper center of the tent. Geometry Some of its properties depend on the shape of the tent. The hemisphere has excellent wind resistance, but has less living space compared to the half roll. Usually in such tents, the frame consists of two intersecting arcs. The half roll has a large internal space. In addition, usually a significant part of such a tent is set aside for a vestibule, which looks very attractive as base stations or for a long stay in nature. Gable and tent geometries are still used, but only in the production of very simple models or large tents (for expedition groups). In such a tent, you can gather in a large company. Non-standard models are those in which the frame structure can combine several types. For example, half-roll and half-sphere are used to make large two-room camping tents.

In addition, usually a significant part of such a tent is set aside for a vestibule, which looks very attractive as base stations or for a long stay in nature. Gable and tent geometries are still used, but only in the production of very simple models or large tents (for expedition groups). In such a tent, you can gather in a large company. Non-standard models are those in which the frame structure can combine several types. For example, half-roll and half-sphere are used to make large two-room camping tents. Sealing of seams A method of sealing the seams of a tent. Taped seams reliably protect the tent from water leaks. Welded seams are very reliable and durable, as they are welded with a special tape. In addition, there are tents that lack seam sealing. Basically, these are models of the lowest category. But there are also professional tents in which sealing is not required simply because they will stand above the level of rain (above the clouds). Diameter of arches (from 0.0 to 30.0 mm) The size of the arches of the tent. Depending on the required characteristics, the arcs for the frame can have different diameters. Accordingly, the thicker the arc, the stiffer they are, but at the same time less plastic. Sometimes arcs with different diameters are used. In such tents, the arches that take on the main load are thicker, and the additional ones (to keep their shape or give more stability) are somewhat thinner. Number of places (from 1 to 20) The maximum number of people who can be accommodated in the tent at the same time. Number of vestibules (from 0 to 4) A vestibule is the space that separates the room from the exit. Many modern models are equipped with it, but there are also tents without it. The tambour is usually the area between the inner tent (see. "Inner tent") and an exit, which can also have a bottom. Small vestibules are used to store things and equipment. Bottom Material Name of the material used to sew the bottom. Polyester is resistant to most acids and alkalis, to wear and tear, which allows it to be widely used in the production of the bottom of tents. Nylon is also often used for sewing tent bottoms. In the production of materials, various material processing technologies are often used. For example, Nylon Taffeta PU is polyurethane-treated to withstand a head of water pressure of 6000 mm (see "Bottom Water Resistance"). Reinforced polyethylene is mainly used for the production of the bottom of budget tents. Polyethylene has a higher specific gravity and therefore is used in the main production of camping tents (see "Purpose"). Tarpaulin is also a good material for the bottom of tents, as has a high margin of safety. PVC excludes thread connection, is a good fire-resistant, moisture- and wear-resistant material, therefore it is also often used in the production of tents. Awning material Material used for sewing a tent awning. Polyester does not lose its strength when wet, it tolerates ultraviolet radiation and sunlight well, and has high heat resistance. Tents made from this material have a longer lifespan than nylon tents. Nylon loses about 10-15% of its wet strength, is more sensitive to UV radiation and sunlight - strength decreases over time. This material is less resistant to chemicals than polyester. Membrane fabric has two seemingly incompatible qualities: "breathes" and at the same time has water-repellent properties. These properties are given to the material either by impregnation, which is applied to the fabric during production with high-temperature technology, or the thinnest film, which is glued or welded to the fabric. The combination of fabric + silicone gives tents made from this material significant advantages. These tents have a high degree of UV resistance, which is a significant advantage when used in high mountains. In addition, silicone coated fabrics are 2-3 times more durable than non-coated fabrics. Subject to the rules of operation, the tent, the awning of which has a double-sided silicone coating, can last more than 10 years. The usual tarpaulin is rarely used at the moment. Tarpaulins are heavy but inexpensive. More often in production, tarpaulin is used as a solid base with additional coatings that improve its properties. Canopy The presence of a canopy in the structure of the tent. In many camping tents, a rectangular part of the awning plays the role of a door, which can be unfastened and put on pegs, thus making an awning. Purpose Camping tents by purpose can be classified into high, mid and plain models. Highland tents are considered extreme, while midland and plain tents are subdivided into camping and trekking tents. Fishing tents can be singled out separately. Extreme tents are designed for mountain climbing and expeditions. The design of such a tent must be as rigid as possible to withstand the harsh conditions of the highlands (wind, snow). There are extreme tents for "Himalayan" and "Alpine" climbing styles. The Himalayan style implies the creation of several bases during the ascent, and with the Alpine style, stationary bases are not set up, and tents are carried with them. Camping tents are the most comfortable. They are intended for picnics, children's camps, camping sites. Such models are often equipped with mosquito nets, adjustable ventilation openings, in addition, they may have several rooms, entrances, vestibules. Trekking tents are designed for hiking or cycling trips in which weight plays a significant role. Such tents must be highly reliable and rigid, because often such trips last for weeks. Fishing tents are generally not designed for overnight stays. In it you can hide from the bad weather, relax. Fishing tents are usually compact and lightweight. Refractory impregnation The presence of a special impregnation that retards the spread of fire. To increase safety when using tents, some manufacturers impregnate the fabric with a compound that prevents the spread of fire in the event of an accidental fire. The slower spread of the fire will provide additional time to take action to combat it or to get things out of the tent. Frame type The type of frame provided for in the structure of the tent. It is more convenient to set up a tent with an outer frame, and at the same time, the inner tent does not get wet, since the awning is placed first. The inner frame design is more difficult to set up, but allows the inner tent to be set up without an awning (outer tent). Tents without a frame are stretched on two posts or on natural supports (trees, etc.). Reinforced corners Reinforced corners of the tent. The fabric from which the tent is made can rip in places of greatest stress. To reinforce the corners, inserts made of durable fabric are used, sewing in a double layer or additional stitching with slings. Storm guy wires The presence of special guy wires. Due to the larger number (compared to conventional tents) and a certain fastening scheme, such guy wires provide a high level of rigidity of the frame, which is necessary in case of stormy gusts of wind.
Description: The comfortable camping tent of the VICTORIA 10 model is one of the most spacious models. It is designed to accommodate a group of ten tourists. Three entrances give them the opportunity to use separate parts of the tent without interfering with each other. The presence of an inner tent makes it possible to close the passage to the sleeping places as conveniently as possible, so that the coolness of the night does not disturb the sleep of the sleeping people. When folded, the VICTORIA 10 camping tent weighs only 24 kilograms, which is a very good indicator for a tent of this capacity. The dimensions of the tent allow you to transport it either in the trunk of a car or in an ordinary tourist backpack. The sturdy bottom of the tent does not get wet, and the outer surface completely protects it from moisture getting inside. Another advantage of the VICTORIA 10 model is strong steel arcs inserted in the corners and in the middle into the tarpaulin. Thanks to this, the model is characterized by maximum stability. The tent reliably protects from the wind, so nothing will prevent tourists from indulging in a comfortable rest in the bosom of nature. The large VICTORIA 10 camping tent is indispensable when traveling for school groups during the holidays, and it is also an ideal choice for young people who prefer active outdoor recreation.

Technologies: Impregnation that retards the spread of fire. Seams are sealed with heat shrink tape. Tent knots under high stress are reinforced with stronger fabric. The edge of the awning is sheathed with a strong sling. The zips on the outer awning are secured with an aluminum hook. The inner tent is equipped with a mosquito net, pockets, lantern ring. The efficient ventilation system consists of three ventilation windows with mosquito nets and external zippered curtains located around the perimeter of the tent. Additional steel uprights for door curtains. Three entrances to the tent. Two large transparent windows on the roof of the tent. The inner tent is divided into 2 bedrooms 5 5 people.

These are mainly trekking and extreme tents designed for one or two travelers. Camping tents are the heaviest, as these models are often designed for a group of 4-6 people or more. Some models weigh 60 - 70 kg. These tents can accommodate up to 20 people (for more details see "Number of places"). Wind / snow skirt Presence of a protective skirt along the lower edge of the tent. A skirt is a strip of fabric around the perimeter of the tent that rests directly on the ground. It can be either sewn on or detachable. The presence of a skirt is extremely necessary when using tents in the mountains, in winter or just at low temperatures. The skirt will prevent snow or rain from penetrating into the cracks formed by the edge of the tent and unevenness in the established place. Internal pockets Internal pockets allow you to organize your space inside the tent. Inner tent The presence of an inner tent, which in some cases can be set up separately from the awning. Models with an inner tent are usually called two-layer. The outer layer (awning) is waterproof and strong, protects from rain, and the inner layer is breathable and very light. Single layer tents are lightweight and have a small volume when assembled. Their disadvantage is that condensation accumulates on the walls of the tent, while in two-layer drops they will roll down without penetrating into the living space. Water resistance of the awning (from 300 to 20,000 mm h.c.) The maximum height of the water column that the awning of the tent can withstand. This parameter determines the waterproofness of the material from which the tent is made. For areas with rare rainfall, tents with a water resistance of 500 - 3000 mm of water column are suitable. If the likelihood of rain is high, showers are possible, then it is advisable to choose tents with an awning waterproofness of more than 3000 mm in. Art. The value of this parameter can sometimes reach up to 10,000 mm in. Art. Among the disadvantages of fabrics with high water resistance can be noted a relatively greater weight and high cost. Possibility of attaching a flashlight The presence of special hooks or loops for hanging a flashlight or lamp. Most often, these hooks are attached to the upper center of the tent. Geometry Some of its properties depend on the shape of the tent. The hemisphere has excellent wind resistance, but has less living space compared to the half roll. Usually in such tents, the frame consists of two intersecting arcs. The half roll has a large internal space. In addition, usually a significant part of such a tent is set aside for a vestibule, which looks very attractive as base stations or for a long stay in nature. Gable and tent geometries are still used, but only in the production of very simple models or large tents (for expedition groups). In such a tent, you can gather in a large company.

Accordingly, the thicker the arc, the stiffer they are, but at the same time less plastic. Sometimes arcs with different diameters are used. In such tents, the arches that take on the main load are thicker, and the additional ones (to keep their shape or give more stability) are somewhat thinner. Number of ventilation windows (from 1 to 12) The presence of several such windows in a camping tent will be highly desirable, since the size of tents often allows you to cook food inside, boil water. Usually tents with several rooms (see "Number of rooms") have a separate ventilation system in each of them. Number of places (from 1 to 20) The maximum number of people who can be accommodated in the tent at the same time. Number of vestibules (from 0 to 4) A vestibule is the space that separates the room from the exit. Many modern models are equipped with it, but there are also tents without it. The tambour is usually the area between the inner tent (see "Inner Tent") and the exit, which may also have a bottom. Small vestibules are used to store things and equipment. Inner Tent Material The name of the material that the inner tent is made of (see "Inner Tent"). Nylon, produced in compliance with certain technologies (weaving, density, etc.), has the necessary strength and breathability. Polyester can also be used to sew an inner tent. It has greater strength and durability than nylon and is highly breathable. Cotton is rarely used in the production of indoor tents. This tent can be recommended for those who are allergic to synthetics. Among the advantages are also low weight and low cost. But a tent made of such a material must be thoroughly dried before storage, otherwise there is a possibility that the fabric will deteriorate. Bottom Material Name of the material used to sew the bottom. Polyester is resistant to most acids and alkalis, to wear and tear, which allows it to be widely used in the production of the bottom of tents. Nylon is also often used for sewing tent bottoms. In the production of materials, various material processing technologies are often used. For example, Nylon Taffeta PU is polyurethane-treated to withstand a head of water pressure of 6000 mm (see "Bottom Water Resistance"). Reinforced polyethylene is mainly used for the production of the bottom of budget tents. Polyethylene has a higher specific gravity and therefore is used in the main production of camping tents (see "Purpose"). Tarpaulin is also a good material for the bottom of tents, as has a high margin of safety. PVC excludes thread connection, is a good fire-resistant, moisture- and wear-resistant material, therefore it is also often used in the production of tents.

Tents made from this material have a longer lifespan than nylon tents. Nylon loses about 10-15% of its wet strength, is more sensitive to UV radiation and sunlight - strength decreases over time. This material is less resistant to chemicals than polyester. Membrane fabric has two seemingly incompatible qualities: "breathes" and at the same time has water-repellent properties. These properties are given to the material either by impregnation, which is applied to the fabric during production with high-temperature technology, or the thinnest film, which is glued or welded to the fabric.

They allow you to drain moisture from the tent, regulate the flow of fresh air. Weight (0.0 to 68.0 kg) The lightest tents weigh from 0. 8 to 2 kg. These are mainly trekking and extreme tents designed for one or two travelers. Camping tents are the heaviest, as these models are often designed for a group of 4-6 people or more. Some models weigh 60 - 70 kg. These tents can accommodate up to 20 people (for more details see "Number of places"). Wind / snow skirt Presence of a protective skirt along the lower edge of the tent.

Geometry Some of its properties depend on the shape of the tent. The hemisphere has excellent wind resistance, but has less living space compared to the half roll. Usually in such tents, the frame consists of two intersecting arcs. The half roll has a large internal space. In addition, usually a significant part of such a tent is set aside for a vestibule, which looks very attractive as base stations or for a long stay in nature. Gable and tent geometries are still used, but only in the production of very simple models or large tents (for expedition groups). In such a tent, you can gather in a large company. Non-standard models are those in which the frame structure can combine several types. For example, half-roll and half-sphere are used to make large two-room camping tents. Sealing of seams A method of sealing the seams of a tent. Taped seams reliably protect the tent from water leaks. Welded seams are very reliable and durable, as they are welded with a special tape. In addition, there are tents that lack seam sealing. Basically, these are models of the lowest category. But there are also professional tents in which sealing is not required simply because they will stand above the level of rain (above the clouds). Diameter of arches (from 0.0 to 30.0 mm) The size of the arches of the tent. Depending on the required characteristics, the arcs for the frame can have different diameters. Accordingly, the thicker the arc, the stiffer they are, but at the same time less plastic. Sometimes arcs with different diameters are used. In such tents, the arches that take on the main load are thicker, and the additional ones (to keep their shape or give more stability) are somewhat thinner. Number of places (from 1 to 20) The maximum number of people who can be accommodated in the tent at the same time. Number of guy lines (from 2 to 39) The number of guy lines in the tent. Depending on the purpose and design, the tents are equipped with a different number of side guy lines. The more guys there are, the greater the resistance of the structure to deformations from the wind (all other things being equal). But at the same time, more time is spent on setting up the tent. Number of vestibules (from 0 to 4) A vestibule is the space that separates the room from the exit. Many modern models are equipped with it, but there are also tents without it. The tambour is usually the area between the inner tent (see "Inner Tent") and the exit, which may also have a bottom. Small vestibules are used to store things and equipment.

We work with a wide variety of materials, both conventional tarpaulins and membrane materials, PVC and other specialized fabrics. When repairing tents, sealing and gluing the seams with the help of specialized sealants is carried out, a new water-repellent coating is applied, the existing frame is restored, zippers and Velcro, buttons and eyelets, as well as the rest of the fittings are changed.
Our workshop will help you replace damaged parts in your tent, such as the bottom, entrance, walls, transparent and ventilation windows, either whole or by patching. Contact us and we will help you to restore almost any tent, regardless of its damage.
Consider what problems active participants in sports tourism and recreation have to face:
Repair and replacement of the zipper of the tent
It is not so important what kind of zipper broke in the tent: entrance zipper, zipper on the flaps, zipper on the windows, the main zipper that connects to the bottom of the tent, it is important that without it your tent will no longer be able to provide you with the required protection and comfort.
Tent zipper repair is a quick, reliable and most importantly economical solution to your problem! Repair of a tent zipper can include a complete replacement of a zipper or replacement of related parts.
Repair and replacement of the tent awning

Tent Is an irreplaceable piece of equipment for any kind of serious hike. Modern models are equipped with a durable canvas and a frame made of composite materials, however, even they can be damaged during operation. As a rule, this happens on a hike, far from civilization, which means that any self-respecting tourist should know how to repair a tent in field conditions, having at hand a minimum repair kit.
Repair of the tent depends on the nature of the damage. Damage can be caused to either the coating or the framework. In the first case, we are dealing with cuts, and in the second, with deformation of the frame sections. Let's take a closer look at how repair of a tent.
How do I repair my tent?
Repair of cuts
As with repairing a rubber boat, the first step is to wipe down the cut. This is necessary to cleanse it of dirt and water. This is necessary in order to improve the contact between the surface and the patch. To be sure, you can degrease the cut with a cotton swab and alcohol or cologne.
The patch is cut so that its edges are 1 or 2 centimeters larger than the cut. The corners should be rounded so that they do not bulge. If you are lucky and you have a self-adhesive patch at hand, then just remove the protective film from it and carefully stick it on. To ensure a snug fit, glue by pulling on the fabric of the tent. Then smooth out the patch well from the center to the edges, removing air and wrinkles.
If you are unlucky and you have damaged the fabric tent, or there is simply no self-adhesive at hand, then you will need a tube of glue. Adhesives are different, therefore, before using, carefully read the instructions. As a rule, 15-20 minutes is enough for the glue to set. At this time, it is advisable to place the gluing place under the press.
When repairing cuts there is one nuance- it is better to seal large cuts with an overlap, and as a patch, of course, in extreme cases, you can use a piece of a bag from a tent - it is usually made of the same material.
Frame repair
There is always a chance breakage of frame sections... The simplest thing to do in this case is to replace the damaged part with a spare one. If only the tube from the repair kit is at hand, then you need to shape the edges of the broken knee in order to pull the tube over them. On the sides, tape, scotch tape or a strip of the same fabric for patches is glued. Above all this, the repair tube is tightly pulled. If even this tube is not there, then you can try to build it from scrap materials (can or beer cans, sticks or pegs).
What should be in a repair kit?
Usually, complete with a new tent, they immediately sell a ready-made repair kit with everything that may come in handy. According to the rules, it should include: a repair tube, a small amount of self-adhesive patches or a few pieces of fabric, as well as a tube of glue. It is better to repair ordinary fabrics using glue, especially if it is wet, dirty and damp around (self-adhesive in such conditions behave very moody).
If something is missing in the kit, then it is better to take care of it right away and buy the missing one. It happens that these kits are sold separately in travel stores, or you can assemble them yourself.
The only difficulty can arise with the repair tubing, as it is difficult to find on sale separately the tubing that would fit you in size. Then it makes sense to purchase a spare section as a whole, and it is much easier to change it.
