DustTamer™ Fabric: This fabric is specifically designed for use as a wind reduction material. It is knitted from an industrial grade woven polyester, resistant to UV rays, in-climate weather and temperature extremes. Its unique ability to be stretched and tensioned to over 500lbs. of pull prevents "flagging" of the material and consequential damage due to abrasion.
The standard fabric width is 90cm (35.5 inch) wide and is available in forest green or desert tan colors. The fabric is generally installed horizontally, spanning support columns as wide as 20 feet apart.
Stand Off Brackets: We provide specially designed metal brackets to "stand off" the fabric from the support columns. This prevents the fabric from coming in contact with sharp edges or rough surfaces that I-beams and wood poles may have.
Stand Off Brackets also make installation easier by providing a material that is thin enough (1/8 inch) to allow self drilling/tapping attachment screws to penetrate the metal without pre-drilling, when attaching the fabric to the support columns.
Lockbars: Aluminum Lockbars are available in 90 cm (35.5 inch) length. They are used to "pinch" the wind screen fabric against the stand off brackets. The lockbars are pre-drilled to accommodate (15) #10 self drilling/tapping screws per bar.
Attachment Screws: (15) #10-3/4" long, self drilling/tapping hex head screws are provided per each lockbar.
Tie Wraps: UV resistant nylon wire ties are the most common ties that we supply for tying runs of fabric together. These ties are similar to what one uses to tie wire bundles together and are self locking.
