What is the Siltarp 3?
The Siltarp 3 is a tarp shelter that fits three to five people underneath.
A lightweight alternative to a full tent, tarp shelters are ideal for those who want to feel a little closer to nature when camping yet still want coverage from the elements.
What is it made from?
Rab has constructed the Siltarp 3 using Cordura 30D siliconised nylon with a PU coating, which provides 2000mm hydrostatic head (HH) of waterproof protection from those pesky downpours.
Cordura 300D nylon reinforces the tarp on high wear areas, such as the corners and central guy points.
What are its features?
The Siltarp 3 is ideal for those who want to carry a minimal load on their backpacking adventures due to its super lightweight, packable nature. The tarp works well for between three and five people depending on the set up of the camp, with 3 metres by 3.66 metres of tarp providing 11m² of coverage.
There are 20 external guy points made from lightweight webbing to attach and tie guylines to secure the shelter, alongside one central lifter point for additional support with a ridgeline. All webbing points are double bartacked to help improve the strength and durability of the shelter and attachment points.
Included is a packable stuffsack, making it easy to sling back into the bag and crack on with your day. Wave goodbye to wasting precious time mind boggling over how all of that fabric managed to fit into that tiny bundle in the first place (we know the feeling!).
