Bsc Preferred 700517 Blue Medium Duty Tarp 16x20 Ft

Product Description

The BSC PREFERRED 700517 is a medium duty polyethylene tarpaulin measuring 16 by 20 feet, suited for general-purpose weather and UV protection across a wide range of job site and outdoor applications. Constructed from polyethylene with a 10 x 8 weave pattern and lamination applied to both sides, the tarp delivers reliable coverage against rain, wind, and sun exposure. A polypropylene rope is heat sealed into the peripheral hem, reinforcing the edges for secure tie-down and reducing the risk of tearing along the border. The blue coloring aids visibility on site and is standard for medium duty tarps in this category.

This tarp is commonly used by contractors, maintenance crews, and trade professionals for covering materials, equipment, and work areas during construction, roofing, plumbing, and HVAC service calls. At 16 by 20 feet, it provides substantial coverage for staging areas, outdoor storage, and temporary weatherproofing of exposed rooflines or mechanical equipment. It is also well suited for pool and spa service professionals needing to protect equipment pads or cover surrounding materials during maintenance visits.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose medium duty tarp suitable for job site, construction, and outdoor equipment protection applications where a 16 by 20 foot coverage area is required.

Installation Notes

Secure the tarp using the perimeter grommets with appropriate rope, bungee cords, or tie-down straps rated for the load and weather conditions expected. Ensure the tarp is pulled taut to prevent pooling of water, which can accelerate wear and create hazards. Inspect grommets and hem stitching periodically and replace the tarp if tears or delamination are observed near anchor points.
