The Magnum Wall Tent is the toughest, most durable wall tent available on the market today. Every tent manufacturer claims to have the best canvas tents, so we put our canvas to the test. We hired an independent lab to compare the strength of our 12.5oz Magnum canvas to the 10.10oz canvas used by other tent manufacturers. The lab tested the breaking strength using the ASTM D 5034 Grab Method, which tests the strength in 2 directions (called warp and fill). Independent, objective lab results don't lie:
|
12.5oz Magnum |
10.10oz Sunforger |
10.10oz Imported |
|
| Warp Strength |
389 lbs | 216 lbs | 202 lbs |
| Fill Strength |
241 lbs | 153 lbs | 140 lbs |
The Bottom Line: Our 12.5oz double-fill Magnum canvas is 68% stronger than the 10.10oz Sunforger used by most manufacturers.
The 12.5oz Magnum double-fill canvas is by far your best choice when it comes to choosing a canvas wall tent. In addition to its durability, they will hold the heat and keep the weather out better than a lighter weight tent. Magnum Wall Tents come standard with just about every feature you could want in a canvas wall tent. If you're looking for a tent that will last you a lifetime, then look no further.

"I thought my tent was supposed to be mildew proof" is the comment we frequently receive.....
