    2.2 oz HEX70 XL is a 70 denier nylon designed specifically for higher strength, durability, and abrasion resistance compared to standard 1.9 oz, 70D fabrics.

    Like the other fabrics in our XL line, we've custom woven HEX70 to be WIDER than standard fabrics at ~74" versus the more common 60" width.

    HEX70 XL is offered in two finishes (select from dropdown above):

    1) Breathable w/ DWR - Widebody hammocks, bags, lightweight clothing, or any application where durable yet relatively lightweight fabric is needed. Uncoated but water repellent.

    2) PU3000/DWR - Backpacks, robust tarps/shelters, bags, dry sacks, or any application needing a durable yet relatively lightweight waterproof material. ~1 oz urethane coating on back, DWR front. Highly waterproof and non-breathable.

    When ordering HEX70 fabric, please select your finish with the drop-down above.

    If you're unsure which finish is best for your application, check out our FAQ page for quick answers. You can also submit a question through our Contact Us page. We're always happy to give advice on the right fabric!

    Sold by the Yard. For example, enter a quantity of "3" to receive three linear yards of material, measuring three yards (108") in length by the listed width of the material (check specs tab).

2.2 oz HEX 70 XL

Hello,
this is my go to liners. There was these marks throughout the ripstop. It was on approximately 4 yards of the ripstop. Not sure if it is a defect. The rest of the yardage was okay. I'm not sure how to send a picture to you. Maybe I can text you the marks. Is there a cell that I can send it to?
thanks

Snow skirt

This worked perfect for adding a snow skirt to my OneTigris ROCDOMUS Hot Tent. Strong enough to hold the snow and strong enough to handle being pulled out from days of thaw and freeze.

Thanks for the great review Micah! That sounds like an amazing use of this material and we are glad it worked out for you. 2.2 Hex 70 is a strong fabric that is a great for lot of applications. Modifying your gear and making it yours is what DIY is all about! Thanks again.

Hammocks and more

I found this fabric a few years ago, and have been making stuff out of it ever since. Its perfect for a gathered end hammock, double up with 2 layers and its weight capacity is truly awesome. As a 6'6 265lb man, with 3 kids who like to pile on him in the morning, the weight capacity and durability is welcome. Ive now made a bunch of hammocks over the last 4-5 years, and none of them are showing any wear after extensive use... I'm only replacing them because the kids out grew their old hammocks.
I would reccomend this to anybody starting out in hammocking or DIY in general... Ive used this stuff for tarps (get the PU coated, or be prepared to coat it yourself) stuff sacks, shelters and more...

Hey Robbie! Thanks for the great review and tips. 2.2 Hex 70 XL DWR is a great fabric for hammocks especially when you need a heavier duty piece of equipment. Its extremely reliable and durable. Thanks again for the great review we hope you get a lot more use out of your hammocks.

Good waterproof fabric

I ordered this fabric for a waterproof cloak, and it was great for my needs. It shipped fast. It’s waterproof, lightweight, and feels pretty durable. It sows nicely; however, it is important to dial in the tension on your machine with a few test strips, because the fabric isn’t stretchy at all. Haven’t run into any issues with it yet.

Thank you for your review! We're glad to hear that our 2.2 oz HEX70 XL fabric worked well for your waterproof cloak. We appreciate your tip about dialing in the tension on your machine and are happy to hear that you haven't encountered any issues with the fabric. Thank you for choosing our product!

2.2 hex 20 xl

Just received it. In the dark olive the thicker thread in the small honeycomb appear golden. The fabric has a bit of stiffness that will make it easy to sew, it is not too noisy when I run my fingernails across it, and it feels pretty tough and durable. Some light gets through it. Will make good gear bags.

Thanks for the review Bernard! We're glad you're happy with the product. This fabric is a great choice for gear bags, we would love to see your project shared with us on Instagram.

Great kit, made my first Hammock! Then made another.

I’ve been hammock camping for years using too short of a hammock. I wanted an 11-12’ but didn’t want to dump hundreds of dollars into it. I really enjoyed making this and took it camping the next 2 weekends! It was really comfortable. The next week my daughter and I made a purple one out of the royal purple 1.6 hyperD for her. She can’t wait till next weekend to use it.

Thanks for the review James! We love to hear a great DIY story especially when family is involved. The great part about making your own gear is making it exactly to your specifications and being able to enjoy using it just as much as you did making it. I hope you guys have many great camping experiences in your future!

2.2 Hex 70

Being a bigger person at 240lbs, I chose the Hex70 material for my hammock. It's strong and still has a bit of stretch for comfort. It's also smooth and soft. Its easy to sew on my old Singer 201-2 using mara70 thread. Well pleased with the material.

We're glad to hear that the HEX70 XL hammock material is strong and comfortable, and easy to sew on. Thanks for taking the time to write this!

Outdoor gear

This was my first time working with outdoor specific fabrics. I started small with a Fanny pack from LearnMYOG. The fabrics from rbtr arrived quickly and were a good match for my project. Very high quality and easy to sew. I’ll be back for more!

Thanks Jean! A fanny pack is a great project to start with. We hope it inspired you to keep making your own gear. Try some of our kits if you're interested in easy to sew projects. I recommend the tote bag kit!

Shock cord

I just replaced the shock cord in my tent poles with new material from rip stop by the roll. If the new cord is good quality and lasts at least five years, I can bump up this review rating to five stars, however, if I have to replace the cord again in a couple of years. I’ll bump it down a few stars. Shipping was fast, and the order was processed efficiently.

Thanks for your review, Daniel! Let us know how the shock cord holds up for your tent poles and Happy Camping!

Great for Paramotor stuff

As a new Paramotor pilot, I needed a bag to transport my machine's hoop parts, propeller, and hoop spars all in one place, while protecting them in transit. I used two layers of 2.2oz Hex70 with a layer of 1/8" felt in between them. The fabric is strong and cuts easily. The white takes Dye really well and I tie-dyed mine too match the colors of my BGD paraglider. With a couple of zippers and a handle made from 1" polyester strap, the bag looks great and keeps my stuff protected. Check it out on Instagram @rule1dontgosplatIG or on youtube @rule1dontgosplat

2.2 oz HERX70 XL Review

Fabric was used as test to replace fabric on old aluminum cots for a boy scout troop. It was not necessarily recommended, but after research seemed worth a try. The fabric was doubled, edges bound with grosgrain ribbon and carefully installed to avoid hinges. Big success so far - will do a few overnights before doing the remaining 40+ cots. IF YOU DO THIS TYPE OF WORK - USE LONG BASTING STITCHES UNTIL CORRECT FIT IS ACHIEVED, then finish stitch - I learned the hard way!

I'm glad the fabric worked well and the scout troop is happy with the new cots! Using long-basting stitches until the fit is correct is a good idea. Enjoy!

Super good stuff

Really good quality stuff. Made myself a hunting saddle with it, and it is super light weight. Hopefully it stands the test of time as I'm suspended 20+ ft in the trees with it occasionally.

Don't worry, if I fall and die I'll update my review.

Thanks for making us laugh! We certainly hope you don't die. It's used all the time for hammocks and has a weight rating of 400 lbs. If you take any photos, be sure to share them with us on social media. We'd love to see your MYOG hunting saddle!

Very light, strong. Packing cubes etc.

Lighter than I expected. Be sure to cut each piece completely. Leaving even a thread attached when cutting out your pattern will cause a thread pull through the piece. As long as you are careful cutting out your pieces it’s great. I used most of what I bought to make packing cubes. I mostly use 500-1000d cordura fabrics so this was a change of pace but was still easy to work with as a beginner. Love it!

2.2 oz HEX70 is a favorite here! Thanks for the tip on working with this fabric. We'd love to see photos of the packing cubes you made, be sure to tag us on social media!

Very good tear resistance for hammocking tarp

I used this Hex 2.2 XL nylon PU to make an extra wide, heavy duty winter tarp for my backyard hammock site. I live on a stormy ridge in NC with frequent 40mph and occasional 60mph winds. My 1.1 silpoly tarp has been torn several times by wind and my UL 0.9 silpoly was recently eviscerated beyond repair. The Hex 2.2 tarp is a little bulkier, 3 times heavier but much much tougher. The Hex 2.2 sews great compared to the lighter silpoly. For long distance backpacking, my 1.1 silpoly is a lighter option, although the Hex 2.2 is an option. But for my long term, exposed backyard site, I love the reliability of the Hex 2.2. Thank you RSBTR for great service, technical specs and a wide variety of quality products.

Thanks for your review, David! The 2.2 oz HEX70 is definitely more abrasion resistant and should hold up much better against stormy weather. Anything in the UL weight class <1.0 oz is more delicate and requires more care and precautions. We'd love to see photos of your tarps, be sure to tag us on instagram!

Works perfectly!

I purchased this as a tent darkening layer. I needed some thing that Would make my bright yellow tent dark enough for my kids to nap in there without making the tent super hot. I emailed the team at Ripstop by the Roll to ask what they recommend And followed their recommendation to get this. This seems to do the trick but the final test will be when we take it out this weekend.

We're glad we could help you find what you were looking for! Thanks for leaving us a review and happy camping!

Great Fabric, Dries Fast

Because the dimensions needed were not the normal size for a shower curtain, (108” high by 72” wide), I bought several yards of this fabric to use as a liner for a shower curtain in our newly remodeled bathroom. The fabric was easy to work with, all I did was cut to size, create the necessary hems, then hung it. Done.

The fabric is very light weight and dries very quickly. Perfect stuff for what I needed it for.

What a fantastic idea! We would love to see photos of your shower curtain, be sure to tag us on social media!
