    This is a rugged, highly abrasion resistant fabric that can handle a beating. Great for reinforcing high-wear areas or creating bomb-proof gear that can take anything you throw at it.

    Typical applications include work wear, backpacks, briefcases, luggage, chairs, elevated pet beds, horse blankets, and a variety of custom cases and covers.

Durable!

The material is very durable, makes great bum protectors for canyoneering harnesses and rope bags. Both take quite a beating in a canyon and the fabric holds up well!

Great material

I made some bike bags with this and it is really nice material to work with. For those of you with questions about machines like I had, it sews easily on my Janone HD3000. Two layers of this with webbing was not an issue. As for durability, it beads water nicely and has a slight sheen to it that I like more than cordura aesthetically, though you can only get this in black. Overall, it's strong and has held up to rain and some scrapes without issue.

Thanks for your review and for sharing your feedback! I know others will find your review helpful because sewing thicker fabric can be intimidating. Happy Sewing and Biking!

1680d ballistic nylon

Made a generator cover out of it, sewed great and the father in-law was happy 😃

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review Jordan! We're so glad that the 1680D Ballistic Nylon was easy to sew and that you got to make your father in-law something custom! I'm sure he was impressed.

Good stuff

I recently made a toolpack for a FS wilderness crew. I think this 1680 is going to hold up to many years of abuse.

Awesome! We would love to see the tool pack you made. We know how hard the FS crews work and it was great you could make them something functional to hopefully make their job a little easier. Here is a link if you'd like to share any photos with us, we'd love to see! https://forms.gle/1xNyCSfYJ976vwS9A

I didn’t get it in time for a school project I was working on (which I was supposed to) and the Route app didn’t actually give me accurate updates. Very happy with the material though and will use for future projects.

Great Fabric

This material is heavy, thick, and still more flexible than I was expecting. So far it has been easy to work with.

Great company-Shipping methods Questionable

I understand that shipping to Alaska is a little more expensive but $45 dollars to ship a $95 dollar order is ridiculous. I’m upset that I will have to use big retailers now on to avoid this big shipping expense.

This fabric is tough.

Used the 1680D Ballistic Nylon for the bottom of a duffle bag, (the rest was X33 Multicam), and this stuff feels sooo strong. Highly recommend this if you're looking for a heavy duty and heavy fabric that can take a beating.

Dog vest

Great stuff. Used it on the bottom straps for my dogs hunting vest. Perfect choice since she's always barreling off trail. I doubt many other fabrics would hold up to her abuse. Very durable and smooth (easy cleaning).

Can i iron on initials on a bag made with this?

Ripstop by the Roll

Hi! You'd need to experiment, possibly by ordering a sample first, but we've had other customers successfully apply iron-on patches and things of that nature.

This material is called 1680D Ballistic Nylon. Does this material comply with a ballistic material testing standard? If so, then what ballistic test standard does it comply with?

Ripstop by the Roll

For this material, the word "Ballistic" refers to the weave. The material itself is not bullet proof. We do not carry any materials with bullet proof properties.
