IP WATERPROOF RATING


The IP initials stand for Ingress Protection and are followed by two digits. The first digit indicates level of protection against intrusion. The second digit is an indication of protection against water. When an 'X' replaces a digit, it means that the particular specification does not apply to the object. IP rating is used to specify the level of protection of a product against intrusion of foreign bodies (such as solid objects and dust) and various forms of moisture (such as drips, splashes and submersion). Besides the IPX8 Frogman series, most of Hypergear products are rated IPX6 (IP66).

THE MATERIALS

THE MATERIALS

TARPAULIN. CLASSIC. DURABLE.

Generally, when people think of dry bags, the common tarpaulin type comes to mind. The physical and chemical properties of the material itself contribute largely to this material being the most commonly used material in making waterproof bags.

Many of Hypergear dry bags and backpacks are made of durable, hard-wearing and long-lasting 500D PVC tarpaulin and have been known to last for as long as 8 years.
