We decided to add this coating as many of our tents are used every day of the year by safari type companies and as permanent accommodation, and often in the north of Australia during the wet season. This additional coating in combination with one of our storm covers makes our tents possibly the most tear resistant and waterproof tent on the market today.

To withstand Australia’s harsh conditions, it is vital that the material be extremely water resistant, can be fully enclosed to repel dust, and most importantly be manufactured with additional reinforcing on all stress joints including double stitching throughout. This new 13oz Rip Stop Canvas Camper Tent is also far superior to conventional canvas tents. At a size of 14ft x 15 ft total covered area, there’s plenty of room for the whole family. It weighs in at 125Kgs and is light enough to be towed on a 7ft x 4ft trailer behind a small to average sized family car, and for those intending to go off-road there is a unique cover provided to totally seal off the tent from exposure to dust and rain, particularly when driving.

The ’9′ tent’ has our new design where all 3 bows are conveinently hinged from the bed base allowing set up by 1 person in 5 minutes (tent only if zipping off annex roof) or 10-15 minutes the complete tent. This new ‘ADVENTURER’ model incorporates many additional features as standard equipment and not as extras, which enables us to offer you a top quality, fully optioned, complete package at a very competitive price.

WHAT IS AUTHENTIC ‘RIP STOP CANVAS’

The canvas incorporates interwoven “rip stop” reinforcement threads in a “crosshatch pattern”, so the material resists ripping or tearing. Other rip stop products such as a nylon rip stop are used in the manufacture of hot air balloons, yacht sails and spinnakers, parachutes, and even Nomex protective clothing for riot police. Authentic rip stop canvas was traditionally always too expensive to incorporate into camper trailer tents and was primarily used in military tents throughout the world. Advances in technology and increased manufacture abilities, has now led to a more competitively priced product.

There are many different designs and qualities of Camper Trailer Tents on the market today, and often the price dictates the quality, similar to any product. However, there are certain specifications whilst little extra cost at manufacturing level can make the difference between a trouble free and comfortable camping experience, for many years to come, and a short lived camping nightmare.

Throughout the years in this industry as specialists in Camper Trailers and camper Tents, we have listened to what our customers have to say, their ideas, comments and suggestions. We welcomed feedback.
As our tents are used on a daily basis by Camping Companies, Tour Companies, and Safari based adventure Companies from Cape York to the Tiwi Islands, by families in the school holidays, and retirees on extended holidays, a culmination of all this feedback led to the final design of our new 9′ Tent.

The doors (front, rear, and annex wall door) are also ‘U’ shaped instead of the usual ‘D’ shaped doors. There is a canvas ‘U’ shaped door and a micro mesh ‘U’ shaped door at each entrance, both with double zips. The benefits are as follows.

The doors are easy to roll from the bottom to the top and vice versa rather than from right to left, where it can take two people to roll across due to the size of the door.
3 of the doors are ‘U’ shaped and have a sewn in valance above them to deflect the rain, and stop the doors getting wet.
The doors are much larger allowing easier access (no tripping over the door edges) and allows much more airflow.
The doors all have a canvas strip which covers and protects the zip, stopping rain getting into the tent. With the original ‘D’ shaped doors as seen on 99% of tents, the zip is exposed to the elements, and if it rains heavily it can leak into the tent particularly through the rear door and annex door.

Water Test

We recently conducted a simple water test on our canvas. We made a suitable frame, then added 100 litres of water which is equal to 100kgs in weight. We allowed to sit for an hour and not one drop of water seeped through showing exceptional water proofing abilities. After one hour water started to slowly seep through which was inevitable due to the volume of water and weight and the fact that all cotton canvas breaths. It is certainly unlikely that you would ever be able to have this amount of water concentrated in one area of any tent, but wanted to take the test to the extreme to highlight both strength and waterproofing abilities.

Storm Cover/Roof Protector

Custom Storm Cover / roof protector covers the complete roof area of both the tent and annex roof, and comes complete with 12 steel buckles (‘D’rings) sewn in for guy roping down. It is made from oxford polyester 210D which is top quality, and is used in the manufacture of roof top tents.
The cover enables you to camp under trees without worrying about sap or bird droppings etc, which ultimately may ruin the canvas. the cover can cool down the tent by up to 5 degrees, and will also allow you to be out in a storm. It will also reduce condensation. An inexpensive means of protecting your investment. Retails $169 or $99 with any purchase of an Austrack tent. This cover is also available at $99 to all current Austrack Camper owners.

Frame And Board Size

Suits trailer sizes 7 x 4, 6 x 4, 7 x 5. The required height from the ground to the top of the trailer needs to be 1000mm-1080mm with optimum height of 1050mm. Please call us for advice for fitting to trailers with a greater height. Steel bed board frame is POWDER COATED, will not rust.
