Description

J Perkins Olive Nylon Covering (2.4 sq/m), part number 5524850, is a nylon sheet covering for open-structured models and sheeted areas. Supplied in olive, it provides 2.4 square metres of covering material for model aircraft construction and finishing.

Nylon covering can be used where the covering needs to contribute strength to the model structure. It shrinks to a taut state during application and is intended to remain tensioned throughout the life of the model. This makes the material suitable for open structures and sheeted areas where a firm covering is required.

Care is needed when tightening nylon over lighter structures, as excessive tension can cause deformation. The final result can be controlled by thinning the dope or using a combination of shrinking and non-shrinking dope. This allows the modeller to manage the amount of shrinkage as the covering is applied and finished.

Specifications

JP Nylon Covering 2.4 sq/m

Nylon is suitable for open structured models and sheeted areas where strength and the very best finish is required. There is little argument that the extra time required to apply nylon is well worth while for the discerning modeller. Nylon will shrink to a very taut state and stay this way for the life of a model. In fact care needs to be taken to ensure that it does not over tighten and cause structural deformation on lighter models. Thinning the dope or using a combination of non shrinking and shrinking dope will alleviate this.

  • Colour: Varoius

JP Olive Nylon Covering (2.4 sq/m) Key Features:

  • Exceptional Structural Strength: Sourced for its superior durability, this premium nylon is the definitive choice for open-structured models and sheeted areas where maximum reinforcement is required.
  • Permanent Taut Finish: Unlike inferior materials, this nylon is specialised to shrink to a drum-tight state and remain perfectly tensioned for the entire life of the model, preventing sagging over time.
  • Generous Surface Coverage: Supplied in large 2.4 sq/m sections, providing ample material to cover significant wing spans or complex fuselage geometries in a single, seamless application.
  • Professional Aesthetic Versatility: Available in a range of colours, this covering provides a high-quality base that is highly receptive to traditional "dope" finishes for a classic, high-performance look.
  • Customisable Tension Control: The material's responsive nature allows the discerning modeller to fine-tune the final tautness through the application of shrinking or non-shrinking dopes, ensuring a perfect, distortion-free fit.
