CANVAS AVAILABLE FOR CIVIL WAR TENTS

  • 10.1 oz Army Duck Double Fill Marine Grad : Each Civil War Tent is treated for mildew and water resistance. Will not shrink more than 1- 2%.
  • 10.1 oz Army Duck Double Fill Marine Grade Fire Resistant: Same as above but also treated to resist fire. Fire resistant civil war tents will only burn if there is a continuous flame against the canvas.

FIRE RESISTANT CANVAS: Meets CPAI 84 fire retardant code. If a tent is not specifically treated for fire resistance it will burn quickly. Fire Resistant canvas will only burn when there is a flame source present on the canvas. When you remove the flame source the wall tent will stop burning. However, there is no wall tent made that will not burn.
