2/ What is the difference between a classic PVC fabric and the Orca neoprene Hypalon fabric? Advantages and disadvantages.

PVC is a thermoplastic while neoprene hypalon is a synthetic rubber.

PVC is plastic equipment, easily industrializable with a low product cost but which also leads to some disadvantages compared to the Orca Hypalon.

It is true that the hypalon because of its raw material is slightly more expensive than PVC, but over time, this difference is important.

The advantages of PVC are:

• The price
• The weight

The advantages of the Orca neoprene hypalon:

• UVS resistance
• Longevity (a hypalon float can hold up to 25 years well maintained)
• Resistance to extreme temperatures, ideal for tropical areas
• Resistance to folding, shock, friction and abrasion
• ease of repair thanks to the material and collages that are made in cold
• Hydrocarbon resistance

• The resale price The disadvantages of PVC are:

• UV sensitivity and aging
• more difficult repairs
• Not recommended for intensive use
• The resale price

The drawbacks of the hypalon are:

• The weight
• The purchase price

If you want to have a boat that can be easily repaired, be more resistant to the elements and keep a high resale price, the choice of hypalon is to be promoted.
Hypalon can last for many years if it is well maintained with Orca (New Magic / Shmuffex / Gomemp100) products.

3/ What range of Orca fabric to choose for my semi-rigid boat?

The main criterion to remember in the choice of your fabric is the length of your pneumatic boat but it is also preferable to reuse the same quality as the initial fabric (your dealer can help you).

Boats less than 5 meters long: Orca 820 or Orca 828
Boats less than 6 meters long: Orca 828 or Orca 866
Boats over 6 meters long: Orca 866
Boats over 10 meters long: Orca 859

Our range of neoprene cut fabrics is made up of 4 products of products, provided for different semi-rigid boats.
