What happens here

A demonstration compares the rip resistance of common outdoor workwear (12oz Cotton Duck) against Milwaukee's Gridiron Ripstop Polyester. A steel spike is used to try and tear both materials. While the Cotton Duck tears easily, the Gridiron Ripstop Polyester shows significantly greater resistance to tearing, proving its enhanced durability for work environments.

Goal: Compare the rip resistance of Milwaukee workwear fabrics against common alternatives

Tools and materials

  • 12oz Cotton Duck Fabric Sample — For comparison of rip resistance
  • Steel Spike — Testing rip resistance

What they say

what happens pretty straightforward right any jackets ruined so now let's look at Milwaukee gridiron ripstop polyester take a faint crack of doing the same thing oh so yes you can rip it but if you're still trying to get out of that nail it's probably on you and not so much after quartering tools all day long it's time to do something else like finally track down Steve
