WHY THIS PANEL
Smoke tint reduces midday glare and heat buildup while keeping the view through the wall. Less interior shimmer, balanced ambient light, no loss of outside visibility.
The panel is rated to 3,000 mm hydrostatic head — higher than the Cubex 2.8 base body's 2,000 mm. TPU is inherently more waterproof than fabric.
The panel base fabric carries F/R (flame retardant) treatment. The Cubex 2.8 base body is not F/R-rated — this panel adds the safety property the body lacks.
One panel per side. Two F2M units convert two side walls; four units enclose the full perimeter in clear-view TPU configuration. Buy the quantity that matches your setup.
WHAT IT DOES
WATERPROOF
The Cubex 2.8 base body is 75D ripstop at 2,000 mm hydrostatic head. This TPU window is 3,000 mm — 50% higher waterproof rating where the panel sits, since TPU resists water inherently better than fabric.
SAFETY
The TPU base fabric is F/R (flame retardant) treated. If you cook adjacent or set up near stove areas, this panel is the side wall to face that direction.

Specifications
Compatibility
Designed only for the Monterra Cubex 2.8 Air Shelter (Void Midnight). Vendor does not list cross-compatibility with other Monterra shelter sizes.
Advanced details
Monterra warrants the panel against material and workmanship defects for 1 year from purchase. Covers TPU clarity, fabric seam integrity, and coating performance. Excludes wear from sharp folding, abrasion, or solvent contact.
Store flat or rolled — never folded sharply. Sharp folds create stress lines in TPU that crack over time. Clean with damp cloth and mild soap; rinse with clean water. Avoid solvents (acetone, alcohol, paint thinner) — these damage TPU clarity. Air dry fully before storage.
The F2M panel base fabric carries F/R (flame retardant) treatment. The Cubex 2.8 base body (F1M) is NOT flame-retardant — vendor's standard tent disclaimer warns against open flame inside or adjacent. The F2M adds the F/R property to the side panel it occupies; use it as the side facing your stove or cooking area for added safety.

One panel covers one side. The Cubex 2.8 has four side walls, so two panels convert two sides, four panels enclose the full perimeter in clear-view configuration. Buy the quantity that matches your intended layout.
Yes — the panel is rated to 3,000 mm hydrostatic head versus the Cubex 2.8 base body's 2,000 mm. TPU is inherently more waterproof than the ripstop fabric used in the base body.
F/R (flame retardant) treatment is applied to the panel base fabric. The Cubex 2.8 base body is NOT flame-retardant per vendor's standard tent fire-safety disclaimer. The F2M panel adds that property where it sits.
Smoke tint filters direct sun without blocking the view — less interior glare during midday, less heat buildup, more balanced ambient light. The view stays visible; the glare drops.
Store flat or rolled — sharp folds can crack TPU over time. Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Avoid solvents (they damage clarity). Air dry fully before storage to prevent mold buildup at the TPU-fabric seams.
FROM THE CURATOR
"The F/R treatment is the part most buyers will skip past, but it is the most useful detail on the spec sheet. The Cubex 2.8 base body is explicitly not flame-retardant — vendor's own fire-safety disclaimer says so. If you camp with a stove, a heater, or any kind of open flame nearby, the F2M is the panel that should face the cook area. The 3,000 mm waterproof rating is the bonus on top. Smoke tint is a small design choice that lands well in real use — clear TPU often looks plastic-y and gets dazzlingly bright at midday, and the smoke filter solves both. Single-parent compatibility means this only fits the Cubex 2.8, so the SKU lives or dies with that base shelter."
