Interglass is based where?

Is there any "standard" means of describing cloth?

Does 92125 mean anything or is it a part number?

As usual my eternal problem is getting stuff in sunny Bogota!!

For example the cloth that Andy suggested is ACS part number 7781 described
as "8.92 oz per sq yard medium weight standard industrial cloth thread count
60x54 strength 350x330 lb/in"  is this a standard way of describing cloth?

Would any cloth fulfilling these characteristics do?

Rutan chose it because it was used for gliders in Germany. Probably 
still is, 92125, it's made by Interglas and it's a 2 by 2 twill (for 
drape). The UNI we use is 92145.
I recently ( 4 years ago!) bought half a roll of BID from a supplier in 
Germany but haven't yet re found the details. Price was very good 
compared to UK prices.
