Are 'ALL' Avon s400's Hypalon?

Hi,

I recently purchased an Avon s400, after a long break from SIB's. There doesn't seem to be extensive info on the s400's on the net, and to me it feels that it's made of PVC, but I am unsure.

Could someone please confirm if Avon s400's are all hypalon, or are some PVC?

TIA.

I’m happy to be proved wrong but I think they were made from the original DuPont Hypalon. Good stuff, it’ll last forever if it’s been looked after!

I don't think Avon ever used anything BUT Hypalon.
