KTM is Kodel Decorative's highest-performance PU leather collection, built for the most demanding applications in the Kodel range: motorcycle seats, sports equipment, and any surface where abrasion resistance, heat stability, and UV durability must all perform simultaneously. The 1.4-1.8 mm thickness range and 80,000+ Martindale rating make KTM the specification choice when standard upholstery grades are not sufficient.
The table below covers the key technical specifications for the KTM collection. Physical samples and full specification sheets are available on request.

Motorcycle seats face conditions that no standard furniture leather survives: direct sunlight that heats surfaces to over 80 degrees C, rain exposure, repeated friction from rider movement, and UV fading from permanent outdoor parking. KTM is tested to these conditions. The anti-slip grain surface also serves an active functional purpose for motorcycle riders, providing grip through the seating position.
the highest abrasion rating in the Kodel collection, exceeding automotive grades and making KTM suitable for the highest-friction seating applications.
the heaviest gauge in the Kodel catalogue, providing the dimensional stability that motorcycle seat formers require.
tested to the surface temperatures reached by motorcycle seats parked in direct Thailand sunlight.
the surface texture provides rider grip through active use, reducing seat movement during riding.
the highest UV rating in the Kodel range, maintaining colour under continuous outdoor exposure.

Expert Tip
For KTM applications in premium projects, always test the physical sample under your actual production conditions before committing to a full order. Confirm sewing machinability, adhesive bond strength, and surface compatibility with your finishing process.
KTM leather has a PU coating that resists water penetration under normal rain conditions. It is not fully submersible and prolonged immersion will eventually allow moisture ingress at seams. For motorcycle applications, the surface itself is water-resistant and dries quickly, making it suitable for outdoor use in Thai weather conditions.
The standard KTM specification for motorcycle seat covers is 1.4 mm, which provides the abrasion resistance and durability required for rider contact surfaces. The 1.8 mm grade is used for off-road bikes and applications with particularly heavy wear expectations. Contact the Kodel team for application-specific advice.
Yes. KTM's high Martindale rating and easy-clean surface make it a strong choice for gym bench padding, weight machine seats, and equipment covering. The material resists sweat, cleaning chemicals, and the repeated friction of gym use.
KTM is the correct specification for motorcycle seats. It has a higher Martindale rating (80,000+ vs 60,000+), greater thickness (1.4-1.8 mm vs 1.0-1.4 mm), and higher heat resistance (100 degrees C vs 90 degrees C). AUTO BLACK is designed for enclosed automotive interiors; KTM is designed for outdoor motorcycle and sports applications.
