The best way to identify a true thickness 20 mil vapor barrier is to look at the products weight.
For instance 1 mil to 6 mil construction grade polyethylene sheeting in the construction aisle is the lowest grade of polyethylene sheeting available on the market.

Class ii vapor retarder.
A perm rating of 1 0 for any material is defined as follows.
In the polyethylene film industry the weight is measured in pounds per 1000 square feet or msf.
Because of its good weatherability chemical inertness and toughness poly america s polyethylene sheeting has successfully been used for over 20 years in a wide variety of applications.
The one exception to this statement is the labor intensive process of laminating multiple layers more than 6 in a plywood style stacking to get a lower perm rating.
Perm is a quantitative value that measures the relative ease with which moisture water vapor will pass through a material.
Plastic sheets made into tarps are available on a custom basis.
Astm e 1745 currently specifies the maximum permeance rating of a vapor retarder to be 0 1 perms and that it be measured by either e 96 or f 1249 standard test method for water vapor transmission rate through plastic film and sheeting using a modulated infrared sensor.
It is made from up to 25 post consumer recycled goods reground resins and the absolute least expensive resins that can be bought from any source in any location across the globe.

These membranes have a permeance level that equals between 0 1 perm and 1 perm.
As such they are considered as semi impermeable products.
