| One Piece
Polycarbonate (LEXAN ®) Design - A
durable thermoplastic commonly known as
LEXAN® that is UV treated for protection
from the sun. |
Vinyl
- Vinyl glued or stapled to aluminum slats.
|
| Strength
- The cover is reinforced with up to 20
tempered aluminum support beams embedded
every 4 3/4", which will hold 200
lbs. and can easily support heavy snow
loads. The cover is strong enough to stand
on (not recommended). |
Strength
- The cover will withstand a concentrated
load of about 120 pounds. A light
snow load, is tolerated. |
| Sealed Ball-bearing
Rollers - Sealed ball-bearing rollers
mounted onto each end of the aluminum
support beams allow the cover to retract
or close easily without the use of springs
or any kind of mechanism. Anti-bind
ball-bearings mounted horizontally prevent
the cover from binding as it is opened
or closed. |
Wear Strip
- Top and bottom rail wear strips. |
| Spiral Track
Storage System - Unique spiral track
system that prevents the cover from touching
itself as it retracts, which eliminates
wear-and-tear on the cover. No moving
parts to jam, freeze or fail. |
Spring Loaded
Drum - Cover rolls up on top of itself
on a spring loaded drum similar
to a window shade. |
| Lockable
In Any Position Along The Rail - Cover
can be latched or key locked in any position
along the rail. Tailgate works independently
of the rolling cover. |
Locking
Positions Every 12" - Intermittent
locking positions every 12 inches. Tailgate
works independently of the rolling cover. |
| Lock Handle

at the rear on the driver's side, provides
easy access when opening and closing the
cover. |
Pull Strap

and grab a tow strap, walk back to the
truck and pull the cover back. |
| Tailgate
Area - The RETRAX™ bed cover overlaps
the top of the tailgate utilizing an automotive
grade weather strip seal. |
Tailgate
Area - The cover meets up with
the inside face of the tailgate. Water
runs down the inside face of the tailgate. |
| Weather
Protection - The patented RETRAX ™
low-profile design uses a front cover
that is flush with the rolling cover;
this streamlines the overall appearance
and provides a firm, dependable seal to
help keep the bed dry. This design incorporates
automotive grade weather strip to keep
water, snow, ice and dust out of the bed.

Weather
Protection - Water is channeled to
the rails and canister. The water must

of your truck. |
