Finer Tension Adjustment On longer applications, high-strength steel alloy pivot shafts feature a milled hexagonal shape for finer tension adjustments than square profiles commonly used in the industry. The cast steel hexagonal pivot connector is also nickel-chrome plated for lasting corrosion resistance and lasting good looks.
Increased Corrosion Resistance The 1-piece extruded aluminum arms and windshield are anodized to reduce wear and scratching while providing improved corrosion resistance that you don’t get with regular polished aluminum arms. (If arm length is over 14', arms will not be finished.) All exposed steel components and brackets are plated for increased corrosion protection.
Arm Options For shorter applications that need to clear doors or loading areas, the arms come with a 2-foot, 30-degree bend. On longer applications, the system comes standard with straight arms.
Standard Electric System The Arm-Matic™ comes standard with our Durabuilt™ motor backed by a 3-year limited warranty. All wiring, cable ties and connectors necessary for installation are included in the system when you receive it. The standard electric system also comes with a rocker switch that can be mounted in the cab for safe, reliable operation.
Gatorshield® Tough A 2-piece assembly allows the crossover/tarp tube to be custom fit to any width trailer. Built from strong Gatorshield® galvanized steel tubing, the elbows provide a strong transition from the arms to the tarp tube while keeping corrosion resistance in mind.
