Product Description
The HR4788 Pawl is a critical mechanical component on the Pioneer Rack and Pinion Tarp System. It engages with the HR2010 saw tooth ratchet gear to control and regulate the rotation of the roller. It functions by engaging with the ratchet's teeth, allowing the roller to rotate in one direction for tarp deployment while preventing reverse motion, thereby enabling the internal spring to store mechanical energy as torsion. This stored energy is crucial for retracting the tarp once deployment is complete. The pawl ensures smooth operation and enhances safety by preventing unintended roll-backs or sudden retractions of the tarp.
This is the pawl only, not the full HR4788KIT pawl mounting assembly.
