This Aluminum tarp arm can serve as an upper side arm or a cross tube on a Carolina Tarps aluminum dump truck or trailer tarp system. For cross tube application, the tube fits through the pocket on the end of your tarp and is used to pull the tarp out over your load. As an upper side arm, it will slide down into the aluminum lower arm and be fastened into place with set screws. A 90 degree corner castings connect the upper side arms to the cross tube, forming the upper tarp bow set.
The outside dimensions of the elliptical profile measure 2 1/8" x 1 3/8", with a wall thickness of 5/64".
Not compatible with every tarp system brand. If you have any doubts about compatibility, just give us a call and we will help identify your current tarp system and make sure you get the right fit.
This cross tube is 95" long and only provides about 100" of clearance when installed. If your dump bed is 96" or wider, we recommend that you order the 103" cross tube to make sure your arms don't bind on the sides of your dump bed.
