STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS
Custom
manufactured by Michel’s to fit your trucks
specific width and length of grain body
End Caps / Hoods
The end caps/hoods are manufactured
from .081 aluminum so they are light and rust proof. The rear
end cap/hood is removable so farmers can detach it easily to haul
water tanks or do other farm chores and is designed to allow easy
clean out of box by allowing the tailgate to swing completely open.
A 1½ “ wind deflector on front end cap/hood prevents wind from
getting under the tarp fabric.
The cross members/hoops are made of
1" galvanized pipe bent to shape. The galvanization prevents
rust and the bow shape allows bigger loads. Hoops are removable to
accommodate water tanks, bales etc.
Standard Tarp Stops or Flip Release Tarp
Stops
Optional
Quick Release tarp stops are available in 3” or 6” offset to allow
for easy tarp removal. Pulling a pin on each unit releases the
tube that holds the tarp to the side of the grain body.
Tension Control &
Locking System
Tension Control is hidden from the elements inside the roll tube
consisting of a non-stretch rope attached to a spring to endure the
harsh winter climates.
The locking system
consists of a splined universal joint for quick and easy tension
adjustment.
Tarp
Fabric
The tarp fabric is a
19 oz. polyester scrim, coated with Canadian made P.V.C. The edges are
doubled over creating reinforced edges. The tarp
material has heat welded seams to prevent leakage and a centre stiffener rod sewn
into the tarp for added support. The extra wide fabric allows for
heaping the load.
