Shur-Co has introduced its new and enhanced rear lock for the ShurTite Retractable Tarping System.
The new rear lock, crafted from high-quality materials, brings added durability to Shur- Co’s retractable tarping system. This new low-profile compact lock that flips out of the way and travels with the rear bow is now standard, replacing ShurTite’s previous steel Aframe bracing structure, which remained stationary.
By removing the A-frame structures and replacing them with the new low-profile locks, the ShurTite system offers increased rear deck space, allowing customers to load from front to rear with greater ease, according to Sur-Co. Operators no longer need to manually remove heavy bracing for loading and unloading, saving time and reducing physical strain. The reduced weight—by up to 80 pounds—enhances operator safety, minimizing potential workers’ compensation concerns for all users.
“We’re thrilled with the improved rear lock, which offers the best loading clearance in the market among retractable tarping systems,” said Jeff Boyd, Vice President of Flatbed Sales. “Without the need to remove heavy braces, it’s faster to operate and optimizes rear trailer loading space.”
