You get security and convenience, but you lose usable tub space to the canister. That becomes a problem the moment you need to carry something bulky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RetraxPro FRC-4000 is designed to solve that. It’s a manual retractable cover with a removable canister system, giving you full bed access when you need it. Instead of working around the cover, you can remove it and use the entire tub for oversized loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEZ-OFF Full Bed Access\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe key difference with the FRC-4000 is the patented EZ-OFF system.

The FRC-4000’s patented EZ-OFF system allows you to remove the entire canister from the tub using integrated lift handles, giving you completely unobstructed access to the full bed length for oversized loads. When removed, the canister stands on its own integrated feet for storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003c\/details\u003e\n \u003cdetails\u003e\n \u003csummary\u003eWhat is the TraxLatch handle, and does it lock?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe TraxLatch is a key-lockable handle system that secures the cover when closed. It provides a physical keyed lock, which the electric XR models do not have, giving an additional layer of security for your tub contents. The TraxLatch also allows you to hold the cover open at multiple positions along the rail, so you can park it where it suits your load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003c\/details\u003e\n \u003cdetails\u003e\n \u003csummary\u003eHow does manual operation compare to an electric retractable cover?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe FRC-4000 is operated by hand using the CoreTrax sealed stainless steel ball-bearing roller system, which is designed for smooth, maintenance-free operation without requiring lubrication. There is no motor or wiring involved, which simplifies installation and removes any electrical failure points. If you prefer wireless push-button operation, the PowertraxONE XR or PowertraxPRO XR electric models are the comparison. The FRC-4000 suits buyers who prefer a hands-on system with the added benefit of full tub access via the removable canister.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003c\/details\u003e\n \u003cdetails\u003e\n \u003csummary\u003eWhat water management features does the FRC-4000 include?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe FRC-4000 includes a built-in water management system with integrated drainage tubes designed to channel water away from the tub during normal use. This assists in keeping cargo dry in rain. No retractable cover is fully watertight under all conditions, so for sensitive gear, we recommend using waterproof bags or cases inside the tub as additional protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003c\/details\u003e\n \u003cdetails\u003e\n \u003csummary\u003eDoes the FRC-4000 include T-slot rails for mounting accessories?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eYes, the FRC-4000 includes T-slot rails compatible with T-slot rack accessories from leading brands. This allows you to mount crossbars, recovery gear, and other compatible accessories on top of the cover when it is closed. Accessories are sold separately and clamp compatibility varies by product, so contact us before purchasing and we can help check compatibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003c\/details\u003e\n \u003cdetails\u003e\n \u003csummary\u003eIs the double-walled aluminium construction more secure than polycarbonate?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eDouble-walled aluminium slats provide strong physical resistance and are generally considered more robust than polycarbonate for heavy commercial use. The key-lockable TraxLatch adds a physical security layer on top of the structural strength of the slats. For tradies carrying tools daily who want the combination of a keyed physical lock and robust aluminium construction, the FRC-4000 offers a higher level of deterrent than a polycarbonate cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003c\/details\u003e\n \u003cdetails\u003e\n \u003csummary\u003eHow long does installation take, and are there any compatibility restrictions I need to know about?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eInstallation is rated as simple with an approximate time of one hour. For the without-Rambox variant: it is not compatible with the multifunction tailgate or the RAM TRX bed bar, and installation requires removal of the TRX bed bar if fitted. For the Rambox variant: silver cargo rails are required and it is not compatible with black track system rails. Both variants suit the RAM 1500 DT 5’7″ bed (68.4″) from 2019 onwards. Follow the Retrax installation guide carefully for your specific variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003c\/details\u003e\n \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Retrax","offers":[{"title":"With Rambox","offer_id":48219241513185,"sku":"R-T-80244","price":4595.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Without Rambox","offer_id":48219241545953,"sku":"R-T-80243","price":4595.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1926\/8595\/files\/retraxpro-ez-frc-4000-manual-retractable-tonneau-cover-ram-1500-dt-57-bed-2019-269.webp?v=1776418450","url":"https:\/\/www.4x4downunder.com.au\/products\/retrax-pro-ez-off-frc-4000-manual-retractable-tonneau-cover-for-ram-1500-dt-57-bed-2019","provider":"4x4 Down Under","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
