The rear cover of a pickup truck is the key point. How many common rear covers are there?

The rear Tonneau cover of a pickup truck is divided into high cover and flat cover in shape. The high cover is divided into half-high and full-high. Generally speaking, the half-high cover is mainly concentrated on the three-door rear cover, because the half-high cover requires multiple expansion functions. There are many types of full-high covers. This kind of rear cover, which is as high as the cab after installation, is mainly reflected in the loading capacity of the truck bed. The three-door and stamped high covers are representatives. At present, there are rear covers of different styles on the market. Many of them are upgraded based on these two types of rear covers, especially the upgrade of appearance.

Pickup flat cover, this product appeared very early. In the early days, it appeared as an imported part. At that time, domestic pickup trucks were mainly used for pulling goods, so the demand for high covers and cargo box treasures was high. With the progress of domestic off-road travel and the upgrade of domestic pickup trucks, pickup flat covers have gradually become the mainstream of modification, and the representative work is the rolling cover.

Of course, there are also three-fold covers and integral aluminum alloy hydraulic covers. However, compared with the rolling shutter cover, the expansion function of these two types of rear covers is not very strong, so at present, the rolling shutter cover still occupies the leading position of the rear cover of pickup trucks.

But whether it is a high cover or a flat cover, the problem of waterproofing needs to be solved, after all, water can penetrate everywhere. Sometimes the rear cover leaks because the contact between the rear cover and the side of the car is not tight, and sometimes the rear cover itself leaks, and this situation often occurs after a period of use, so doing homework before purchasing may avoid a lot of trouble.
