Durable Truck Bed Cover

Stronger than the Rest

Whether you’re a bigger fan of the Olympics or the Highland Games, the strength and physical endurance of the competitors is incredible. As you head home from your local Strongman Competition, are you surprised by the car that participants are driving? Is it a Mini Cooper, or perhaps a Chevrolet Spark? No, it’s a truck. Make sure you have a durable truck bed cover that compliments your truck’s durability – and your own.

Durable Truck Bed Cover

While most truck bed cover companies focus on the exterior, you know the importance of a strong structure. Luckily, the Renegade Cover is committed to both.

In addition to providing a well-fitting truck bed cover that keeps water out, the Renegade has the necessary structural support to meet your every need. Plus, rather than being disrupted by various latches, it has a smooth top that provides a steady surface to transport heavy items.

The greatest test of a truck bed cover’s physical endurance is how much weight it can carry safely, over a consistent period of time. While Diamondback has built quite the reputation in the industry, it falls short when put to the test. After all, Diamondback truck bed covers top out at 1,600 pounds.

While that might seem fine, wouldn’t it be better to go with the World’s Strongest Truck Bed Cover? With a load capacity of 2,000 lbs, Renegade is the answer you’ve been searching for.

Exceptional Truck Bed Cover Durability

Durability doesn’t just mean strong, it has to be smart. That’s why Renegade offers a durable truck bed cover that is easy to use, flexible, and adaptable. We aren’t just referring to the trifold design, but its ability to coordinate with a wide variety of accessories.

Also, the Renegade Cover is exceptionally secure. Rather than relying on a lock and key, get a cover that will be secure as soon as you close the tailgate. With 8 locking pins (which is twice as many as DiamondBack offers) no one is getting into a Renegade Cover.

It may be hard to believe that the Renegade Cover can be this durable, and yet so easy to install. But it’s true – no tools are needed! It also pairs well with whatever accessories you need to make the most of your latest challenge.

Flat Bed Tonneau Cover

Professional Grade Cover

Transforming your truck bed into a flat bed is a professional move, even if you’re a DIYer. But not just any truck bed cover will do the job. You need a flat bed tonneau cover that is easy to use and durable, but also has a high weight-bearing capacity.

Flat Bed Tonneau Cover

Whether you’re a contractor or just handy enough to get yourself in trouble, a flat bed tonneau cover will change the game. After all, you can keep your tools or other gear safe underneath the cover, while utilizing the top like a flat bed.

The Renegade Cover has a professional-grade top that’s designed to be used and abused by all kinds of building materials. That means you’ll be able to easily slide sheets of plywood and sheetrock across the smooth cover, rather than running into hinges, like on the DiamondBack.

Work Smarter, not Harder

In addition to providing a smooth runway for all your construction materials, the Renegade Cover has a a convenient trifold feature. When you don’t need it to function as a flat bed, it can fold up without blocking the view out your back window.

Taking it a step further, Renegade has created a tonneau cover that can transport heavy loads, in fact, it can carry heavier loads than any other truck bed cover on the market.

Ready for 2,000 pounds, the Renegade Cover will bear the weight of your new washer and dryer, or that pallet of flagstone Costco brings out every spring.

Another option is pairing your new cover with Headache/Stop Racks. That way, you’ll be sure your load stays where it belongs. No need to worry about losing anything on the way home!

Headache/Stop Racks

The Headache/Stop Racks are a perfect accessory for the Renegade cover. The bed cover can handle up to 2000 lbs of weight, the trick is keeping that payload from going through the truck back window or worse falling off of the cover while in transit. The Headache/Stop Racks solve this. These racks mount anywhere around the perimeter of the cover in the L-Track. Mounting points for attaching 2×6 coral. ¾” Aluminum dowel rod can also be used to connect the racks together. Screw luber to extend use of the headache stops. Mount on the Renegade covers L-Track system perimeter. Use as side rail stops, headache stops, or even tail stops. Keep your load on your cover with the Headache/Stop Racks.

Diamond Plated Truck Bed Cover

Diamond Plated Tactical Tonneau Cover

If a diamond is a girl’s best friend, is a diamond plate truck bed cover a man’s best friend? Let’s consider the benefits and tradeoffs of a diamond plated truck bed cover.

Post-Punk Power

Do you ever wonder why Talking Heads chose a diamond plate pattern for their 1979 album “Fear of Music”? Characterized by maximum velocity, this album has a steady beat that reflects the alternating bumpy and smooth cover.

As a design, the diamond plate feels tough. However, it’s important to note, there aren’t any actual diamonds in a diamond plated truck bed cover, just a diamond pattern. This might also be called a checker plate or tread plate, which is definitely less sexy.

A diamond plate pattern is generally intended to provide traction underfoot — which is why it’s found in industrial environments, particularly stairs and ramps. As useful as it can be for a nonskid or nonslip surface, it may also simply be a decorative touch.

Diamond Plated Truck Bed Cover

A diamond plate is typically manufactured in plastic or metal. In the case of a truck bed cover, let’s hope it’s aluminum. As David Byrne sings in “Life During Wartime,” “This ain’t no party / This ain’t no disco / This ain’t no fooling around / No time for dancing, or lovey dovey.”

When it comes to diamond plate truck bed covers, DiamondBack is definitely what comes to mind. With a rugged look, DiamondBack models include locks and hinges on top of the cover, and might even include cleats.

Unfortunately this exterior attached functionality keeps you from being able to utilize your cover as a flatbed. This might not seem like a big deal…until you want to smoothly slide an item onto your tonneau cover (like a sheet of plywood) or when you drop a pallet on it and it doesn’t sit flush on top. These are issues you won’t run into with your Renegade Cover’s smooth surface.

Also, before you invest in a DiamondBack, it’s important to consider their load-bearing capacity. You may be surprised to know that, while the HD Tonneau Cover can hold 1,600 pounds, DiamondBack’s other covers can only bear 400 distributed pounds.

Alternatives to DiamondBack

“Hold on, because it’s been taken care of” is another Talking Heads lyric, and it’s music to your ears when you’re exhausted by the search for the best truck bed cover.

Though DiamondBack is the industry standard for weight-bearing tonneau covers, it is not the leader. Rather, Renegade’s Tonneau Cover hauls up to 2,000 pounds on top! This not only removes any doubt you had about your cover’s strength, but opens the door to a variety of additional activities and uses.

Turning to DiamondBackSE, Diamondback270, and Diamondback180, for those truck owners ok with a low weight-bearing capacity, you’ll find a slight variation in access panels, but none provide full access to the entire truck bed. You only get this with Renegade’s tri-fold design.

Additionally, when you’re installing or removing your new cover, if it’s a Renegade, you won’t need any tools. Relatedly, don’t forget the DiamondBack design is higher profile than Renegade’s. It also has less locking pins, making it less secure than the Renegade Cover.

Join the Renegade Revolution

As Byrne sings, “High on a hillside, the trucks are loading / Everything’s ready to roll.” While we could go on and on about the differences between DiamondBack and Renegade, we’d rather leave you to plan your next great adventure. Order your Renegade Cover today! After all, “Memories can’t wait.”

Dirt Bike on Tonneau Cover

Whether you’re loyal to Yamaha or Suzuki, Beta or Honda, you need a reliable way to get your dirt bike from home to the gnar. Consider hauling your dirt bike on a tonneau cover for your truck. Don’t be a goon, make sure your tonneau cover is everything it needs to be for your bike.

Mudslinger

Is your truck bed cover clapped out? Or has your dirt bike been rolling around in your truck bed like some kind of bro? When it comes to upgrading your dirt bike set up, a heavy-duty tonneau cover is definitely a strong starting point.

After all, you’re not some kind of plastic princess. You’re ready to take on any race, any time. But your truck has to get you and your bike their first. Plus, as opposed to the Richie Rich who can pick up new gear constantly, you need a champion truck bed cover that’s ready to win a fight against wind, rain, dirt, and mud.

Protect your tried and true riding gear under an aluminum water-resistant tonneau cover. With a tri-fold design, easily access what you need without exposing the rest of the truck bed to the elements. Or add an overlanding set-up on top for a truly turn-key approach. With Renegade, you’ll have a cover made of Military-Grade aluminum, built to withstand any challenge.

Dirt Bike on Tonneau Cover

It’s time to get dialed in. Whether you’re ready for a motocross or supercross event, or wanting to take on a 24-hour race, a tonneau cover is the way to go. Plus, if you choose the right tonneau cover, you’ll have a few options for hauling your bike. If you want to dedicate space underneath the tonneau cover for your gear, you can secure your bike on top of the cover. Otherwise, you can fold your Renegade Cover up and have plenty of room to spare to secure your bike standing up in the bed.

Before you get too excited about putting your bike on top of your cover, be sure to consider how much your dirt bike weighs and if your tonneau cover is strong enough to bear it; many aren’t. For example, when it comes to trail dirt bikes, the Honda Trail 125 ABS weighs 259lbs, Yamaha TT-R230 weighs 251lbs, and Kawasaki KLX300R weighs 282lbs. But that gets dangerously close to the Paragon’s weight limit. Dual sport bikes tend toward 300lbs and enduro bikes, like the Husqvarna TE 300i, come in around 235lbs. An adventure bike takes things to another level; the Suzuki V-STROM 1050XT Adventure comes in at 545lbs.

Lucky for you, the Renegade Cover holds up to 2,000lbs, so load up a few bikes on top and you’ll still drive easy. Plus, be sure to consider the length of your bike and the size of your folding tonneau cover when it’s folded up. Many of Renegade’s competitors have much more bulky covers, keeping you from being able to close your tailgate.

Don’t bottom out or come in last. Get a truck bed cover to haul your dirt bike today. As you shop, think about a cover that’s going to make your life easy – that way you can spend more time carving the inside line than dreaming about it.

Now leave hauling your dirt bike to Renegade, and get back to practicing a No-Footed Can-Can or Nac Nac.

Hard Tonneau Cover

Though hard seltzers are being pulled from stores’ shelves in Utah, don’t fret. Hard tonneau covers are here to stay. No legislative bill can stand up to the strength, security, and style of the Renegade Cover.

Considering Alternatives

Perhaps you’re not ready to admit the truth. Maybe a soft tonneau cover will do! While vinyl, canvas, or another cloth material does provide a cheap option, it’s just that: cheap. These simply won’t be reliable products. But did you know the quality of hard tonneau covers vary too?

From a meta perspective, you’ve got plastic, fiberglass, and aluminum. However, the first two don’t merit much attention, as one-piece or single-panel truck bed covers lack serious functionality. Don’t even get us started on load-bearing strength!

In your search, you may find retractable or roll-up covers that feature aluminum. A low cost and solid product? Nope, it’s too good to be true. These covers have serious security flaws, plus they aren’t strong enough to carry any weight on top, limiting their usefulness.

Hard Tonneau Cover

So what now? Is it even possible to find this unicorn of a hard tonneau cover for your beloved truck?

Aluminum, folded, hard tonneau covers seem like the way to go, and this seems simple enough. But no two are the same. It’s important to ask the following:

1. What’s the functionality of the panels? Do they fold over onto the others, or do they simple open at an angle to grant access?

2. If they fold up, do they stay in place? Do they block the view out your back window?

3. How does it look? Is it a low-profile cover or bulky? Is it smooth on top, so you could slide something onto it, or are there brackets in the way?

4. What’s the weight-bearing capacity? Would it hold you if you needed to get up there? What about a snowmobile or overloading set-up?

5. Is it secure? How does the lock work? What number of locking pins are there?

6. What’s the installation process like? How can you be sure it will fit seamlessly on your truck?

7. How well does it work with accessories? Will drilling be necessary?

The questions go on and on. But, lucky for you, Renegade answers them all.

Renegade is a tri-fold hard tonneau cover, that fold up fully to a height of 6 inches, which doesn’t block your back window. It’s low profile, at 1.5″ high and doesn’t have any protruding pieces of hardware. The Renegade Cover can hold up to 2,000 lbs on top and locks securely without any keys. No drill installation and no drilling to add accessories into the integrated L-track.

The Renegade Difference

With Renegade though, you’ll have a cover made of Military-Grade aluminum, built to withstand any challenge – manmade or a force of nature. This trifold hard tonneau cover has a weight-bearing capacity of 2,000 lbs, making you ready for any load.

Heavy Duty Weight Bearing Truck Bed Cover

This low-profile cover folds up efficiently, without blocking your rear view or taking up space in your truck bed. It only measures 6″ in height when folded. Plus, it’s as smooth as can be, ready to slide a piece of plywood or hold whatever’s loaded on top evenly.

It’s also simple to install (or remove) without a drill, while still being the most secure hard tonneau cover on the market! Renegade offers key accessories, as well as the functionality to work with your favorite racks.

Got more questions? Bring them on. But, spoiler alert, Renegade is the best hard tonneau cover out there. What are you waiting for?
