Vital All-Terrain 2 Pack Flat Coil Spring for Dump Truck Tarp System

Description

Product Overview

The Vital All-Terrain 2 Pack Flat Coil Spring is a heavy‑duty torsion spiral designed specifically for dump truck tarp systems. Each spring is manufactured from high‑strength steel wire that has been heat‑treated to achieve optimal resilience and fatigue resistance. The flat coil design provides a low‑profile footprint while delivering the necessary arm tension required to smoothly roll and unroll tarps, even under the weight of heavy loads. With package dimensions of 9 x 6 x 1 inches and a weight of just 2 pounds per pair, the springs are easy to handle and install without the need for specialized tools.

These springs replace the OEM part number 3011876, offering a direct fit for side‑mount tarp arm assemblies. The universal design ensures compatibility with a wide range of electric and mechanical tarp systems, making them a versatile solution for fleet operators, equipment rental companies, and independent contractors who need reliable tarp tension across multiple vehicle platforms. The product has earned a 4.7‑star rating from eight verified customers, reflecting its durability and performance in real‑world applications.

Usage

In everyday operation, the flat coil springs maintain consistent tension on the tarp arms, preventing sagging and uneven deployment that can lead to premature wear or damage to the tarp material. Whether the truck is transporting construction debris, landscaping material, or agricultural produce, the springs help ensure that the tarp opens and closes smoothly, protecting the cargo from weather exposure and spillage.

The springs are ideal for both electric and mechanical tarp actuation systems. For electric systems, the springs work in concert with motorized winches to reduce the load on the motor, extending its service life. In mechanical systems, the springs provide the necessary counter‑force to manual crank handles, allowing a single operator to manage large tarps with minimal effort. Their robust construction also makes them suitable for harsh environments, including exposure to dust, moisture, and temperature extremes commonly encountered in construction sites and outdoor logistics hubs.
