Today we'll be taking a look at the replacement Velcro strip for ACCESS Tonneau Covers.This is going to be the hook side only for that tonneau cover to get secured down to your truck rails. So, it installs on either side. There's enough to get this installed on your long bed trucks but then if you need to cut it down to fit your short bed, it can also do that.It has a stiff backing here so that we can get that attached and then it will . it's kind of curved right now, so you might need to let it sit out for a minute to get it to lay flat, but it's going to be compatible with the ACCESS Original, LORADO and Low Rider Tonneau Covers.Overall, it measures 17 ft long and 1 1/2 inch wide. So, you pop that out there, put my ruler over and you can see that's 1 1/2 inch wide, there.It's going to include the hook side of that Velcro strip plus four small self tapping screws. So, that will help to hold down each end of your two strips for either side of your truck.And, that's going to do it for a look at the replacement Velcro strip for ACCESS Tonneau Covers..
Easy installation works great
Received product in the mail,.and installed it in 30 minutes.
These velcro strips are heavy duty and hold my tonneau cover very well. My only gripe is wishing this stuff came with it's own self adhesive backing. Because I have a LUND tonneau cover, I do not have the channel that these strips just slide and lock into. Therefore, I used 3M outdoor rated double sided tape to secure these velcro strips to my truck bed.
Very easy installation. Took less than 10 minutes. Wasn’t 100% sure it was 1 1/2 inches wide as original velcro was hard to tell how deep the channels were. 1 1/2 inches is correct for an access cover bought in 2003
Piece of cake! Why didn’t I do this sooner!? Took about 10 minutes. I had to;
Remove two Phillips #1 self tapping screws from both rails, pull out old Velcro insert with a needle nose pliers, cut new piece in half, install new one via sliding it in the channeled rails, trim the front carefully to match rail with a utility knife, replaced self tapping screws in new spot on front, trimmed back and installed self tapping screws in new spot.
DONE! Closed my cover and could actually pull it snug and secure via the new parts! Nice.

Man, thats awesome, Mark! Youre making me feel motivated to bite the bullet and get some things checked off the to-do list myself! What project is next for you?
Fantastic product. I have been dreading this project thinking I was going to need to purchase a whole new cover kit. Then I came across this extremely easy and convenient fix. Thanks to etrailer.com for having just what I needed. This literally took me less than 10 minutes to complete. You will see in the photos that i used a sharpie to mark the holes for ease of finding them with the new material in place to avoid drilling additional holes etc.. I am thrilled with the results. My tonneau cover is back to new again.
On a scale of 1-5 for ease of use, 1-super easy, skill level, 1, anybody can do it.
Tools needed: drill with Phillips head, razor knife to cut the material and a pair of pliers to pull the old hook and loop out.
Product arrived quickly. Product was easy to install and is working well.
Fits perfect and works perfect
Worked great! Smooth install and lid is now firmly attached when closed.
Part number A30474 is actual Access 1 1/2 inch velcro strip part number. Used on rails for Access Literider. Removed set screws, pulled out old strip, lined up with new material as template cutting angles and drilling small hole. Slid new strip in rail and installed screws. Perfect.
Shipping took about 10 days but basic ground service was reasonably priced.
Perfect fit.
Received replacement Velcro within a few days of ordering. Very easy to replace. The new Velcro was a perfect fit. Even used same screws from factory fit. Thank you for a great product and one that’s easy to replace!!
After installing the new Velcro strips my cover is now tight like new. Thanks you Etrailer.

The velcro strips are holing the cover tight and working perfect. Quality item and highly recommended.
Quick and easy. Just like factory.
After trying snaps that only broke.Easy install. Velcro holds tighter than new. No more flapping tonneau cover.Took less than five minutes.!!
Cover works as it should again.
Installation was extremely easy. It took me maybe 15 minutes all together, between drilling out the old rivets, pulling the old velcro strips out and putting the new strips in. I could've put rivets back in to secure the strips in place but I got lazy and used the included screws instead.
Perfect fit.
The velcro strip fit perfectly and was exactly as described.
Replacement was pretty easy and now the cover holds tight.
I got the right thing first try. After checking several sights, with vague descriptions and extremely high postage charges, trailer
had just what I wanted. It arrived very quickly.
Was a little unsure of the size(width) I needed to order but I contacted etrailer.com via the website and they got back to me the next day. I have the original Access cover and a lot of the newer, low profile tops apparently don't use the 1 1/2" wide velcro. The A30474 part fits like a glove. Replacing it was easy, remove two small screws and old material slid right out. Used a sharp knife and cut the taper on the ends to match. New velcro slid right in the grooves. Took me <1 hr to install.
My only installation concern, temp was about 55..60 the day I did this. Haven't yet had a really warm day to see if it will expand a lot. If so, I may need to make an adjustment in the length or location of the screws
Otherwise, no concerns and the help from etrailer.com was great

A year later and the new velcro is working great. No problems and the help from the etrailer folks was spot on
Did exactly what I needed it to do and didn't have to replace the cover! I would suggest using a dab or two of dish soap to help it slide in easier
This appears to be the right size but I haven’t had time to install yet
Perfect! I did not even know I could purchase this. Perfect fight. Thanks for the great product. Love the new velcro strip
