Features to know about

Secure Gear in Any Weather: Locking Polycarbonate Construction

When you’re carrying tools or camping gear, you want to know it’s safe and dry. The RetraxONE XR uses high-quality polycarbonate (Lexan) reinforced with 5/8" thick aluminum I-beams spaced every 4-3/4" for serious strength and impact resistance. It’s built to handle temperatures from -50° to 200°F without swelling, cracking, or fading, and the matte black finish resists scratches and UV damage. Seals around the edges, a tailgate overlap, and drain tubes in the canister keep out rain, snow, and dust so your cargo stays protected wherever you go.

Full Bed Access in Seconds: Smooth Retractable Operation

Some covers make you wrestle with snaps or folds before you can use your bed. This one glides open and closed on sealed ball-bearing rollers, so it retracts in seconds with no binding or uneven pull. Just pop up the handle, slide it to the position you need, and lock it down anywhere along the rails. You can even leave it partially open to cover gear at the front while carrying longer items out back. The low-profile rails sit only 1" above the bed for a clean, streamlined look.

Rack-Ready Versatility: Built-In T-Slot Rails

If you haul bikes, kayaks, or a rooftop tent, the integrated Trax Rail System makes it easy to mount T-slot-compatible racks from brands like Yakima, Thule, or Rhino-Rack (sold separately). The tracks run along the side rails, so you can load gear above the bed without interfering with how the cover opens or closes. It’s a great setup for anyone who needs both secure storage and hauling space for larger equipment.

Lasting Performance: Space-Saving Canister and Drain System

The RetraxONE XR rolls into a compact canister with an angled bottom that leaves room underneath for extra cargo. Inside, a spiral track keeps the cover from rubbing against itself, cutting down on wear over years of use. Two drain tubes route water out through the bed’s factory holes, so the canister stays dry and clean. This design keeps the mechanism smooth and reliable through heavy rain, snow, and car washes.

Simple, Clamp-On Install: No Drilling Required

Getting it mounted is straightforward. The cover arrives pre-assembled in its canister, so you just attach the side rails, lift it into place, and tighten the bolt-on clamps—no drilling into the bed. Once set up, the low-profile frame and flush-mounted handle give the truck a finished, factory look while delivering dependable, weather-tight performance for the long haul.

Looks good and feels sturdy

Awesome product as it was easy to insta ll!



by:

Still works great. Been outside in the elements for a year. Looks and functions great.



by:

The install is complete. I'd prefer a hard copy of the directions. The little point and shoot QR code took me to the wrong cover. After a little work I did find the correct one. This added a good 30 minutes to the install time. Little trouble with the adjustment. I might have to adjust a little more in the days to come. I'm conservative with the 4 star rating. Time will tell, could move to 5. The MAJOR concern...the delivery company delivered it to the wrong address. Thankfully I have honest neighbors otherwise someone would have been out $[XX].

I'd have a conversation with the delivery company if I were y'all.



by:

Product very good. Drain plugs could fit better keeps popping out



by:

perfect fit. solid build. Fast shipping



by:

Installation went well. Quality workman ship.



by:

E trailer is great. But when the cover arrived and I installed it the cover had a hole in it or a small flaw



by:

I have seen this product on other trucks and liked it. It was fairly easy to install(some good videos on[line]) my son helped me, two people make it go faster and easier. Thanks for the good service and price.



by:

Looks very sharp and fits well on my 2022 Silverado 1500 5'8" bed, and the fits well with Rihno Rack heavy duty crossbars 65" long.



by:

Shipping was fast. Everything arrived in tact.
The instructions for the cover were fairly easy to follow and it fit our 2023 Canyon Denali with a spray in bedliner perfectly.



by:

Works good overall. Opens, closes and locks very well. I get some water coming in on the sides , driving in the rain. Not pleased with the connections on the drain tubes. I have had to glue them in more than once, even during initial install. I did not like the fact that I had to drill those 1/2" holes in the bed for them as well.



by:

The product quality is very good, and I anticipate many years of useful service. Regrettably, the assembly directions are somewhat superficial. Identifying hardware (i.e.: screw size, color, etc.) is particularly challenging as there is not an actual size comparison chart. Properly aligning the product was also very difficult, multiple attempts were required.



by:

Fantastic cover. Perfect for my needs. Performs better than I imagined it would. Ability to access bed instantly with supplies... Yakima rack on/off in literally less than two minutes. Drive a black limited Tacoma. Perfect match for this truck. From sleek to bound for the trails in no time.



by:

Very good quality tonneau cover and it just glides when opening and closing. Installation was super easy too.



by:

Pretty decent cover and installation was reasonable. I’m still not sure how water resistant it will be but we will see. It is replacing a folding cover and thus far it is easier to use. I’ll have to see if it is worth the space trade off but I didn’t like the rear window being blocked when the folding cover was open.



by:

Excellent shipping. No damage. Installation instructions were easy to follow. No complex tools needed. Lightweight product. Easy lifting and maneuvering into position.



by:

etrailer had excellent communication and the cover came in sooner than expected. The Retrax cover was flawless and had excellent instructions for easy installation!



by:

Piece of junk. It ripples in the wind like a tarp over the back of the pickup. The canister does not roll up without having to be forced it in, mostly due to the ripples from driving down the highway. 2 stars because it could work well, the parts and design, if the actual cover were designed for the use it is intended for.



by:

Everybody at etrailer have always provided excellent customer service. Thank You,



by:

So far I have about 10000 miles on this set up and the Retrax cover has been great, love being able to keep prying eyes off my gear and water infiltration has been minimal. This is the plastic version and seems to be holding up fine to the elements thus far…time will tell, there is a slight loss of cargo space with this unit installed but it hasn’t been an issue for me. I am very happy overall to this point.



by:

I spent more time getting the cover aligned than assembling and getting it onto the truck bed rails. The instructions are very good. I had to adjust the top jaws of the all the rail clamps since I have the T-slot XR rail system. I used a thin piece of cardstock to check for unwanted clearance between the jaw and truck bed flange. Since I didn't have a very large drill bit, I used a Dremel sanding bit to enlarge the pilot hole that I drilled through the plastic bed plug for the drain tube. That worked fine. The cover looks great and seems to operate well on this first day of installation and use. The T-slot rails do not get in the way of using the hand-holes for the rear step bumper.



by:

The install was very easy but definitely a two man operation. The section that holds the rolled up cover is pretty large so you do lose some space. That section is also is fairly thin walled. I have dented and scratched it pretty good but it doesn't affect its function. I put one of those cargo load bars across the bed in front of it to try and stop that. I did have it "rack" a little after some rough drives which can cause it to bind a bit when rolling up. But it always closed on the second or third try. And its easy to straighten up again if needed. No water has gotten in the bed and it sure makes grocery getting a whole lot easier. I think its great.



by:

Great accessory for our F-150. Installation isn't too bad if you just take it slow and double-check everything as you go. Looks are top-notch, and the functionality has been excellent. Gives us an extra sense of security being able to lock the cover when needed. You lose a small amount of bed space, but so far it hasn't caused any problems for us. Did I mention it looks great?

  • Which Tonneau Cover Allows Access To Stake Pockets On 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 6-1/2 Bed?
    We have a cover that will allow access to the stake pockets on your 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 6-1/2' bed, but the RetraxONE XR Hard Tonneau Cover # RTX57YR does not allow this. I recommend looking into the Extang Xceed Hard Tonneau Cover - Folding # EX85457 which is a folding cover that allows full access to the stake pockets. Most retractable covers need to be mounted over the bed rails which is why it would block the stake pockets, but this folding cover mounts inside the bed rails so...

  • Tonneau Cover And Ladder Rack Combo Options For A 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 6-1/2' Bed
    Because the Rapid Switch Systems Pro HD Truck Bed Ladder Rack # RS88FR uses clamps to mount to the inner lip of the bedrails you won't be able to use it along with a tonneau cover since they would both be competing for the same space. You would need to use a rack that mounts in the stake pockets like the Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH43002XT-781 or Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack # A4003497 along with an inside-the-bedrails style tonneau cover like...

    For a tonneau cover that is compatible with the Yakima OverHaul HD Ladder Rack item # Y01151-58, I recommend the RetraxONE XR Hard Tonneau Cover item # RTX57YR. This cover is confirmed to fit your 2019 Silverado 1500's 6-1/2" bed. I really like this cover because it uses polycarbonate slats that are made in the USA. This makes the cover extremely durable and prevents it from fading in the sun light. The RetraxONE XR Hard Tonneau Cover item # RTX57YR includes T-Slot rails that will allow...
