Revolver X2 Tonneau Cover | Roll-Up Hard Aluminum Bed Cover
We designed the Revolver X2 tonneau to give you the best of both worlds: the quick access of a roll-up cover and the durability of hard aluminum slats. Whether you're hauling gear for work or securing weekend camping equipment, the X2 rolls open and closed in seconds—no latches, no fighting with fabric.
Each slat is crafted from powder-coated aluminum that shrugs off rain, snow, and UV damage season after season. The patented spiral hinge runs the full length of the cover, distributing weight evenly and preventing sagging even when partially open. Installation takes about 20 minutes with basic hand tools, and the X2 clamps into your truck bed stake pockets—no drilling required.
Our rail system sits flush with your bed rails, preserving full bed width and leaving room for most fifth-wheel and gooseneck hitches. When you need the entire bed open, the cover rolls forward and locks upright against the cab, giving you complete rear access without removing a single component.
What makes the X2 different
Aluminum Slat Construction & Finish
Each Revolver X2 slat starts as aircraft-grade aluminum, then gets CNC-machined for precise fitment and powder-coated in matte black. The finish isn’t just cosmetic—it adds a protective barrier against road salt, industrial chemicals, and UV exposure that would degrade lesser materials over time.
The slats interlock via our spiral hinge, which runs continuously down both sides of the cover. This dual-hinge design distributes load evenly, so you won’t see the warping or hinge fatigue common in single-rail systems. We’ve tested the X2 under 300 pounds of static weight, and the slats hold firm without flexing.
How the Roll-Up Mechanism Works
Unlike soft roll-ups that bunch and flap, the Revolver X2 tonneau uses rigid slats that coil around a reinforced canister mounted at the cab end of your bed. When you unlock the tailgate latch and pull forward, the slats glide along the rail tracks and wind into the canister in one smooth motion.
The canister itself is made from heavy-duty polymer with steel reinforcement rings. It mounts to the side rails with stainless bolts, and the whole assembly locks upright against the cab when fully retracted. You’ll hear a reassuring click when it engages—there’s no need to strap it down or worry about it unrolling on the highway.
Installation & Bed Compatibility
We ship the X2 with everything you need: pre-assembled side rails, mounting clamps, a installation template, and a detailed manual with photos for every step. You’ll need a tape measure, a ratchet set, and about 20 minutes. No cutting, no drilling, no permanent modifications to your truck.
The side rails clamp directly into your bed’s factory stake pocket holes using over-center cam clamps. Once the rails are seated, you drop the canister into the front mounts, slide the cover into the rail channels, and secure the tailgate seal. The cover self-aligns as you tighten the clamps, so even first-time installers end up with a professional fit.

Common Questions About the Revolver X2
Yes, the X2 is compatible with most spray-in and drop-in bed liners. The side rails clamp into your factory stake pocket holes, which are accessible regardless of liner type. If you have an over-rail bed liner that covers the stake pockets, you'll need to trim small access holes for the clamps.
We include a drilling template for liner trimming, and the process takes about five minutes per side with a utility knife or hole saw. The clamps seal against the liner surface, so you won't compromise weather protection.
You can stop the X2 at any point during rollback and it will hold position. The spiral hinge system locks in place when you release tension, so you can open just the back third of the bed to grab gear without fully retracting the cover.
This is especially useful when you're parked in tight spaces or want to keep the front of the bed protected while accessing the rear. The cover won't creep open or closed on its own—it stays exactly where you leave it.
We rate the X2 for 300 pounds of evenly distributed static weight when fully closed and latched. That's enough to support most rooftop cargo bags, kayaks on crossbars, or someone kneeling on the cover during installation work.
Dynamic or concentrated loads—like standing in one spot or dropping heavy objects—aren't recommended and void the warranty. The slats are rigid, but they're designed for weather protection and security, not as a work platform.
No special tools needed. You'll use a tape measure to position the rails, a ratchet or socket wrench to tighten the clamps, and optionally a torque wrench if you want to match our specs exactly. Everything else comes pre-assembled in the box.
The installation manual includes step-by-step photos and a QR code linking to our video walkthrough. Most first-time installers finish in 20 to 30 minutes without assistance.
The X2 is highly water-resistant but not submersion-proof. EPDM rubber seals at the rails and tailgate keep out rain, car wash spray, and road splash under normal driving conditions. We've tested it in heavy downpours and pressurized car washes without leaks.
That said, if you submerge your truck bed or park in standing water above the rail height, some moisture may seep in. For most users, the X2 keeps the bed completely dry year-round.
Yes, but it's easier to just roll the cover forward and leave it installed. When fully retracted, the X2 locks upright against the cab and takes up only about 12 inches of bed length. You'll have access to the entire remaining bed without removing any hardware.
If you do want to fully remove the cover, the side rails detach in about five minutes by loosening the clamp bolts. The cover and rails are light enough for one person to lift out and store in a garage.
We back the X2 with a lifetime warranty on the aluminum slats, side rails, canister frame, and spiral hinge assembly. If any of these structural components fail due to defects or normal use, we replace them at no charge.
The powder-coat finish and rubber seals carry a 5-year warranty. Wear items like tension springs and latch components are warrantied for 3 years. The warranty doesn't cover damage from accidents, modifications, or misuse, but we offer replacement parts for all serviceable components.
