BAKFlip FiberMax Hard Folding Tonneau Cover for 1988-2014 Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra (6'6" Bed)

Old GM full-size trucks are usually the ones parked outside all year, and sun is what kills a cover on them long before anything else does. That is the argument for the FiberMax on a 1988-2014 Silverado or Sierra with the 6'6" bed: fiberglass-reinforced polymer top panels that are specifically UV resistant, so the textured gloss-black finish holds its colour instead of chalking out after two summers. On a truck this age the install matters too, and nothing here is drilled: the rails clamp to the bed rail cap and lift straight back off. Rigid FRP also turns away the casual break-in attempt that a vinyl cover invites on a work truck.

What's Included:

• BAKFlip FiberMax hard folding tonneau cover, pre-assembled
• Two clamp-on mounting rails
• Clamp set and hardware kit
• Nylon buckle straps and integrated prop rods
• BAKFlip hard-folding install guide

Features

Fiberglass-Reinforced Polymer Panels
The FiberMax leads with its panels. Fiberglass-reinforced polymer tops handle impact, abrasion, and temperature swings better than vinyl or a plain aluminum skin, and they sit on an aluminum substructure that spreads the load. Closed, the cover carries 300 lb evenly distributed, which is enough for boards, plywood, or a flat load laid across the bed.

UV Resistant, So the Finish Stays Put
The outer panels are highly UV resistant. That matters if your truck lives outside: the textured gloss-black finish holds its color and depth through years of sun instead of chalking and fading the way an untreated surface does.

Cut and Puncture Resistant Where a Soft Cover Is Not
A knife goes through a soft tonneau in a second. The FiberMax panels are rigid FRP, so they resist cutting and puncturing and turn away most casual break-in attempts. Latch the cover down over a closed tailgate and what is in the bed stays out of sight and out of reach.

Sealed Rails and an Internal Water Channel
EPDM rubber outer rail seals and rounded hinges block most water right at the rail. What gets past runs into an internal channel built into the rails, down the tracks, and out the drain hoses. The FiberMax uses a conventional tailgate seal, so close the tailgate first and the cover second for the best water resistance.

Patented Rail With a Load-Bearing Flange
The rail is the part most covers skimp on. BAK's patented design carries the panels on a load-bearing flange that runs the length of the bed rather than at a handful of points, which is what makes the 300 lb evenly distributed rating honest and keeps the panels from flexing between supports.

Buckle Straps, Prop Rods, and No Drilling
Reach under the cover with the tailgate open, pull the release cables, and fold it forward. Nylon buckle straps hold the two-thirds-open position, and the integrated prop rods hold it folded against the cab for full bed access. Installation clamps on with the included hardware in under an hour, no drilling or trimming, and the cover is assembled in Missouri and backed for 3 years.
