Retrax EQ Electric Retractable Tonneau Cover with T-Slot Rails for 2021-2026 Ford F-150 / F-150 Lightning (5'7" Bed)

The Retrax EQ is an electric retractable tonneau cover built from heavy-duty aluminum, with Trax Rail T-slot channels in its side rails and an LED bed light in the driver's side rail. It rolls open and shut on a Dual Helical Cable Drive System, answering to your truck's factory key fob, the Retrax phone app over Bluetooth or an optional cab-mounted touchpad, then retracts into a compact canister at the bulkhead.

It suits owners who want powered bed access, a rack on top and a hard cover in one. Part number EQ0378 is the 5'7" bed application for the 2021-2026 Ford F-150 / F-150 Lightning.

Features

Opens From Your Key Fob
Press the factory key fob and the cover rolls open or shut. The Retrax phone app for iOS and Android does the same over Bluetooth, and a cab-mounted remote touchpad is sold as an option for owners who want a button inside the truck.

Cable Drive, Anti-Pinch Stop
A Dual Helical Cable Drive System moves the cover along glide tracks set in the rail channel, so it runs smoothly and quietly. Anti-pinch protection stops the cover if something is in the way, and a manual disconnect lets you move it by hand.

Heavy Aluminum, 500 lb Rating
The rolling cover assembly is heavy-duty aluminum, rated to hold 500 lb spread evenly across the closed cover. A UV-resistant matte black finish covers the slats and rails, and the cover carries weather stripping.

Lit Bed on Every Open
A high-output LED strip is built into the driver's side rail and comes in the box. It switches on by itself whenever the cover opens or closes, lighting the whole bed at night. A matching passenger-side light is available as an option for more output.

Compact Canister, Rack-Ready Rails
The cover rolls into a compact canister at the bulkhead, leaving more of your bed usable. The Trax Rail System is built into both side rails and accepts most T-slot racks, mounts, gear and accessories from major manufacturers such as Yakima, Thule and Rhino Rack.

Clamps On, No Drilling
Every EQ comes with hardware made for the truck it is ordered for. Installation is a clamp-on job with no cutting, drilling or modification. Vehicle-specific install sheets cover RamBox, deck rail and standard beds. It is assembled in North Dakota from globally sourced materials.

Warranty, Shipping & Returns

Warranty. Retrax backs the EQ with a five year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, running from the original purchase date for the first owner only and not transferring with the truck. Normal wear such as fading, water intrusion and any damage it causes, parts and accessories added after purchase and external events are excluded. Altering the cover, misuse, an accident, fitting accessories that touch or interfere with it, driving with unsecured cargo or failing to register the warranty with the manufacturer within thirty days of delivery will void coverage. Approved claims are repaired or replaced at the manufacturer's discretion once a return authorization number is issued, and shipping charges are yours.

Free shipping. This item ships free to the lower 48 states. Because it is an oversized item, it ships by freight or oversized parcel and typically arrives in 3 to 7 business days.

Inspect on delivery. Please inspect the packaging before signing. If you see any damage, note it on the delivery receipt and contact us right away, and we will make it right.

About Retrax

Retrax makes retractable hard covers for pickup beds, the kind that roll into a canister rather than folding up or lifting away. The Retrax EQ is assembled in North Dakota from globally sourced materials, with a heavy-duty aluminum rolling cover assembly and aluminum side rails under a UV-resistant matte black finish.

The EQ sits alongside the PowertraxPRO MX and the PowertraxPRO XR, the other powered covers in this family. Retrax showed the EQ as an all-new cover at the SEMA show in 2022. On the EQ, Bluetooth phone control, key fob operation and a rail-mounted LED light are all part of the design.

Retrax is known for its Trax Rail System, the T-slot channels built into the cover's side rails that take most T-slot racks and mounts from major manufacturers including Yakima, Thule and Rhino Rack. Warranty work runs through a customer service department that issues return authorization numbers before anything ships back.
