Top caps

A top cap sits between the head of your side pole and the canvas. It spreads the load over a wider area, so the fabric is not stretched across a hard edge at a single point. That is where tears start, usually only after a few set-ups.

This collection holds the top caps for side poles of Ø 51 mm, in chino beige, white and black. The white version is the mushroom model. If you work with a Ø 76 mm center pole, see center pole top caps. Every cap together, top and bottom, is in the pole caps collection.
