When operating roll-off trucks, one of the most common challenges drivers face is the risk of bending the tarping system arms, especially when loading containers and compactors or navigating uneven ground. Many tarping systems on the market claim to have “low profile arms” to address this issue, but the truth is, not all systems are created equal.
At O’Brian Tarping Systems, we take this issue seriously, and we’ve engineered solutions that stand up to the test. Our systems are specifically designed to minimize the risk of arm bending, even in the most challenging conditions. With O’Brian, you can trust that you’re getting the lowest profile arms on the market, providing superior durability and performance.
The Lowest Profile Arms in the Industry
O’Brian Tarping Systems
The Other Guys
O’Brian has set the standard with the lowest profile arms available. Unlike other systems, our tarping arms are less likely to be damaged when lowering a load on unlevel ground, loading, or turning around containers and compactors. This durability is especially critical in high-demand industries like waste management, where efficiency and reliability are key to maintaining operations.
Unmatched Pivot Point Engineering
What truly sets O’Brian apart from competitors is our industry-leading pivot points. On our Diablo Hoist Tarping System, we’ve designed a fully automatic system with a pivot point located below the top of the fender. No other system on the market offers this level of precision engineering. The rotary actuator is mounted in front of and below the top of the fender, ensuring optimal stability and performance when loading or unloading.
The “Diablo” model is the lightest system in its class, with an approximate installed weight of just 850 lbs. This light-weight design not only enhances fuel efficiency but also reduces wear and tear on the vehicle, making it the ideal choice for operators looking to extend the lifespan of their equipment.
Heavy-Duty Performance with the Magnum Model
For those in need of a more robust system, O’Brian also offers the Magnum-XD: Extreme Duty Tarp System, which boasts all the benefits of the low-profile design but with extra strength for heavy-duty applications. Even our heavy-duty arms set lower than leading competitors, offering a significant advantage when operating in tough environments.
