ROOF LOCKING CABLE 2550 MM EDSCHA UL-II 40 38 065 010

Original locking and guide cable for Edscha Ultraline II sliding roof systems, 2550 mm length – Original OE Code: 40 38 065 010/ Krone 550015083/ Schwarzmueller 89 925

The EDSCHA UL-II (Code: 40 38 065 010) roof locking cable is a high structural strength safety component, developed specifically for the new generation of convertible roofs in the Edscha Ultraline II (UL-II) range. With a precise nominal length of 2550 mm, this OE (Original Equipment) cable performs the critical role of synchronization, tensioning, and geometric locking of the movable roof components in the fully closed position.

Manufactured in Germany by Edscha Trailer Systems (Edscha TS), the cable ensures the maintenance of perfect cross-member alignment during sliding, preventing mechanical play induced by vibrations while driving. Integrating this original cable guarantees a perfect seal of the top curtain against water infiltration, protecting the cargo space and minimizing premature wear of the entire sliding superstructure.

Technical specifications:

Extended compatibility (Systems and Manufacturers):

The original 2550 mm Edscha UL-II cable is designed for native, direct integration on a wide range of heavy-duty commercial superstructures, ensuring full 1:1 compatibility with:

• Edscha TS Ultraline platforms (2nd Generation): Perfect direct replacement for sliding roof systems in the UL-II range;

• SCHMITZ CARGOBULL semi-trailers: Technically calibrated for the roof profiles and convertible systems integrated on Schmitz curtainsider bodies;

• KRONE semi-trailers: Full compatibility with mobile roof systems used on Krone Profi Liner, Mega Liner, or Coil Liner fleets;

• KÖGEL semi-trailers: Exact adaptation for the guide rails and upper tensioning points specific to Kögel Cargo or Kögel Mega superstructures;

• Other top manufacturers: Ideal for equipping or refurbishing sliding roofs mounted on Schwarzmüller, Wielton, or Kässbohrer chassis that utilize Edscha roof technology.

Advantages of the Edscha UL-II 2550 mm locking cable:

• Original Equipment (OE): As an original Edscha part with code 40 38 065 010, the cable respects the length measurements, mounting points, and elasticity coefficient required by the UL-II system to the millimeter, eliminating the risk of sliding jams.

• Extreme tensile strength: The special steel core is designed to withstand high constant tensions and repeated mechanical shocks without stretching, ensuring long-term stable roof geometry.

• Self-lubricating polymerized coating: The outer protective layer minimizes the friction coefficient inside the guides and protects the cable from abrasive wear, moisture, freezing, wide temperature variations, and the corrosive action of road salt.

• Smooth sliding and effortless operation: The optimized length of 2550 mm ensures perfectly synchronized folding and unfolding of the roof curtain, allowing truck drivers to open or close the trailer quickly and effortlessly at logistics sites.

Usage areas and applications:

• Preventive maintenance and TIR repairs: Replacing roof cables that are broken, frayed, rusted, or stretched due to normal wear on curtain-side trailer fleets;

• Repairing mobile roof structures: Indispensable replacement component for bodybuilders, curtain repair workshops, and authorized heavy commercial vehicle service centers;

• Restoring roof tightness: Refurbishing sliding roof systems to prevent water ingress and damage to transported goods.

Target audience (Who this product is for):

• Fleet managers and administrators of international road freight transport companies;

• Mechanical workshops, service centers, and repair stations specializing in truck and semi-trailer superstructures;

• TIR service technicians and mechanics looking for original components for a lasting repair;

• Spare parts stores for heavy commercial vehicles and authorized distributors of curtain components.

Practical installation recommendations:

1. Professional installation: It is recommended to mount the cable in the original Edscha Ultraline II supports, clips, and guides, ensuring that the cable path is free of mechanical obstacles.

2. Periodic inspection: Visually inspect the condition of the polymerized coating. If you notice peeled areas or steel wires poking out of the braid, replace the part immediately to prevent the roof from completely jamming during unloading.

3. Maintenance: Keep the guide rails clean, free of dirt, leaves, or ice buildup, so as not to subject the cable to unnecessary overload.

Conclusion

The EDSCHA UL-II 2550 mm (40 38 065 010) roof locking cable represents the guarantee of safe and smooth operation of the sliding roof. Using this original polymerized steel part prevents structural deformation of the curtain, eliminates downtime at the ramp, and ensures fully sealed transport, regardless of weather conditions or the distance of the route.
