As Australia's leading innovator in RV accessories, Aussie Traveller is proud to introduce the revolutionary Anti-Flap Kit Pro+ (AFKPRO+), our most advanced awning protection system yet. Building on the success of our original Anti-Flap Kit, we've engineered a solution that combines versatility, ease of use, and superior protection for your RV awning.
What Sets the AFKPRO+ Apart?
The AFKPRO+ represents a significant leap forward from our standard Anti-Flap Kit. We've achieved a remarkable 20% reduction in weight while maintaining the robust protection you expect from Aussie Traveller products. This lightweight design makes installation and storage easier than ever without compromising on durability.
One of the most significant improvements is our universal sizing approach. The AFKPRO+ comes in one versatile size that suits awning projections from 2100mm to 2500mm, eliminating the guesswork from purchasing. Available in both black and white, this kit will complement your awning perfectly while providing maximum stability in windy conditions.
Revolutionary Features
The heart of the AFKPRO+ is our innovative triple sail track design. This smart engineering allows you to easily install walls, annexes, and fly awnings, making your outdoor setup more versatile than ever. The full-length clamp holds your awning fabric securely, preventing wind flap that can damage your investment.
Enhanced Compatibility
We've designed the AFKPRO+ to work with most RV awnings on the market. The kit includes eight different end attachments:
- Pre-installed standard hooks and spigots
- Universal wall fitting brackets
- Outrigger brackets for other awning types
- Spigot ends specifically designed for cassette awnings
- Annexe support brackets for additional functionality
- Paddle ends for secure fitting on other awning types
- 100mm extension pieces in matching colours
Installation Made Simple
Before setting up the AFKPRO+, you will need to install and prepare the mounting points on your awning. We provide a comprehensive guide on how to install the AFKPRO+, however we do recommend our Aussie Traveller fitment team or one of our approved Service Partners, to install the AFKPRO+ for you.
Setting up the AFKPRO+ onto a rollout awning is straightforward:
- With the awning now in the open position and prepared, it is now ready to be fitted with the AFKPRO+.
- Select the two sections with hook ends which fit to the wall brackets on the caravan, and two ends with spigots. These sections have the joiner piece fitted inside for transport and packing purposes. Remove the two set screws, slide the joiner piece out, reverse the direction and re-fix in place using the original set screws.
- Release the locking cam handles and ensure the top clamp section of the AFKPRO+ is in the open position. Slide the three sections of the AFKPRO+ together. Slightly tighten the locking knob so the pieces don’t slide apart.
- Fit the hook ends into the wall bracket fixed to the side of van. Ensuring the top clamp handles of the AFKPRO+ are in the open position, lift up the AFKPRO+ until the AFKPRO+ rests under the awning fabric.
- Extend the AFKPRO+ out until the round spigot end fits into the hole in the roller. Ensure the AFKPRO+ is fully extended and evenly spaced, then tighten the knurled knob. Repeat for side 2.
- Hold the fabric in position on top of the AFKPRO+ at the gap in between the sections with one hand and tighten the locking cam handles with the other hand. Ensure the fabric is fully secured at the gap between the three sections of the AFKPRO+. Repeat for side 2.
- The outside edges of the fabric should now be securely clamped with minimal deflection in the line of the fabric. The fabric should not be pulled down or lifted up at the points of entry and exit of the AFKPRO+ – the fabric creates a smooth even line along the AFKPRO+ at the RV wall and awning tube.
Storage and Transport
The AFKPRO+ breaks down into six manageable pieces, making it easy to store and transport. We recommend using our purpose-designed Anti-Flap Kit Storage Bag to keep all components together and protected when not in use.
