RV owners know the frustration of sagging sleeper sofa cushions after years of use. The kickboard - the hidden structural component that supports folded sofa beds - often cracks or warps from repeated weight stress. This Thomas Payne® replacement kickboard solves the problem with reinforced construction designed specifically for RV applications.
Features
- 68" width - Fits standard Lippert® jackknife sofa frames (Satula model)
- Heavy-duty composite core - 30% more rigid than standard particle board
- Pre-drilled mounting holes - Matches OEM hole patterns for easy installation
- Vinyl-wrapped edges - Prevents fabric snags during sofa folding
- Weight-bearing design - Supports up to 300 lbs distributed weight
- Made in USA - Manufactured to Thomas Payne® quality standards
Unlike generic replacement boards that require modification, this OEM kickboard installs in minutes using existing hardware. The composite core resists warping from humidity changes that plague RV interiors, while the smooth surface prevents upholstery damage.
Designed specifically for RVs, this component undergoes rigorous testing to withstand the unique stresses of mobile living. From temperature fluctuations to road vibrations, it maintains structural integrity where household furniture parts fail.
