Frequently Asked Questions
Does this fabric come with the awning hardware or roller tube?
No, this is fabric only. You'll reuse your existing awning roller tube, arms, and mounting hardware. The fabric slides onto your current roller tube assembly.
How do I know if I have a Dometic 8500 series awning?
Check the end caps or arms of your awning for model identification. The 8500 series typically has the model number stamped on the roller tube end caps. You can also measure your awning - this fabric fits 16-foot rail-to-rail measurements.
Can I install this fabric myself or do I need professional help?
Many RV owners successfully replace awning fabric themselves with basic tools and a helper. The process involves removing the old fabric from the roller tube and sliding on the new fabric. However, if you're not comfortable working with spring-loaded awning mechanisms, professional installation is recommended for safety.
Will this Black Onyx fabric fade over time?
This genuine Dometic fabric features UV-resistant coating designed to minimize fading. While all awning fabrics will show some wear over years of sun exposure, the Black Onyx color is particularly fade-resistant compared to lighter colors and maintains its appearance longer than aftermarket alternatives.
