Lippert Components, Inc. released its new SureShade PTX Power Shade to the boating and marine industry. The PTX is designed for boats between 18 feet and 26 feet long. The shade joins the automated and manual telescoping shade systems offered by SureShade.

The PTX Power Shade features stainless steel linear actuators and a universal design that can be installed on aftermarket hardtops or T-Top tubes, Lippert said. It can be integrated by boat builders at the factory during production.

The shade itself is powered by two 12-volt, 1.375-inch actuators using an included rocker switch. No programming is required to operate it. The embedded motors propel the shade to extend nearly 5 feet in less than 30 seconds, Lippert said.

“The PTX Power Shade is a great new option for boaters wanting an easy-to-install shade for an incredibly competitive price,” said Bill Michel, SureShade managing director. “This will legitimately extend the amount of boating time for a size class of boats where shade area has always truly been at a premium and ‘competing’ systems have been cumbersome.”

The PTX Power Shade is operated silently with an anti-racking design and auto shut-off feature. It comes in four fade-resistant canvas colors and an integrated canvas boot for easy storage. The PTX Power Shade is available in four widths to fit boats from 52.5 inches to 75 inches wide. The PTX Power Shade comes with marine-grade aluminum and stainless-steel finish options.
