That is for a Dometic awning. Redwood uses Carefree.

For those of you who have metal wrap Carefreeawnings. I have just repaced the little rubber "O" rings which hold the rubber return kicker for the metal wrap. The sun dry rotted all and they cracked and popped open. Resulting in the inability of the awing to completely stowe itself. I used ZIP ties and they seem to be working. The old "O" rings lasted just one year.

You don't happen to have a picture do you? I understand the nylon hook around the awning tube at either end that pulls in the cover, but I can't figure out where there is an "O" ring.
