Dometic 8952013.400UL 9100 Awning Arm - Reduced Pitch - Black

Restore or replace a worn awning arm with the Dometic 9100 Power Awning Arm – Reduced Pitch (Part #8952013.400UL) in black. This single arm kit is the reduced-pitch version designed for Dometic 9100 Power Awnings, giving you the right geometry for installations where a steeper standard-pitch drop isn't ideal.

Reduced Pitch vs. Standard — Why It Matters

The difference between this arm and the standard-pitch version comes down to how steeply the awning angles down when extended. The reduced-pitch arm produces a more level deployment with a smaller drop than the standard arm — useful for taller RVs, certain mounting positions, or installations where a steeper pitch would put the awning too low for comfortable use of the patio area underneath.

If your existing awning has the steeper geometry and you want to keep that look, the standard-pitch 8952012.400UL is the matched replacement. If you're installing the reduced-pitch version (or your factory setup uses it), this is the correct arm.

The Workhorse of Your Awning System

Extension arms are a crucial part of any RV awning — they mount to your sidewall and extend outward to support the fabric roller tube assembly, providing the tension that keeps the fabric taut and stable when deployed. Without a properly functioning arm, your awning sags, flaps in the breeze, and can fail prematurely. This is a genuine Dometic OEM replacement built to keep your 9100 system working the way it was designed to.

Gas Strut Support & Adjustable Pitch

The arm includes a gas strut that creates and maintains tension on the awning when extended, helping it stay in place even in breezy conditions. The strut also helps distribute the weight of the awning fabric and reduces stress on the arms and your RV's sidewall — extending the life of the whole setup.

Within its reduced-pitch range, the arm also includes adjustable pitch so you can fine-tune the angle for sun protection or rainwater runoff. Loosen the knob, move the arm to your preferred angle, and retighten — simple and tool-free.

Replacing the Fabric Too?

If your awning fabric is also worn, faded, or torn, we carry matching Onyx Fade fabric replacements for the 9100 system in two underside options:

• 9100 Onyx Fade fabric replacement (black on both sides)
• 9100 Onyx Fade fabric replacement with polar white underside

Important Notes About Hardware Finish & Construction

Dometic uses two different painter suppliers, which means hardware finish may appear glossy, matte, or even a mix of both within the same hardware set. Dometic does not consider this variation a defect and does not offer exchanges or alternatives based on finish appearance.

The hardware back channel may have a slight bow due to the manufacturing process. This is not a defect — upon installation, the hardware will sit flat against the RV. The awning arm is intentionally engineered to be lightweight and to rely on the strength of your RV's sidewall for support.
