Dometic 8500 model-matched FRTA fitment

848NS17.400B identifies the nominal 17-foot Dometic 8500 manual patio-awning fabric roller tube assembly (FRTA), with Sandstone Fade vinyl fabric and a Polar White vinyl weathershield. It is the fabric and roller assembly, not a complete awning kit: compatible manual arms, mounting hardware and brackets are separate.

For replacement, verify the original FRTA model, nominal width, fabric and weather-cover finish, and the existing coach hardware before ordering. Manual 8500 awning hardware must be selected by installation geometry and awning-rail-to-floorline measurement; powered 9100/9200 arm hardware is not assumed interchangeable.
