A tarp deploying apparatus for use on a trailer includes a fiberglass tarp roller. The fiberglass tarp roller is constructed from two fiberglass tubes. A splined joint is used to join the two tubes together. Each end of the tarp roller also includes a female socket with grooves to engage splines on a motor shaft that drives the tarp roller or to connect the roller tube to a universal joint. A pin or bolt may also be used at the splined joint to securely hold the tarp roller together without the need for a welding operation.
