The invention relates to a strut for a folding vehicle cover which bridges the roof width by being braced axially on load bearing connecting components on both sides of the vehicle by angled strut flanks, while a strut section driven by a spring loading arrangement is raisable in the strut plane relative to the braced ends of the strut flanks into a tensioned position in which the roof skin of the folding cover is stressed by the spring loading arrangement through the strut section, and while a further vertical displacement of the strut section is locked upon reaching a limit time position located above the tensioned position. To facilitate the operation of the strut, it is provided that the strut is integrated into the cover frame of the folding cover by its strut flanks being braced articulately against associated side wall frame parts, that the strut section is retained in the locked limit position during the course of the closing movement of the folding cover until a taut roof skin is obtained, and that in a final closing phase of the folding cover it is automatically lowerable out of its limit position counter to the spring loading arrangement into its tensioned position under the influence of longitudinal tensile forces in the roof skin.
