DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING
COMPONENTS
FRAME AND CROSSBARS
Manufactured using 6060-grade aluminium and extruded in Australia to custom profiles for frame components or crossbars.
The frame components are designed for maximum dynamic strength. In contrast, the crossbars are designed to withstand the direct downward pressures generated by the weight of items carried on the rack or by accessories fitted on the crossbars.
The frame bars are pre-punched with holes between 250 and 310 mm spacing for locating crossbars and fixing wind deflectors.
All bar components are powder coated in matt black.
WEDGE-LOCK CORNER UNITS
The corner units are moulded using a composite of nylon and glass-reinforcing mixed with other strengthening substances. Once cast the corner units are machined to remove surplus materials and mounting holes are drilled.
The Wedge-lock corner units have a flanged nut inserted into the outside of the bolt hole. The ends of the corner units are fitted into the frame rails and 8 mm stainless steel bolts are used to fix them in place, creating a strong joint.
MOUNTING LUGS
The mounting lugs are used to attach to mounting points built into the sub-structure of the vehicle roof. Once the fixing lugs are installed, the mounting rails are bolted to the lugs.
The lugs are designed for individual models of vehicles and a variety of fixing devices are used for the lugs. Most cars with factory-fitted rails will have bolt-in points so they are used.
If bolt-in points is not available, we will drill through to the sub-structure of the roof and use stainless steel rivets to fix the tabs. All holes are then waterproofed using a commercial-grade silicon sealant.
WEDGE-WING MOUNTING RAILS
The mounting rails are custom designed for each vehicle so that the weight of the platform and load is evenly spread over the vehicle roof.
The mounting rails are laser cut from 3 mm steel, zinc electro-plated, and powder coated with a matt black finish.
The mounting rails for all utes and wagons are a single piece, and for vans, each side is made up of two sections.
The mounting rails, lugs, and all required bolts are packed into cartons for shipping.
