Sturdy construction & long service life
This sturdy load carrier is characterized by its high-quality workmanship and the resulting long service life. The anodized aluminum provides reliable protection against corrosion and ensures that the roof rack still looks good and remains functional even after many years of outdoor use.
On request, the roof rack can be supplied with an open side railing. This design makes it easier to secure loads and offers additional options for attaching straps or accessories. Please note that in this case, the delivery time is extended to approx. 3 weeks.
Reflective end caps are located at the rear end of the roof rack, which improve the visibility of the vehicle in the dark and thus contribute to greater safety on the road.
Features, accessories & load capacity
A practical range of optional accessories is available for this roof rack:
-
Loading roller (rear roller): makes it easier to load ladders and long items via the rear of the vehicle, while protecting the roof edge and material.
-
Pair of ladder holders: for securely fastening ladders to the roof rack – ideal for trades, assembly, and service vehicles.
-
Walking plate: forms a walkable platform on the roof rack and makes it easier to load and secure the load.
A spoiler is integrated at the front as standard, which improves aerodynamics, reduces wind noise, and can have a positive effect on fuel consumption.
The maximum load capacity is 150 kg and is based on the manufacturer's specifications for the respective vehicle. This limit should not be exceeded for safety and vehicle registration reasons.
Eight brackets are used for the short wheelbase (L1) and ten brackets for the long wheelbase (L2). This ensures that the load is optimally distributed across the vehicle roof and guarantees secure mounting.
