WHAT GOES INTO A TRADE MAX?
DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING
Our engineers developed the Trademax rack to provide a simple and effective way to carry loads such as ladders. The Trade Max system is unique from all other cross-bar systems on the market in that it proves to be a level cross-bar system without packers and also allows for moving cross-bars where required. The Trade Max also enables the rear bar to be closer to the rear of the vehicle regardless of the mount position on the car’s roof.
COMPONENTS
A Trade Max crossbar kit includes high-grade aluminium crossbars, stainless steel hardware, and a durable, powder-coated finish. Its modular design allows for adjustable mounting brackets and various accessory mounts. Built for strength, versatility, and aerodynamics, it’s ideal for both outdoor adventures and professional use.
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 vehicle and a variety of fixing devices are used for the lugs. Most vehicles with factory fitted rails will have bolt in points so they are used.
If bolt in points are 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 water proofed using a commercial grade silicon sealant.
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 and then 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.
Nitty Gritty
The Trade Max Roof Rack is a heavy-duty solution designed specifically for tradespeople who need a reliable and robust system for transporting tools and equipment. Built from high-strength materials, this roof rack is engineered to handle heavy loads, providing maximum durability and stability during transit. Its solid construction makes it ideal for daily commercial use, withstanding the wear and tear of challenging job sites and long-distance travel.
What sets the Trade Max Roof Rack apart is its focus on functionality and versatility. The Trade Max has the unique ability to have bars in flexible positions, level, and with further overhang on the rear mount.
The rack is also designed with safety in mind. Reinforced brackets and secure tie-down points ensure that loads remain stable and safe during transportation, even on uneven roads or at higher speeds. The weather-resistant finish protects the Trade Max Roof Rack from rust and corrosion, ensuring it performs well in all conditions, whether in wet climates or dusty job sites. This makes it a long-lasting investment for any professional who relies on their vehicle to carry essential gear.
Another key feature is its aerodynamic profile, which helps reduce wind resistance and noise. This design enhances fuel efficiency, particularly for tradespeople who spend significant time on the road. The rack’s quieter, more streamlined performance makes it a practical choice for both urban and rural settings, allowing for smoother driving even with a full load.
