The latest canopy rack from ARB boasts a low mounting profile, and lightweight design and sets a benchmark in strength and integration. Plus, BASE rack’s revolutionary dovetail mounting system will make loading and unloading your cargo a breeze while keeping it secure both on and off-road!
ARB’s BASE Rack is manufactured using fully welded extruded aluminium and has lateral cross beams with enough intergeated strength that a subframe is not necessary. The absence of a subframe means the rack can be mounted closer to the roof of the vehicle for a much lower profile, yet the high-quality aluminium BASE Rack still offers the strength of steel at a fraction of the weight.
One of the main standout features of the ARB BASE Rack is the dovetail accessory mounting system. The dovetail groove can be found on both sides of each lateral cross beam, as well as around the external perimeter beams. There’s a wide range of clamp mounts designed specifically to attach to the dovetail for easy fitment of various accessories.
During the design process, ARB’s team of engineers undertook extensive testing when it came to the concept of running the internal beams perpendicular to the vehicle. This has taken away concern of increased wind noise, as it was found that not only is the BASE rack extremely strong – it’s also quiet!
The wind noise testing revealed that the majority of cabin noise from roof racks comes from only the very front perimeter cross-section, and this was very easily overcome with a formed wind-deflector which mounts on the underside of the rack on wagons with blade mounts.
The result? A very relaxed and quiet roof rack experience!
