All external racks are manufactured from our own profiles of top grade 3mm corrosion resistant 6063 grade aluminium. It is tempered to T6 standard and artificially aged by heat treatment of up to 30 hours at a temperature of between 100 and 200 degrees centigrade. This hardens and increases the strength after solution heat treating quicker than natural ageing and to a greater level.
All our external products (with the exception of walkways, for safety reasons) come with the option to powder coat which uses a full polyester coating (British Standard 5750) to ensure full protection in all weathers. With more than 150 different colours carried in stock, an excellent colour match is ensured providing a professional and aesthetically pleasing appearance to your vehicles.
