Adventure-Ready Roof Rack Accessories for Every Journey
When you’re loading up for a weekend away or tackling a long-haul trip, having the right roof rack accessories can make all the difference. These aren’t just add-ons, they’re the bits that make your whole setup work harder, pack smarter, and stay secure, no matter how rough the road ahead gets.

Choosing the right roof rack accessories depends on how you travel and what you carry. If you’re hauling jerry cans, water tanks, or recovery gear, sturdy brackets and tie-downs are non-negotiable. For touring setups, awning mounts, shovel holders, and light brackets can transform your rack into a complete camp-ready system.
Look for gear built from UV-stabilised, corrosion-resistant materials — things that can handle the Aussie sun, dust, and salt air. Many of our mounts and brackets use stainless or powder-coated steel for durability and peace of mind on corrugated tracks. Most items are universal, fitting major rack systems like Front Runner, Rhino-Rack, and Deltawing, but always check dimensions before you buy.
Whether you’re building a lightweight weekend setup or a full expedition rig, the goal is the same — safety, reliability, and the freedom to carry what you need without compromise. Every accessory here has been chosen for practicality, not gimmicks. Because when you’re 400 km from the nearest servo, you’ll be glad your gear was built right.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these roof rack accessories compatible with all roof racks?
Most are designed to fit major brands like Front Runner, Rhino-Rack, and Deltawing. Always check the product specs for exact fitment before purchase.
Can I install these accessories myself?
Yes. Most mounts and brackets can be fitted using basic tools, and installation guides are included where needed. No drilling required in most cases.
What materials are the accessories made from?
We stock a mix of stainless steel, powder-coated steel, and UV-stabilised plastics — all chosen for their resistance to rust, UV, and off-road vibration.
Do I need to re-torque or check fittings after installation?
Yes. Like any 4WD gear, it’s smart to check all bolts and clamps after the first drive and again after any rough terrain to ensure everything stays secure.
Can I use these mounts with a rooftop tent?
In most cases, yes — as long as your rack system has enough load capacity and clearance. Check the product details for specific compatibility notes.
What’s the weight limit for roof rack accessories?
This depends on your vehicle and rack system. Always refer to your vehicle’s roof load rating and keep total weight (rack + gear) within safe limits.
Are these accessories suitable for coastal or desert conditions?
Absolutely. Most components are corrosion-resistant and designed for harsh environments including coastal salt air, desert dust, and tropical humidity.
Do these accessories meet Australian safety standards?
While not all roof rack accessories require formal certification, our stocked brands are known for meeting or exceeding Australian quality expectations.
