Rooftop Tent Load Bars

Rooftop Tent Load Bars | Heavy-Duty Ezi-Slot Mounting for Overlanding Gear

The Rooftop Tent Load Bars by The Bush Company are engineered for overlanders who demand robust, modular mounting solutions for rooftop tents and expedition equipment. Designed to integrate directly with Bush Company rooftop tents, these extruded aluminium load bars deliver exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and seamless compatibility with recovery gear, solar panels, and custom overlanding setups.

Purpose-Built Mounting for Rooftop Tents and Accessories

Manufactured from high-grade extruded aluminium and finished with a durable matte black powder coating, these load bars are built to perform in Australia's harshest conditions. Stainless steel end caps and M8 bolt compatibility ensure lasting resistance to corrosion, UV exposure, and salt spray—ideal for coastal touring and long-distance outback travel.

Their low-profile design helps reduce drag and wind noise, while the integrated Ezi-Slot channels allow for fast, secure installation of accessories without drilling or modification.

Optimised Fit and Load Capacity

Available in 1390mm and 1490mm lengths, the load bars are tailored to fit Bush Company rooftop tents including the AX27, DX27, TX27, and TX27 MAX models. Each set supports up to 100kg when mounted directly to the tent roof, offering a stable foundation for mounting solar panels, recovery tracks, awning brackets, and more.

Optional high foot mounts (sold separately) can elevate the bars to increase clearance for solar panels or low-profile storage boxes—maximising functionality while preserving roof space.

Ezi-Slot System for Seamless Integration

Unlike generic roof rack solutions, these load bars use The Bush Company’s proprietary Ezi-Slot system. This precision-engineered channel allows quick attachment and adjustment of compatible gear, eliminating the need for third-party brackets or tools. Whether you're outfitting your vehicle for weekend touring or long-haul expeditions, the Ezi-Slot platform ensures your setup is streamlined, secure, and customisable.

Built for Modular Overlanding Setups

These rooftop tent load bars are more than just mounting hardware—they are the backbone of a modular, adaptable overlanding rig. By offering a durable mounting surface that integrates directly with The Bush Company’s rooftop tents and accessories, the system reduces setup complexity and enhances your vehicle’s off-grid readiness.

From recovery gear and solar panels to tie-down loops and rooftop storage, every component can be secured with confidence, ensuring reliable performance in all terrain and weather conditions.

If you do not follow this procedure and it turns out that the item has been damaged in transit, then there is no way for The Bush Company to claim on the freight insurance to cover any damage.  If you sign anything and are not satisfied you must ensure that this is noted by the driver in writing and obtain a copy that is signed by the driver.
