Solar Panel Bracket

Solar Panel Bracket | Stainless Steel Mounting Solution for Rooftop Tents

The Solar Panel Bracket by The Bush Company is a robust mounting system purpose-built for secure solar integration on rooftop tents and overlanding setups. Precision-engineered from 2.5mm stainless steel and finished in a durable black powder coat, this bracket set delivers strength, corrosion resistance, and airflow optimisation in harsh Australian environments.

Purpose-Built Mounting for Rooftop Tent Integration

Designed to mount directly to The Bush Company rooftop tent rails, these brackets provide a stable, tailored platform for solar panels. Their laser-cut holes align with The Bush Company’s Ezi-Slot system, eliminating guesswork and ensuring a secure, vibration-resistant fit on compatible tents. This system supports up to 20 kg per bracket pair.

Thermal Management for Solar Efficiency

A key advantage of this bracket system is its built-in airflow gap. By elevating solar panels above the tent surface, the bracket reduces heat build-up and supports more efficient energy production—particularly critical in hot climates where surface temperatures can affect panel output. This airflow design helps maintain system performance on long expeditions and remote tours.

Durable Stainless Steel Construction

Manufactured from 2.5mm-thick stainless steel and finished with a satin black powder coat, these brackets are built to endure high winds, road vibration, salt spray, and red dust exposure. This corrosion-resistant construction ensures reliable long-term use for serious 4WD travellers and off-grid power users. Each bracket includes stainless steel hardware for installation and long-term resistance to environmental wear.

Compatibility with Bush Company Systems

This bracket set is engineered exclusively for use with The Bush Company rooftop tents and accessory rails. Installation involves mounting the brackets to tent rails and drilling rivet holes into the solar panel frame to complete the attachment. This ensures maximum alignment, minimal flex, and optimal performance for users invested in The Bush Company’s integrated gear ecosystem.

Off-Grid Power Support for Overlanding Setups

Whether you’re powering a fridge, battery management system, or campsite lighting, these brackets form a reliable foundation for fixed solar solutions in rugged locations. Their strength and airflow design make them ideal for travellers needing consistent off-grid power without compromising on tent access or roof cargo layout.

Damage In Transit

If you or the person responsible for receiving your order does not check that the item has arrived in good condition prior to accepting it, The Bush Company cannot be held responsible for any claim for damage in transit.

When your order shipment arrives, it is essential that you check it thoroughly for any signs of damage before signing to accept the shipment.  This means checking the exterior box and if there are any signs of damage externally then the box should be opened, and the product examined for any signs of damage to the product itself.  This needs to be done before you sign anything to say that the item has been received, the driver needs to wait until you are satisfied.  If you are not satisfied with the condition of the item, then you are entitled to refuse delivery and the courier will have to return the product to us.

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.
