TopSystem Set ProSafe Ford Custom 2 cross members

For tradespeople and service providers who want to use their Ford Transit Custom more efficiently, the van racking on the roof represents a crucial component for daily work processes. Optimizing the load capacity goes far beyond simply storing materials. It includes secure fastening, quick access, and protection of the vehicle's payload. In this context, the TopSystem from Sortimo gains importance, as it offers a modular solution that integrates seamlessly into the vehicle geometry. Particularly for users of the Ford Transit Custom from model year 2012, the TopSystem Set ProSafe Ford Custom 2 cross members provide a tailor-made answer to the requirements of modern tool storage vans. The combination of robust material, integrated load securing, and precise fit allows you to transform the van into a highly functional work vehicle that excels both in city traffic and on construction sites.

The construction of the roof rack is based on a thoughtful mix of materials that combines lightweight design and stability. The TopSystem Set ProSafe Ford Custom 2 cross members consists of two individual cross members with a length of 1550 millimeters. This dimension is chosen so that the roof surface of the vehicle is optimally utilized without excessively affecting aerodynamics. The main carrier consists of aluminum, which ensures a low own mass of a total of 5.61 kilograms. This low weight is crucial because it does not unnecessarily burden the maximum payload of the vehicle. For stabilization and fastening, components made of galvanically zinc-plated steel and stainless steel are used, which withstand corrosion and weather influences. The connecting elements and supports use EPDM plastic and PA6 (polyamide 6) to dampen vibrations and ensure scratch protection for the vehicle body and the load. This combination of materials ensures that the set retains its functionality and appearance over many years, even under harsh operating conditions.

In the technical design, the specific vehicle data plays a central role. The set is exclusively designed for the Ford Custom, specifically the Ford Transit Custom. It fits models with wheelbases of 2933 millimeters and 3300 millimeters. The roof shape is defined as a standard roof with the manufacturer designation H1. The set is designed for vehicles with front-wheel drive and takes into account all variants of the rear opening variable. The length of the cross members of 1550 millimeters is a critical factor for stability and the usable area. By precise adaptation to these specifications, it is ensured that the installation takes place without drilling into the vehicle structure and the roof load distribution is optimal. The load capacity of each individual cross member is up to 50 kilograms. In doing so, the respective maximum roof load of the specific vehicle must always be observed, which can be found in the vehicle documents. The system design allows these load limits to be safely utilized without compromising vehicle safety.

The area of application of this set extends to all professional sectors that rely on the transport of tools, materials, and equipment. Whether electricians, plumbers, carpenters, or facility managers – all benefit from the additional storage space on the vehicle roof. Typical applications are the transport of long profiles, pipes, or panels, which would block the space for other utensils in the interior of the vehicle. By upgrading the roof rack with ProSafe, you receive a holistic load securing system for your entire vehicle. ProSafe is the professional load securing system from Sortimo and can be used consistently at the original lashing points of the vehicle manufacturers as well as at the Sortimo van racking and at integrated lashing points in the vehicle floor. This means that the lashing straps can be used not only on the roof, but also in the interior and at the rear of the same system. This creates uniform handling and reduces the need to manage different securing systems.

The integration of the ProSafe system into the TopSystem cross members Ford Transit Custom offers decisive advantages in daily work. The ProSafe lashing rails are incorporated over the entire cross profile length. This makes it possible to wrap the lashing straps easily, quickly, and without further accessories over the entire surface. The tedious search for suitable rings or the need to search for separate fastening points is eliminated. The additional attachment of rubber inserts on the cross members not only prevents the load from slipping, but also protects it from damage due to friction or pressure points. This is particularly important for sensitive surfaces or painted parts. The combination of non-slip supports and the continuous integration of lashing points creates a secure environment for the load, which minimizes the risk of accidents on the road.

The classification into the Sortimo system opens up various combination options. The TopSystem Set ProSafe Ford Custom 2 cross members is not to be regarded as an isolated product, but as the core piece of a modular van racking. Through the TopSystem accessories, such as the load limiter, you expand your roof rack with practical helpers that make load securing on the roof even easier for you. In this way, you can combine the roof system with storage systems, rails, or brackets that are precisely tailored to your individual needs. The Sortimo roof rack often forms the base on which the cross members are placed. The system compatibility ensures that you can retrofit further elements later without having to replace the basic structure. This makes the Ford Custom roof system a future-proof investment that grows with the growth of your company. The possibility of networking tool storage in vans inside and outside creates a logistical advantage that results in less search time and more productivity.
