TopSystem Set ProSafe Ford Custom 23 3 cross members

The professional outfitting of commercial vehicles requires thoughtful planning that ensures both cargo security and efficiency in daily work. For craftsmen and service providers working with the Ford Transit Custom or the electric E-Transit Custom, the optimal use of the roof area represents a crucial component. The TopSystem Set ProSafe Ford Custom 23 3 cross members from Sortimo offers a robust solution here, specifically tailored to the conditions of these vehicle models. It combines the stability of a high-quality aluminium and steel system with the innovative load securing concept ProSafe. This roof rack is not a generic solution, but a customised element that significantly increases the load capacity of your van without endangering driving dynamics or safety. The focus is on seamless integration into the vehicle structure to achieve maximum stability with minimal weight.

The assembly and construction of the set are based on a high-quality combination of materials that promise durability and corrosion resistance. The three cross members have a length of 1550 millimetres, thereby optimally utilising the available roof width of the vehicle. The material of the cross members consists primarily of aluminium, which is known for its favourable ratio of strength to weight. In addition, steel components are used, which are galvanised to effectively prevent rust formation. For the highest demands on surface quality and resistance to weather influences, stainless steel parts are also used. The fasteners and supports contain EPDM plastic and PA6 (polyamide 6), which ensures a non-slip and protective support. This mixture of materials ensures that the system fulfils its function even under harsh conditions in outdoor use. The galvanised steel elements provide additional protection for the structural integrity of the roof rack, while the aluminium keeps the overall weight low.

When considering the technical data, the precise adaptation to the vehicle is of central importance. The set is designed for the Ford Transit Custom and the E-Transit Custom, both from the model year 2023 and newer. It covers both the standard roof variant, designated H1 by the manufacturer, as well as the crew van. Compatibility extends to vehicles with wheelbases of 3100 millimetres and 3500 millimetres. This is a crucial factor, as the roof length and the position of the brackets can vary depending on the wheelbase. The TopSystem Set ProSafe Ford Custom 23 3 cross members thus fits models with front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive, regardless of whether the vehicle is equipped with the electric drive train of the E-Transit or the conventional engine. Models with the Pro Power Onboard function, which enables external power supply, are also compatible, as the installation is carried out on the roof structure and does not impair the electrical systems. The total weight of the set is 8.55 kilograms, which can be considered a low weight and places minimal strain on the vehicle's payload.

The areas of application for this system are diverse and range from daily craftsman work to fleet outfitting. The three cross members create a stable platform on which bulky goods such as long profiles, pipes or construction panels can be transported. The integration of the ProSafe system into the cross profiles enables cargo to be secured directly on the cross members. ProSafe is a continuous load securing system that is incorporated into the entire length of the cross profiles. This allows lashing straps to be hooked in without additional brackets or drilling work. The additional attachment of rubber inserts made of EPDM not only prevents the cargo from slipping during the journey, but also protects the surface of the transported goods from damage caused by friction. This is particularly important for sensitive surfaces or painted parts. For the Ford E-Transit tool storage, the system is primarily designed for roof transport, but the freeing up of interior capacity through external load carriers also benefits the organisation inside the vehicle.

The advantages of this roof rack lie in its versatility and the high level of safety it offers. Here are the main positive features at a glance:

The classification in the Sortimo system shows that the TopSystem should not be viewed in isolation. It is part of a holistic concept for van racking. ProSafe is not only available in the roof rack, but also at the original lashing points of the vehicle manufacturers, at the Sortimo van racking in the interior and at integrated lashing points in the vehicle floor. By upgrading the roof rack with ProSafe, you receive a holistic load securing system for your entire vehicle. This means that you can use a strap system that fits everywhere and enables identical operating procedures. For the Sortimo accessories Ford Custom selection, there are numerous extensions, such as load stoppers, which further simplify handling on the roof. This combination of roof rack and interior organisation creates an efficient working environment in which tools and materials are within reach. The perfectly fitting roof rack for Ford Transit Custom 2023 crew van or standard roof ensures that no tolerances arise that could endanger stability.

To answer frequently asked user questions, the following section provides detailed information. Which cross members fit the Ford Transit Custom 2023? The TopSystem Set ProSafe Ford Custom 23 3 cross members is specifically designed for this vehicle type. It takes into account the specific geometries of the roof and the holding points at the wheelbases of 3100 and 3500 millimetres. It is important to consider the correct roof shape, here H1 standard roof, to ensure compatibility. Is the TopSystem ProSafe Set also suitable for the E-Transit Custom? Yes, the set is fully compatible with the E-Transit Custom. Since the installation is mechanical on the roof, there are no conflicts with the electric drive technology. Models with Pro Power Onboard, which offer high charging capacity, are not affected by the set. How much weight can the 3 cross members of the ProSafe set carry? The load capacity of the Sortimo TopSystem is up to 50 kilograms per cross member. With three cross members, there is theoretically a high total load capacity, but the maximum roof load of the respective vehicle manufacturer must always be observed, as this is often the limiting factor. The difference between cross members for crew van and standard version lies in the adaptation of the holding points and support feet to the respective roof length and shape. While the cross member set Ford Transit Custom is fundamentally similar, the installation must be precisely matched to the body variants to ensure safe fastening. What material is used for the Sortimo ProSafe cross members? As already described, the cross members consist of a mixture of aluminium for lightness, galvanised steel for the stability of the fasteners, stainless steel for corrosion-resistant parts, and EPDM and PA6 for the protective and non-slip supports.
