Load ratings and the vehicle's roof limit
Every Wedgetail product is 100% off-road rated to its full rating. There is no separate, lower off-road figure. Static rating = 3.5 x the dynamic rating (100 kg dynamic = 350 kg static; 150 kg dynamic = 525 kg static). A solution with no published rating is shown as "No published rating".
How Wedgetail fits the Volkswagen Amarok
Fit methods across the Volkswagen Amarok solutions: rail utilising OEM fixtures (5), bolts to OE mount (2), bolted to OE holes (1), rivets (1), rails on OE tracks (1) and drilled rail mount (1). Each solution's fit method is listed in its generation table. The main frame sections are welded; the other parts bolt or click together, so the rack ships flat-pack.

Volkswagen Amarok roof rack questions
Which Wedgetail fits my model year and generation?
Wedgetail lists solutions for the Volkswagen Amarok (2023 to current) and the Volkswagen Amarok (2011 to 2023). Pick your generation on this page, then your cab or body type; each section links to the matching shop page.
What sizes suit single, extra and dual cab?
Platform sizes (width x length) listed for the Volkswagen Amarok: Dual Cab: 1400 x 2600 mm, 1300 x 2800 mm, 1300 x 2700 mm, 1300 x 2850 mm, 1300 x 2900 mm, 1300 x 1400 mm, 1550 x 1400 mm, 1350 x 1400 mm, 1250 x 1400 mm. The size for each solution is in the tables above.
Can it mount to a canopy instead of the cab?
Yes. Wedgetail lists 5 canopy or service body solutions for the Volkswagen Amarok: Caddy Storage service body, Ascent canopy and ARB canopy. A canopy or service body not on this list is not fitted.
What does it bolt to?
It depends on the solution. Fit methods listed for the Volkswagen Amarok: bolts to OE mount (2), bolted to OE holes (1), rail utilising OEM fixtures (5), rivets (1), rails on OE tracks (1) and drilled rail mount (1). The fit method for each solution is in the tables above.
Will it carry a rooftop tent?
Check the tent weight against the dynamic rating and the tent plus occupants against the static rating. Platforms for the Volkswagen Amarok are rated 100 or 150 kg dynamic, which is 350 or 525 kg static, and the rating holds 100% off-road. Stay within the vehicle's own roof limit too: 85 kg dynamic, 350 kg static (2023+).
Is the rating reduced off-road?
No. Every Wedgetail product is 100% off-road rated to its full rating. There is no separate, lower off-road figure.
Do third-party accessories fit?
Yes. The lip around the platform is there for strength. Some third-party accessories are harder to fit; a 10 mm spacer overcomes it, and with that they fit.
What warranty applies?
Warranty is per solution: Commercial Max 1 year, Oval Steel 5 years (3 years on 1 solution), Trade Max 5 years and Wedgetail Adventure 10 years.
Where can I get it fitted?
134 stockists across Australia sell and fit Wedgetail; see where to buy. You can also buy direct from the factory in Bayswater VIC and have it shipped.
