WHAT GOES INTO A WEDGETAIL CORE RACK?

DESIGN AND ENGINEERING

Wedgetail Core was developed to offer a more accessible way to experience the Wedgetail brand. Designed primarily for recreational and everyday use, Core applies the same underlying engineering principles used across the Wedgetail range, with testing focused on ensuring reliable strength and stability under typical load conditions.

MATERIAL AND FINISH

The platform and side rails are manufactured from high-grade aluminium and assembled using durable stainless steel hardware. All components are finished in a Matte Black Textura powder coat, providing protection against wear and environmental exposure while maintaining a clean, practical appearance.

Platform layout

Wedgetail Core features a straightforward platform and side-rail layout designed to support common recreational loads and accessories. The structure provides consistent load support and compatibility with practical setups, making it well suited to everyday driving and weekend use.

Mounting System

Supplied as a complete platform-and-mount assembly, Wedgetail Core uses a simplified mounting system designed for reliable weight distribution and straightforward installation. This integrated approach supports stable fitment while keeping the overall system focused on practicality and value.

Packaging and freight

Freight costs and potential damage during shipping are major concerns for customers with larger vans. Since most roof racks designed for larger vehicles exceed three meters in length, we needed a practical shipping solution. To address this, our engineers developed a method for disassembling the rack into a more compact package. Not only does this significantly reduce freight costs, but it also ensures the rack arrives in perfect condition. Furthermore, reassembly during installation is both simple and quick.

CORE’s principle

Wedgetail Core brings the trusted strength and engineering that defines Wedgetail to a wider audience, offering a straightforward and dependable roof rack solution for everyday use and weekend recreation. Designed with practicality and value in mind, Core embodies the simplicity and functionality many customers seek when engaging with the Wedgetail brand for the first time. Every aspect of Core — from its high-grade aluminium construction to its durable Matte Black Textura finish — reflects Wedgetail’s commitment to quality and reliability in real-world conditions. For those looking to experience the assurance of Wedgetail performance without the premium touring feature set, Wedgetail Core delivers a purposeful solution that complements daily tasks and recreational pursuits alike
