Type 8 Bar

The Type 8 Frontal Protection Bar provides motor vehicles with full frontal protection while adding very little weight to the front of the vehicle. The Type 8 Bar is designed to provide protection to a vehicle’s bumper, grill, cooling equipment and headlights.

In addition, they are very light in weight at around 12kg. Each bar is constructed of T6 Hi-Tensile alloy tube of two sizes: The center tube is 63mm x 4.75mm, while the outer wings are constructed of 44mm x 3.25mm tube.

All Type 8 Bars come with a pair of spotlight mounting tabs located on the center horizontal tube. Their sophisticated steel mounting brackets ensure both a secure fixture to the vehicle, whilst maintaining ADR requirements regarding vehicle crumple zones in the event of a frontal collision.

In addition, the mounting system will not interfere with the deployment of vehicle Air Bags.

All Type 8 Bars come with a Lifetime Warranty and are available in 4 finishes:

Polished Alloy (Mirror Finish)
Silver Ripple (Powdercoat)
Black Ripple (Powdercoat)
Silver Hammertone (Powdercoat)
