The Quick Pitch Roof Top Tent is a hard-shell tent that fits onto any vehicle or SUV. The tent is manufactured from the best quality extruded aluminum and no bolts or pop-rivets are used in the structure which means no potential leaks. We found that by welding the aluminum parts together the life of the tent is prolonged. Because we are using extrusions, we do not use hinges as we designed the extrusions in a matter where the two extrusions fit snuggly into each other and swivel within one another, which means that the weight of the top is distributed evenly across the width of the tent. The tent itself is manufactured by the best quality canvas.
The Quick Pitch Roof Top Tent has an awning on all sides of the tent to prevent rain and dew from dripping on the tent and it gives more shade to keep the tent cooler inside. The tent takes seconds to pitch and 40kg can be loaded on the tent roof. The bedding can be kept in the tent as it has enough space even when in traveling mode to accommodate your bedding. Features a 12v outlet and include 2x USB ports with an interior light, convenience / storage bags situated in tent ceiling. Two tone powder coated finish on the outside for a great look. Anti-slip telescopic ladder included with a safety bracket that secures ladder in place. The mattress is high density foam with a 15mm insolation layer under the mattress as well as a high-density insolation in the roof. The Quick Pitch RTT will become your sleeping cocoon away from home.
The Quick Pitch roof-tent was first released in 2019 and takes a fresh look at traditional closed-box RTT designs, with many unique features. Water ingress when driving in rain at speed is eliminated because of a patented extruded full-width pivot point between the upper and lower halves. There are no hinges! Can also be used as a roof rack, using optional loadbars.
With load-rails running the full-length top and sides, items (to a 40kg max) such as jacks, spades, awnings, lights and axes can be fitted anywhere with standard bolts. Does not need special mounting brackets or bolts, and thanks to its attachment rails, can be easily fitted on any good load-bar or roof-rack. The Quick Pitch RTT is manufactured using stateof-the-art jigs, resulting in consistent quality of manufacture, unique patented aluminum extrusion designs, with no external hinges or rivets that can eventually fatigue and let in water.
They are Tig-welded together by our in-house welding maestro, whose real name is Welder. We’re not kidding! Designed by a South African and Australian team, our tent is built outside Pretoria and helps SA’s balance of payments as most are sold in North America and Australia. And we just love doing what we do!
