Looking to get the most out of your Sprinter van? Then check out the all-new Wedgetail! their Wedgetail rack is a new generation roof rack, combining the aesthetics and functionality of the new generation composite assembled rack combined with the strength and functionality, synonymous with the ‘Tradesman’ name. Wedgetail roof racks integrate the all-new Wedge-lock glass-reinforced corners that significantly increase the strength of this design with a full off-road rating for your Sprinter. With so many variants available on their Sprinter range, you’ll be sure to find the perfect configuration to suit your needs. This clever Australian designed, large format flexible rack includes flexibility in vent, solar panel and awning locations. Flexibility is key, therefore their many configuration options make it easy for you to transport all your lifestyle gear including kayaks, bikes, surfboards as well as all your camping, boating and fishing gear. All Wedgetail racks are manufactured right here in Australia by longstanding industry veteran, Tradesman Roof Racks.

The Wedgetail roof rack to suit the Sprinter fits by securing sturdy brackets to the existing 8 mm hardware positions and then is sealed to the roof using suitable natural cure silicon. Once these are fitted Wedgetail fasten four of their Wedge-wing mounting kits to which the Wedgetail platform connects, giving a higher load rating and improved aesthetics.

The Wedgetail platform uses sturdy crossbars that run to the left and right of the vehicle. This crossbar incorporates a heavy-duty channel both facing upwards and downwards. These channels allow any Wedgetail accessories to be quickly locked in or out; this also means that a large variety of alternative accessories can easily be fitted to the Wedgetail rack if necessary.

All Wedgetail racks come standard with a wind deflector to minimise wind noise as much as possible. As well as this Wedgetail racks also include their unique Wedge-flow crossbar design which is the culmination of years of design experience in minimising wind noise. The Wedgetail rack to suit the Sprinter is no different; Wedgetail understand how frustrating a noisy roof rack can be and have put every effort into ensuring that the Wedgetail rack is as quiet as it can be. LOAD

One thing you can be sure about with a Wedgetail rack is that no matter what road you are on in this country their full load rating will apply. Wedgetail racks do not need to be de-rated in off-road conditions due to the design and construction methods used, including their wedge-lock corners. The load rating for the Wedgetail rack fitted to a Sprinter is 150kg (you must be aware of your vehicle's roof loading. This information will be available from Mercedes-Benz). It is essential that you take the weight of the Wedgetail platform off your roof rating, and this will give you your legal carrying capacity (the reason Wedgetail don't list this on the website is that it can vary between model variants).
