Description
The Vantech H1 System for the Ford Transit cargo van is the perfect crossbar ladder rack solution, no matter your trade!
Crossbars
Choose from either a 2-bar or 3-bar system! Each crossbar can hold up to 250 lbs. (with weight evenly distributed). Each crossbar is 2″ x 1″ made with either reinforced extruded aluminum or 18-gauge steel with internal structural support (depending on aluminum/steel option selected). The crossbars are protected by a rubber bar guard on top to prevent scratching of your ladder and your ladder rack.
Mounting Uprights
The mounting uprights are 3mm thick at the base and anodized the same color as the crossbars. The mounting uprights are 8″ x 2″ at the base and 10.5″ total height. The base is welded onto the upright post for a complete seal. Each upright has four (4) 3/4″ eyehooks for convenient and easy strapping. The rubber cap on each upright post prevents wind noise and water leakage. No drilling is required to attach the mounting uprights to the van.
Securing Ladders
The H1 ladder rack system includes a 5″ ladder stopper to prevent the ladder from sliding forward. The H1 system also includes a 5.5″ ladder guide for easy bungee and tie-down attachment on the crossbar. Both the ladder stopper and the ladder guide are galvanized and rubber dipped. The included easy turn knob allows for quick adjustments and removal of the ladder stopper and ladder guide. A hook & loop strap is also included to secure ladders within seconds, holding up to 75 lbs. Each 2-bar system includes 1 of each stopper, guide, and strap (with the option to purchase another set) and 3-bar systems include 2 of each.
Rear Roller Bar
Add an optional rear roller bar to extend the contact point of the rack beyond the rear doors. This helps eliminate damage to the top/rear of the van that may occur from loading/unloading ladders, material, or other equipment. The roller and the extension plate are made from aluminum. The roller is anodized silver and the extension plates are powdercoated to match the color of your rack. The roller connects to your H1 system via the included hardware which secures the extension plates to the eye hooks in the rear H1 mounting uprights. The roller sits slightly lower than the crossbars so it will not interfere with the placement of your ladders or other equipment.
Conduit Carrier
Add an optional conduit carrier to your H1 system to carry pipes, rods, and other materials. Choose from either the Vantech 128″ aluminum compartment tube or purchase just the end caps and use your own 6″ PVC to create any length conduit carrier. Vantech’s aluminum compartment tube is split in half by default, allowing for easy sorting and retrieval of materials. The tube can also be changed from 2 to 3 or 4 compartments and is available in silver or white. The end caps are lockable and the lid includes a thick rubber gasket to keep moisture and other elements out of the conduit carrier.
