The Professional’s Choice for Service Body Racks
Your service body truck is the backbone of your business, and mounting a ladder rack shouldn’t be a compromise. The Kargo Master Pro II Heavy-Duty Side Channels (78013) are the definitive solution for establishing an unshakeable foundation for your Pro II rack system on any 8-foot service body. Forget about universal-fit brackets that create stress points and damage your vehicle; these channels are purpose-built to distribute weight evenly and securely across the entire length of your truck’s body. Engineered by Kargo Master, a leader in commercial-grade equipment, these side channels transform your service body into a fully integrated and highly capable cargo-hauling platform, ensuring your expensive equipment is transported safely and efficiently.
Engineered for Unmatched Strength and Durability
At the core of the Kargo Master 78013 is its robust, heavy-gauge steel construction. This isn’t just any steel; it’s specifically chosen for its high tensile strength and resistance to flexing under extreme loads. This ensures that once your rack is mounted, it stays put, eliminating rattling, shifting, and vibration that can occur with lesser systems. The engineering goes beyond just material choice. These channels are designed to follow the specific contours and mounting points of a service body, providing a seamless, factory-quality fit. This precise fitment is critical for safety, as it guarantees that the load from your ladders, lumber, or conduit is transferred directly into the strongest parts of the truck’s frame, protecting the integrity of your service body compartments and doors.
All-Weather Performance and Seamless Integration
Professionals work in all conditions, and their equipment must be able to withstand the elements. The Pro II Side Channels are coated with a thick, gloss white Tuff-Kote™ powder coat finish. This advanced coating creates an impenetrable barrier against moisture, salt, road grime, and harsh UV rays, preventing rust and corrosion for years of reliable service. The durable finish also resists scratches and chipping, keeping your truck looking professional and well-maintained. As a key component of the Pro II system, these channels feature pre-drilled mounting holes that align perfectly with Kargo Master rack legs, drastically reducing installation time and eliminating any guesswork. This seamless integration makes it easy to build out your complete cargo solution with other Ladder Racks And Equipment, creating a cohesive and incredibly functional system.
