What is a Ute Hard Lid?

A Ute Hard Lid is typically constructed from plastic or fibreglass and is designed to cover the items in your tub. Although there are some strengths to a Hard Lid there are also some major weaknesses which is why we have developed the Utemaster Load-Lid™.

What is the Load-Lid?

The Utemaster Load-Lid™ is the world's toughest, most customisable Ute Hard Lid. Built to handle the most demanding missions. Constructed with lightweight aluminium this is no ordinary Tonneau Tub Cover. This is a Hard Lid that adds style, appeal and convenience to modern-day utes.

The Load-Lid™ will enhance the practicality of your tub area. Your belongings will be safe and dry underneath the lid. Whether it be a weekend trip away with the family or a full-on day at the job site, the Utemaster Load-Lid™ will unleash your utes potential. Read on to find out why the Load-Lid™ is the best Hard Lid on the market. 

Load Rated to 200kgs!

Design Registration PCT/NZ2019/050078

Heavy Duty Finish

The 3mm hardwearing aluminium treadplate construction means that you don’t have to worry about damaging your precious hard top! Whether you have a dirty wheelbarrow, lawnmower, ladder, pallet, kayak or mountain bike, the Load-Lid™ will work for you.
The Load-Lid™ comes standard coated in a teflon-based matte black Powdercoat.

Water Displacement

A complete automotive bulb seal provides a positive seal against the top of your tub. When the Load-Lid™ is opened water runs off the back of your lid and onto the ground - not into your tub, protecting the tools and equipment you have in your tub.

Very Easy to Remove, and Refit!

The Load-Lid™ can easily be removed by undoing the x4 wing bolts holding it in place. This can be done in a matter of minutes and all you'll need is a mate to help lift it off.

This gives you the space you'll need to carry objects such as a fridge, washing machine or motorbike in your tub. 

Please note, installation instructions may differ slightly depending on vehicle model, accessories and Load-Lid type.
