Description
The Bush Company's AX27 Clamshell Rooftop Tent is the benchmark for hard shell RTTs built for the demanding conditions of Australian overlanding. It combines heavy-duty construction with smart, integrated technology to deliver rapid deployment, secure storage, and premium comfort.
Built for the Toughest Tracks
The AX27 features the proprietary B-Tech™ Alloy Frame, engineered for extreme rigidity and durability. When closed, the tent supports a significant 200kg dynamic load, allowing you to securely carry solar panels, recovery boards, or extra gear directly on the roof. When open, it maintains a 50kg static load capacity—perfect for internal storage or lightweight accessories.
- Rapid Deployment: The tent utilises a gas-strut assisted opening system, allowing for lightning-fast setup (and pack-down) so you can spend less time fumbling with gear and more time relaxing.
- Heavy-Duty Materials: The tent body is constructed from robust 310gsm acrylic-infused canvas, offering superior weather resistance, breathability, and durability compared to standard materials.
Integrated Power and Modular Customisation
One of the AX27’s key benefits is its integrated technology, simplifying your electrical setup and eliminating messy wiring.
- Seamless Power: Built-in 12V and USB power ports allow you to effortlessly charge phones, power lights, or run small accessories directly from your tent's system.
- Ezi-Slot™ Accessory System: The proprietary external Ezi-Slot™ channels are game-changers for modularity. They enable you to attach awnings, brackets, and other accessories without drilling or modification, making customisation quick and preserving your tent's structural integrity.
Premium Sleep and Ventilation
A great night's sleep is guaranteed with the dual-density 80mm mattress, providing superior support and comfort compared to thinner standard foam. The tent is designed for flexible living and ventilation:
- Flexible Access: With three separate access points, you can configure your setup to best suit your vehicle and camp layout.
- Bug Protection: Each entry point includes durable mesh screens, ensuring excellent airflow while keeping insects out.
