Toolmaster Series Fiberglass Truck Cap by ARE Click for Pricing
Description
The A.R.E. ToolMaster Series is a heavy-duty fiberglass commercial truck cap solution designed for professional and work-oriented use. It combines the traditional styling and quality construction found in A.R.E.’s V Series and other fiberglass caps with built-in tool storage, tough access doors, and commercial-grade racks — ideal for contractors, technicians, service fleets, and tradespeople.
Key Features
- Rugged Fiberglass Construction: Built on a fiberglass cap shell, offering durability and a premium painted finish that can be matched to your truck’s color.
- Heavy-Duty Side Toolboxes: Two steel toolboxes integrated into the cap design (one per side), each typically rated around 120 lb capacity, for organized and secure tool storage.
- Commercial Roof Rack: Includes a Prime Design AluRack commercial ladder rack with a ladder roller, making it easy to carry ladders, pipes, lumber, and other long gear.
- Privacy & Security: Side and rear doors with aluminum inserts help protect contents and provide privacy/security.
- Toolbox Clearance: Designed with adequate clearance (e.g., ~14″ minimum) under the toolboxes to make sure you can load gear efficiently.
- Style + Function: Combines commercial work utility with the smooth look and finish of a fiberglass cap — a step up from simple utility caps.
- Customization: Typically available on various A.R.E. fiberglass profiles (e.g., V Series, CX Series, MX Series) — with options like roof racks, lighting, padded headliner, CargoGlide cargo slides, Yakima racks, or interior lighting depending on retailer/dealer.
