ALUCAB Expedition Gen 3-R all-aluminum roof tent, silver

Rooftop tent Alu-Cab Expedition Gen 3-R, all-aluminum construction, black

The legendary and uncompromising Alu-Cab roof tent in stylish silver or black.

The new generation 3-R tent has a weight reduction of 3 kg compared to the previous version 3.1, i.e. 75/78 kg.

The proven Alu-Cab roof tent is one of the most popular and best hard all-aluminum shell roof tents on the market.

Made of aluminum only.

The all-aluminum construction withstands even the most difficult conditions and can be safely opened and closed at any time.

With this tent, you will get rid of the problem of a cracking shell (mainly the surface treatment suffers from capillary cracks) that tents with a laminate construction have.

The interior LED lighting and USB connectors make this tent a comfortable and perfect place to sleep.

The new Gen 3-R version, with its sloping and slightly backward-sloping top section and sidewalls accentuated at the front of the tent, now underlines a more dynamic and elegant design than the previous version, and cannot be confused with competing aluminum roof tents.

The structural change of the new generation of tents, which consists of an adjustment between the aluminum rib frame and the smooth aluminum sheet, provides the roof tent with maximum robustness and attractiveness.

The new tent shape is more aerodynamic, with less wind resistance.

This will have a positive effect on improving the car's driving behavior, especially at higher speeds, as well as reducing aerodynamic noise and, of course, will also have a positive effect on the car's fuel consumption.

There are two integrated C-rails along the entire length of the tent.   The Alu-Cab Gen 3-R is very variable and can be retrofitted with a wide range of optional accessories, including for transporting cargo, placing a solar panel, bicycles, kayaks, skis, canisters, shovels, an internal positioning grid, etc.

The tent is standardly equipped with storage pockets on the front sloping wall, a mattress and anti-condensation 3D under the mattress pad and a passage for the supply of warm air from a hot air heater or mobile air conditioning unit.

The tent is designed to be walkable and can be used as a platform for photography, relaxation, etc.

The newly developed telescopic adjustable ladder simply and safely slides into the desired location for tent access.

The newly innovated ladder, thanks to its wide and inclined steps in the direction of ascent, allows you to climb in and out of the tent even barefoot.

The risers do not press into the arches of the feet.

The ladder is stored in a neat transport bag in the tent before it is completely closed after camping.

The folded ladder takes up almost no space in the tent.

Advantages of the new Alu-Cab roof tent

The Alu-Cab Expedition Gen 3-R roof tent can not only be perfectly combined with Alu-cab hardtops.

The tent is intended for permanent or temporary mounting on a vehicle.

The material from which the tent is made - aluminum - is durable, resistant to corrosion and does not age due to UV radiation, the structure does not suffer from temperature fluctuations.

When traveling truly off-road, you don't have to worry about your tent being damaged by vegetation, especially tree branches and bushes, as well as stones, gravel and sand.

The damage consists at most of scratching or denting the tent, which does not affect its function, unlike laminate tents, where fatal damage can occur and make it impossible to use it further.

Tent fabric maintenance:

The tent fabric can be easily cleaned with water, soapy water or (if necessary) a mildew and stain remover (dilute with water in the appropriate ratio depending on the type of product). Be careful not to apply a non-concentrated mildew and stain remover directly to the canvas and then "scrub" the material aggressively. This could destroy the impregnation.

Impregnation:

Waterproofing spray helps keep the waterproofing stable. However, make sure that this spray is suitable for organic materials - tent canvas. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and repeat the process until you achieve the expected result.

Aluminum shell:

To keep the aluminum body of the tent clean, you can simply use car care products and wash the tent.

Use insect remover on the front of the tent after insects and other stubborn dirt have stuck to it, just like you would on your car.

Moving mechanical parts:

Simply use a multi-purpose spray on mechanically moving surfaces to protect them from corrosion. We recommend WD-40, Brunox, etc.

Electrical parts:

To keep electrical parts inside and outside the tent protected from moisture and in good working order, treat them with an electrical contact spray.

Tent fabric seams:

Even good seams will wear out over time and can leak moisture. This can be easily fixed by sealing the seams with special tent seam sealants.

Long-term storage of the tent:

If you plan to store your tent for a longer period of time, it is important to prevent moisture condensation inside the closed tent.

1) remove the mattress and store it in a dry place

2) If possible, occasionally air the tent outdoors on a sunny day.

3) When storing the tent in enclosed spaces (garage, hall, barn), open the tent occasionally and ventilate it.
