Give your American pickup the storage, security and weather protection it deserves with the MW Aluminium Tub Canopy. Purpose-built for large American utes including the RAM 1500, RAM 2500–3500, Chevrolet Silverado and Ford F-150 LWB, this canopy is engineered to handle everything Australian touring and trade life can throw at it. If you also run a standard dual-cab ute, browse our full [Tub Canopy Collection →internal link: /collections/tub-canopies] to find the right fit for your vehicle.

The entire canopy is built from lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminium and finished in a tough powder-coated black coating, weighing approximately 76kg. Three entrances — two side doors and a rear door — make loading easy from any angle, while built-in glass on the front panel and rear door keeps your visibility clear.

Strength is engineered in. The internal ceiling is reinforced with multi-purpose unistrut tracks, and the side doors are reinforced for extra stability and security. Up top, multi-purpose roof mounting rails let you add [roof racks and crossbars →internal link: /collections/roof-racks] or a roof platform to carry even more gear on your next trip.
