ARB Bull Bars

Vital for rural and remote area travel, ARB bull bars will provide substantially improved protection for vulnerable mechanical components against animal strikes whilst providing a solid base for mounting other accessories like driving lights, winches and CB antennas.

ARB bars are superbly engineered and manufactured to not only maintain maximum functionality, but also to ensure they complement the look of the vehicle.

Deluxe Bull Bar

Deluxe Bull Bar

Manufactured from steel for ultimate strength and powder coated for durability, the Deluxe bull bar is designed to complement the vehicle’s style and safety systems while offering a solid platform to mount essential 4WD accessories in a seamless and integrated package.

Available for the Mazda BT-50 models, the Deluxe bull bar is compatible with a selection of Warn, Smittybilt and Bushranger low mount winches. A cover panel finishes off the bar for when a winch is not fitted. To complement the bar, optional fog light kits are also available.

For added aesthetics, optional colour coding is available on all models

Note: Suits 4WD models only.

Features

  • Vehicle specific design to complement the Mazda BT-50 and maximise functionality
  • Durable steel construction for maximum protection
  • Incorporates ARB’s renowned multi fold upswept and tapered wing design for optimum strength and approach angle
  • Split pan design for maximum strength and airflow
  • Cover straps attached to the uprights ensure there are no exposed edges
  • Continuous uprights through the bumper section of the bar strengthens the outer frame
  • Superbly engineered, air bag compatible mounting system secures to chassis via high tensile bolts
  • Equally suited to winch and non-winch applications
  • Winch model will accommodate a selection of Warn, Magnum and Bushranger low mount model electric winches
  • Twin Hi-Lift jacking points located in the pan of the bar
  • Provision to accommodate ARB Intensity LED, and a range of IPF and Bushranger driving lights
  • Injection moulded fog light/turn signal surrounds
  • Durable urethane buffers
  • Durable tow points incorporated into the chassis
  • Two aerial brackets located in the frame of the bar
  • Finished in a hard-wearing powder coat with the added option of colour coding to individual vehicles

    Laser Cutting

    Laser Cutting

    Every bull bar starts its life as a flat sheet of steel. Individual components are cut to shape using ARB’s state of the art, computer aided laser cutters which can cut to a tolerance of just 0.2mm with no heat distortion, resulting in superior surface finishes and accuracy.

    Folding

    Folding

    Individual components are then folded to make up the sections of the bull bar using a Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) machine which ensures maximum accuracy and consistency. Most bull bars utilise ARB’s five fold design, with each fold providing additional strength.

    Tube Work

    Tube Work

    ARB bull bars are made with strong, 2.6mm wall thickness tubing. The tube is cut to the desired length and bent with a CNC Eagle internal mandrel bender ensuring consistency, accuracy and an even wall thickness across all sections.

    Robot Welding

    Robot Welding

    Once folded, each section is welded utilising a robot welder. Robot welders are used for straightforward, repetitive welding jobs that require deep penetration, speed and accuracy.

    Assembly

    Assembly

    When individual components are complete, the bull bar is assembled. All sections including pan, wing, uprights, outer frame and chassis brackets are placed in a jig and tack welded. This is followed by finish welding and grinding for strength and aesthetics. Jigs are assessed regularly to ensure accuracy.

    Post Assembly

    Post Assembly

    To complete the manufacturing process all ARB bars are shot blasted, before entering a 5 stage chemical wash to prepare the surface for maximum powder adhesion. They’re then powder coated and oven baked to ensure a rich and durable finish. As well as being an attractive and durable finish, power coating provides an excellent base for painting if colour coding is required.
