TUFFRAIL™ GENERAL
The latest in heavy bag mounting applications and cargo management systems. TuffRail™ General's unique patented rail style which offers state-of-the-art craftsmanship, sleek design and natural or anodized aluminum finishes. Check out our FAQ below.
The General
The TuffRail™ system makes loading and securing cargo -especially motorcycles, ATV's, and awkwardly shaped loads- easier, and faster. Using strong, easy locking TuffPins the system can be configured using just one hand while settling a heavy load.
The most popular TuffRail™ is the General. Made in the USA, this high-performance, sleek rail is designed with a low profile and includes heavy-duty T-slots with systematically placed locking points for tie-down flexibility. The passages integrated with the rail body provide easy wire management eliminating messy and dangerous wires.
TuffPins feature an X-cut channel on the bottom to allow easier movement along rails that have been dirtied up from use out in the field. Dirt and sand can be cut away just by twisting the pin slightly as it is slid in the T-slot.
The Tuffrail™ is available in 1', 4', 6', 8', 10', and 12' sections, or can be custom cut to your specifications. Also available are anodized treatments to make custom color rails that create awesome effects on any installation!
This rail system is owned by TBD Products, Inc. and protected by U.S. Design Patent #D538,219.
How does TuffRail™ stack up against the competition?
Comparison tests between the Mr. Gasket Anchortrax system (advertised as having a 1,000lb working load capacity and 3000lb breaking point) and the TuffRail™ 'General' show that TuffRail™ more than doubles this 1000lb, 3000lb rating. TuffRail systems are also offered with a limited lifetime warranty while Anchortrax offers only a 90 day limited warranty. In our video where we show our system lifting an ATV by a single pin, Scott, our operations manager breaks a competitor's rail over his knee. We don't recommend you try that with our product!
All TuffRail™ lengths and TuffPin™ pins come with a limited LIFETIME WARRANTY and are proudly MADE IN THE USA. We ship to anywhere from Germantown, WI.

Since TuffRail™ is a new product we are offering direct sales out of our facility near Milwaukee, WI. On-line ordering is available on our website. Our goal is to have packages available to distributors in major cities throughout the United States.
TuffRail™ is a product that is more robust and versatile than the conventional cargo management system. All rails are extruded from high quality aluminum which is extremely durable. TuffPin™ pins are machined from solid stainless steel stock and have all stainless steel components. The TuffPin™ pin has more mass than the typical pin, so it can withstand more load force while fitting perfectly in your hand for easy manipulation. TuffRail™ utilizes stainless steel hardware which is not only more durable and corrosion resistant, but does cost more to produce and manufacture. Our products are 100% made, manufactured, packaged, and assembled in the United States. Our products also offer a limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Many less expensive cargo management products offer the same warranty for only 90 days. TuffRail™ uses state-of-the-art craftsmanship as well as design.
Although we are still processing the formal total load limit for the complete system from a professional source we have tested the TuffRail™ General rail and TuffPin™ system in our facility. Those findings show that TuffRail surpass' the competitive product lines tested to date. Formal testing on the General rail show a deflection point at 17,561 psi on the Von Mises yield criterion. We do plan on having formal stress test results of the complete cargo systems on the website once they are available. Future test results will be published once they become available. These will be in a load capacity format since the Von Mises yield criterion is not common outside engineering. Initial comparisons indicate TuffRail™ more than doubles the working load capacity and break strength of competitor Anchortrax by Mr. Gasket (advertised at 1000lbs working limit and 3000lbs break).
