2005 - 14 Mustang RideTech Tiger Cage, Bolt-in Roll Cage System

• Connects to structural strength points of the vehicle in the floorboard, A pillar, toeboard, rockerpanel, B pillar, package tray and framerail areas – avoids the need to permanently alter your musclecar with weld-in subframe connectors
• Constructed of .120” wall 304 grade stainless tubing .
• Patented TigerClamps and bungs are made of investment cast 304 stainless steel. The tabs are .375” lasercut plate stainless.
• The TigerClamp has been tested to resist more than 670 ft. lbs of rotational force against the tubing. This means that it takes over 670 ft lbs of force to rotate the TigerClamp around the axis of the tubing. Most small block Chevy’s don’t make that much torque!
• The TigerClamp system will be available in bulk quantities to suspension manufacturers who wish to develop their own applications

STAINLESS STEEL TUBING

304 Stainless tubing has a tensile strength of 73,200 psi. This is compared to 1020 mild steel at 63,000 psi and 4130 chrome moly at 106,000psi.

Most current sanctioning body specs require a 1.625” OD .095” wall mild steel which would have a rating of 35,700 lbs. We use a 1.75OD .120” wall 304 stainless tubing that has a load rating of 43,015lbs As you can see, our stainless tubing has a slightly higher rating than the typical mild steel product.

CLAMPS AND BUNGS

The TigerClamp and bung components are made from a 304 cast stainless material by an AMERICAN casting foundry.

We have tested the clamp collars to resist over 670 lb. Ft. of rotational torque. We have tested the pivot connection to resist over 250 lb. Ft. of torque.

bracketry

In car bracketry is all 304 3/16” thick stainless. We use 1020 steel backing plates underneath the car to evenly distribute the load through the oem floorpans and pillars.

FASTENERS

The ½-20 thread pivot bolts are rated at 180,000psi tensile strength, which would equal a direct load rating of 25,500 lbs.

The 3/8-24 clamp collar bolts are also rated at 180,000psi tensile strength, which would equal a direct load rating of 15,800 lbs. each.

The fasteners used to attach the bracketry to the vehicle are grade 8 or better, rated at least to 150,000psi, which would provide a direct load rating of approx. 11,600 lbs each.
