ALUMINIUM UTE TRAYS
Built tough. For those who value gear that works as hard as they do.
At Tong Metal, every tray begins with purpose. We design for people who live and work from their vehicles — tradies, travellers, and everyday adventurers who need gear that performs without compromise.
Each tray is crafted from high-grade aluminium, fully welded from start to finish for lasting durability. The design blends strength and usability, featuring structural C-channel chassis rails, heavy-duty tie-down rails, and precision-fit mudguards.
But it’s not just about toughness. Every corner, weld and finish has been refined through years of experience to make your setup easier to use, cleaner in design and built to last.

You can enhance the look of your tray with the option to have it powder coated.
- Powder coat adds colour to your tray to give it that individual touch. There is a range of colours available. For examples, please see the “Guide to Powder Coating”
- Powder coat seals the aluminium for easier cleaning and ultimately keeping your investment looking good for longer.
- Quality Preparation: Once manufactured and dry fitted, the project is disassembled into its components, sanded, acid washed, dipped in chromate.
- The project is then sprayed with the powder coating material, baked in an oven at 200 degrees, and then once cooled, reassembled and finished.
- Powder coat is hard-wearing and more UV fade resistant than other sprayed applications.
