Pro-Level Light Output. The SS40 Pro lightbar uses the same automotive-grade LED emitters and TIR (Total Internal Reflection) optics as the Sport model, but steps up with a noticeable boost in power and raw light output — ideal for serious off-road or overland use. The Combo beam pattern balances spot and flood characteristics for versatile, real-world illumination.

Fully Illuminated Backlight. Unlike typical aftermarket light bars, the SS40 Stage Series features a backlight that fully illuminates the TIR optic housing even when the main beam is off, providing distinctive ambient accent lighting unique to the Stage Series lineup.

Adventure-Ready Platform. The Kuat DEK rack platform features a modular, low-profile design with adjustable crossbars and integrated T-channels for mounting rooftop tents, recovery boards, or overland gear. All-metal construction keeps the system lightweight without sacrificing structural integrity.
