Ute Tub Hard Lids

A hard lid does more than cover your tub. It secures your gear, keeps the weather out, adds load capacity on top, and turns a bare tub into something you can actually work with.

Utemaster makes two options - the premium Load-Lid, built without compromise for those who want the best, and the GearForce Hard Lid, backed by the same nearly two decades of design and manufacturing expertise at a more accessible price point.
