MAXTRAX MKII Signature Orange Pair MTX02SOP – Proven 4x4 Recovery

When getting stuck is not part of the plan, having dependable recovery equipment on board can make all the difference. The MAXTRAX MKII Signature Orange Pair MTX02SOP is the original MAXTRAX recovery track, designed to provide a safe, simple and effective way to help get a vehicle moving again when traction is lost.

With its distinctive Signature Orange colour, aggressive traction cleats and tough reinforced Nylon construction, MAXTRAX MKII has become a trusted recovery solution for 4x4 touring, overlanding, camping and off-road adventures.

The Original MAXTRAX Recovery Track

MAXTRAX MKII is designed to provide a firm traction surface beneath the vehicle's tyres when travelling through challenging terrain.

The large, aggressive cleats are designed to engage with the tyre tread while providing traction against the terrain underneath. This can help a vehicle regain forward movement when conventional traction is limited in conditions such as sand, mud and snow.

Tough Engineering-Grade Construction

MAXTRAX MKII is manufactured from UV-stabilised, flexible and super-tough engineering-grade reinforced Nylon.

The material provides a combination of strength and flexibility, allowing the recovery boards to withstand the demands of off-road use while remaining relatively lightweight and easy to handle.

MAXTRAX boards have also been tested at the University of Queensland to wrap around a 33-inch tyre without breaking.

Built-In Shovel Ends

Getting a recovery board into position can sometimes require removing loose sand, mud or other material from around the tyre.

MAXTRAX MKII incorporates a built-in shovel at each end, allowing the board itself to be used to help clear material and create space beneath the tyre.

This practical feature means you don't necessarily need to carry a separate shovel just to position the recovery board.

Six Comfortable Handles

Moving recovery boards around during a recovery can be awkward, particularly when the boards are covered in mud or sand.

MAXTRAX MKII features six built-in handles, providing multiple gripping positions and making it easier to carry and position the boards.

The boards also feature a double-edged design that allows them to be manoeuvred into position beneath the tyres more easily.

Signature Orange – Easy to Spot

The Signature Orange colour is the original MAXTRAX colour and is instantly recognisable.

The highly visible colour can also make the boards easier to locate when working in sand, mud or other environments where recovery equipment can become partially buried.

Each pair includes two orange telltale leashes, which can help locate the boards if they become covered during a recovery.

Compact and Easy to Carry

Despite their robust construction, MAXTRAX MKII recovery boards are designed to remain relatively lightweight and easy to transport.

Each board measures approximately 1150mm long × 330mm wide × 85mm high and weighs approximately 3.4kg.

A pair weighs approximately 6.8kg, making them practical to carry as part of a larger 4x4 recovery kit.

When stacked together, the pair has a combined height of approximately 95mm, helping keep storage requirements to a minimum.

Ready for Touring and Overlanding

MAXTRAX MKII is a practical addition to a well-equipped 4x4, whether you're heading out for a weekend camping trip or travelling further into remote areas.

The recovery boards are suitable for use in a range of terrain, including:

Sand
Mud
Snow
Soft or slippery terrain
Off-road tracks

Their compact design also makes them easy to incorporate into a vehicle's touring setup, whether carried inside the vehicle or mounted externally using compatible MAXTRAX mounting accessories.

Integrated Mounting Points

MAXTRAX MKII features keyhole accessory points, allowing the boards to be securely mounted to a suitable vehicle or carrying system.

A range of mounting options is available, making it possible to incorporate the recovery boards into different roof rack and overlanding configurations.

Australian Made and Built to Last

MAXTRAX MKII is designed, engineered and manufactured in Australia using high-quality materials and manufacturing processes.

MAXTRAX backs its recovery boards with a lifetime warranty against faulty materials and workmanship, subject to the manufacturer's warranty terms.

A Recovery Essential for the 4x4 Traveller

The MAXTRAX MKII Signature Orange Pair MTX02SOP provides a proven combination of traction, portability and durability.

From weekend adventures to extended overland journeys, MAXTRAX MKII provides a simple and practical recovery option to carry whenever the terrain becomes challenging.
