ROCK OFF® Caravan Stone Guard Brush HITCH MOUNT KIT

The ROCK OFF Caravan Stone Guard Brush – Hitch Mount Kit is designed to reduce stone damage, road spray, and debris thrown up while towing.
Mounted directly to the tow hitch, the brush creates a flexible barrier that absorbs impact before stones reach your caravan, camper, or trailer.

Unlike rigid guards, the brush moves with the road and towing conditions. It’s tough, low-maintenance, and suitable for sealed and unsealed roads. Ideal for touring, off-road travel, and everyday towing.

Proudly Australian made using durable materials built for harsh conditions.


In Simple Terms

When you tow, your rear tyres throw stones straight at your caravan, or your towed vehicle if you travel by Motorhome.
The ROCK OFF brush sits in the firing line and stops most of that damage before it happens.


What’s Included in the Kit

  • Hitch mount Powder coated steel bracket

  • Heavy-duty stone guard brush assembly

  • Fixings and mounting hardware

  • Simple installation instructions

(Tow hitch not included)


How to Choose the Right ROCK OFF Kit – 5 Simple Steps

STEP 1 – Check your tow hitch sizeROCK-OFF-Height-Measurement-Diagram
Confirm your vehicle uses a standard 50mm tow hitch receiver.

STEP 2 – Measure available clearance
Ensure there is enough room on the tongue of your Hitch to hold the Hitch Mount receiver bracket.  We have 2 sizes of receiver, 40mmm and 65mm.

STEP 3 – Measure your mounting height

Take your height measurements at a time when your towing vehicle and caravan or trailer is fully loaded — this will ensure any suspension systems you have in place are considered.

Measure from the ground to the mark where the top of your ROCK OFF Hitch Mount will be located. Deduct 100mm for road clearance and a further 50mm allowance for the backing of the brush and Mounting rail, total 150mm. This will provide the ideal bristle length option for your vehicle.

Remember that our drop down options shows the “bristle length”, so you will need to allow 50mm for the brush backing when you choose. If unsure, choose your ROCK OFF at the shorter measurement – you can always lower your fitting later.  If your ROCK OFF bristle is too long, it is difficult to trim.

STEP 4 – Exhaust considerations

Keep exhaust flow and heat away from ROCK OFF. This product performs best when installed with plenty of distance away from your vehicle’s exhaust outlet. ROCK OFF is made from tough Polypropylene fibre, but it can be damaged by exhaust heat build-up.

Exhaust Shield and Extension Kits are available to allow free flow of your exhaust heat away from your towing vehicle. Alternatively, consider modifying your vehicle’s exhaust system to a side-exit style.

Recommended mounting positions:

For towing vehicles with a straight exhaust outlet: Consider mounting ROCK OFF underneath the exhaust pipe.

For towing vehicles with a downward-facing exhaust outlet:
Consider our Exhaust Extension Kit. Particularly if your exhaust outlet is less than 450mm from your intended ROCK OFF Mounting.

STEP 5 – Other considerations

Aftermarket accessories (mudflaps, chains, Anderson plugs, auxiliary fittings etc) may need consideration when determining the mounting height and bristle length of your ROCK OFF.

Note – chain-attached vehicle mud flaps are not recommended as these can cause stones to bounce underneath your ROCK OFF and strike your caravan.

Check access to accessories and auxiliary fittings such as Anderson plugs and reversing lights. These accessories may have components or cables which may impact your mounting position. If possible, mount ROCK OFF underneath or above these fittings to ensure easy access.

Stable-iser Brush – Stable Guard Brush for Horses and Livestock

The Stable-iser Brush is a practical and durable solution for maintaining a cleaner and tidier stable environment.  This brush fits securely to the floor of a horse or livestock stable to reduce the amount of hay, straw, and bedding dragged outside the stall. The bristles stand upright, allowing hooves to pass through while stopping bedding from leaving the stable. So keeping work areas cleaner and reducing waste. Designed and manufactured in Australia.

Built with strength and longevity in mind, the Stable-iser Brush is made from high-quality materials. Proven in tough conditions and safe for animals.

Product Specifications

  • Size: 1980mm x 150mm trim – can be cut to your desired length
  • Backing: 25mm x 45mm Black HDPE with chamfered edge
  • Mounting: Countersunk holes for secure and easy installation
  • Bristles: 2 staggered rows of 0.040″ Black UV stabilised polypropylene fibre
  • Trim height: 150mm

Key Features

  • Reduces mess and waste: Prevents stable bedding and feed from being dragged out onto walkways.

  • Built to last: Backing made from durable HDPE with UV stabilised polypropylene bristles for long-term performance.
  • Easy to install: Pre-drilled countersunk holes allow for quick and secure fixing to stable floors.
  • Australian made: Manufactured locally to ensure high quality, fast supply, and support for Australian industries.

Why Choose the Stable-iser Brush?

A stable environment needs to be both safe and efficient. Loose hay and bedding outside the stall not only create unnecessary cleaning work but can also be a slipping hazard. The Stable-iser Brush helps contain bedding inside the stable, saving time and effort for horse owners and stable managers. Its robust design ensures that it withstands heavy daily use, while the flexible polypropylene fibres allow horses to step through comfortably.

The Stable-iser Brush is a cost-effective and reliable stable guard brush that reduces waste, cuts down on cleaning, and helps maintain a neater, safer work environment around your animals. Whether you manage a small private stable or a large equestrian facility, this brush provides a simple and effective solution to a common problem.

What is UHMWPE?

UHMWPE (Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) is a tough, low-friction plastic with high wear resistance, impact strength, and chemical resistance. It’s self-lubricating, moisture-resistant, and widely used in industrial applications like chute liners, wear strips, and conveyor components. Lightweight and easy to machine, it reduces friction and withstands extreme conditions.

What are the properties of UHMWPE?

  • Durability: UHMWPE is highly durable, offering exceptional wear resistance, impact strength, and chemical resistance, making it suitable for harsh environments and heavy-duty applications.
  • Chemical Resistance: UHMWPE has excellent chemical resistance, withstanding most acids, alkalis, and solvents, but it can be affected by strong oxidizers like nitric or sulfuric acid.
  • Weather Resistance: UHMWPE has good weather resistance, being UV-stable to some extent, but prolonged sun exposure can cause degradation without additives.
  • Versatility: UHMWPE is highly versatile, used in industries like mining, food processing, marine, and material handling due to its durability, low friction, and chemical resistance.
  • Low Moisture Absorption: Yes, UHMWPE has extremely low moisture absorption, making it ideal for wet environments and applications requiring dimensional stability.
  • Lightweight: UHMWPE is lightweight, with a density lower than water, allowing it to float and making it easy to handle and install.

Can UHMWPE handle heat?

UHMWPE has moderate heat resistance, with a continuous use temperature of around 80–100°C. It softens above this range and melts at approximately 130–140°C. While it can handle brief exposure to higher temperatures, prolonged heat weakens its structure.

Unlike high-temperature plastics like PTFE or PEEK, UHMWPE is not ideal for extreme heat applications. However, it performs well in cold environments, remaining tough and impact-resistant even at -200°C. For applications requiring higher heat resistance, alternative materials or UHMWPE blends with heat stabilizers may be needed.

Is UHMWPE Plastic suitable for Food Grade applications?

Yes, UHMWPE is suitable for food-grade applications due to the following reasons:

  • FDA & EU Compliance – Meets food safety regulations for direct contact with food.
  • Non-Toxic & Odorless – Does not contaminate food products.
  • Low Moisture Absorption – Prevents bacterial growth and maintains hygiene.
  • Chemical Resistance – Withstands cleaning agents and sanitizers without degradation.
  • Low Friction Surface – Reduces sticking and eases material flow in food processing.
  • High Wear Resistance – Durable for conveyor systems, cutting boards, and food equipment.
  • Temperature Limits – Suitable for cold and moderate heat applications but not for high-temperature cooking.
  • Easy to Machine & Maintain – Can be cut, shaped, and cleaned efficiently.

Common uses include conveyor components, cutting boards, wear strips, and food processing machinery parts. However, always verify specific grade compliance with industry standards.

How strong is UHMWPE?

UHMWPE is a strong and durable plastic with the following key properties:

  • High Impact Strength – Absorbs heavy impacts without cracking or breaking.
  • Excellent Wear Resistance – Outlasts many other plastics in abrasive environments.
  • Tensile Strength – Typically ranges from 20–40 MPa, lower than metals but sufficient for heavy-duty applications.
  • High Energy Absorption – Can withstand repeated stress and deformation without failure.
  • Self-Lubricating – Reduces friction and wear in moving parts.
  • Good Fatigue Resistance – Maintains strength under repeated load cycles.
  • Low Notch Sensitivity – Less prone to cracking or breaking under stress.

Commonly used in conveyor systems, chute liners, marine fenders, and impact-resistant parts. While strong for plastic, it is not as rigid as metals and may deform under excessive load.

Uses of UHMWPE Rod:

  • Conveyor components (guides, wear strips, rollers)
  • Chute and hopper liners
  • Cutting boards (food-grade applications)
  • Marine fenders and dock bumpers
  • Sprockets and chain guides
  • Gears and bushings
  • Bearings and wear pads
  • Material handling equipment (slides, rollers)
  • Truck bed liners
  • Snowplow and scraper blades
  • Medical implants (joint replacements)
  • Bulletproof vests and armor panels
  • Mining equipment (liners, guides)
  • Pulp and paper industry components
  • Chemical-resistant tank linings

Heavy-Duty Tube Brushes for Cleaning Chem-Set Holes

Proper hole preparation is critical for a strong chemical anchor bond, and our Heavy-Duty Tube Brushes are designed specifically for this task. Whether you’re anchoring bolts, reinforcing structures, or securing heavy-duty fixings, cleaning the hole thoroughly before applying ChemSet adhesive ensures maximum strength and durability.

Why Use Our Tube Brushes?

Durable Construction – Made with stiff Polypropylene fibre and a Galvanized Wire twisted stem for long-lasting performance.
Effective Cleaning – Strong bristles remove dust, debris, and contaminants for a clean bond surface.
Three Sizes Available – Covering most standard hole diameters used in chemical anchoring.
Reusable & Cost-Effective – Built to withstand repeated use without compromising performance.

  • 28mm Dia Tube Brush – 320mm Long (Blue Loop) suitable for Tubes 16mm-28mm

How to Clean Chem-Set Holes with a Tube Brush

  1. Blow Out Loose Debris – Use compressed air or a hand pump to remove dust and loose particles from the drilled hole. Insert the nozzle fully and blow air out while withdrawing.
  2. Brush the Hole – Insert the tube brush to the full depth of the hole, then rotate and move it in and out several times to loosen dust.
  3. Blow Again – Use compressed air or a hand pump again to remove the loosened debris.
  4. Repeat the Process – For best results, follow the blow-brush-blow method at least three times to ensure the hole is completely clean.
  5. Final Inspection – Visually check that the hole is free from dust before applying ChemSet adhesive.

This process ensures a strong, reliable bond, reducing the risk of failure in your anchoring application.

Maximize Solar Efficiency with a Soap Foaming Tool and Water-fed Extendable Wash Brush Kit

Solar panels are a fantastic investment, helping to reduce energy bills and promote sustainability. However, to keep them operating at peak efficiency, regular cleaning is essential. Dust, dirt, bird droppings, and pollution can accumulate on the surface, blocking sunlight and reducing energy output. Fortunately, using a Soap Foaming Tool and a Water-fed Extendable Length Wash Brush Kit makes the job easier, safer, and more effective.

Why Clean Your Solar Panels?

Solar panels rely on direct sunlight to generate electricity. Any obstruction reduces their efficiency, sometimes by as much as 20–25%. Rain can help wash away some debris, but it often leaves behind dirt streaks and mineral deposits. Regular maintenance ensures you get the maximum return on your investment.

The Benefits of a Soap Foaming Tool

A Soap Foaming Tool allows for an even distribution of a gentle, panel-safe cleaning solution. It helps to:

  • Loosen tough grime and dirt without scrubbing aggressively.
  • Reduce water usage, as the foam clings to surfaces and lifts debris efficiently.
  • Ensure a streak-free clean, preventing water spots that could further block sunlight.

The Advantages of an Extendable Wash Brush Kit

Cleaning solar panels often requires reaching high and difficult spots. An Extendable Length Wash Brush Kit provides:

  • Safety and convenience, allowing you to clean from the ground without climbing onto the roof.
  • Soft bristles designed for delicate surfaces, preventing scratches.
  • Adjustable length, making it easy to reach panels on larger or higher rooftops.

Choose your size! Choose your kit!

Brush Options: 

Ultra soft fibres gently remove dust and dirt. PVC backing with soft feather tipped PVC bristles. High quality long lasting brush heads.  Ajax/US thread is suitable for water-fed poles. Can also be fitted to a standard Painters Pole.

  • 13″ Bi-level (fibre on 2-sides)
  • 15″ Bi-level (fibre on 2-sides)

Pole Lengths:

The BUSY BEE Water Fed Wash Pole is an anodized aluminium, telescopic water-fed wash pole. So its compact design allows for easier storage. Furthermore, the telescopic poles give you effective reach for cleaning your solar panels.  With comfortable EVA foam grips and 3 way adaptor(hi/low/off switch), your BUSY BEE Water Fed Wash Pole is easy to store and great to use.

  •  103cm pole extends out to 165cm
  • 176cm pole extends out to 300cm

Each Kit Contains our Soap Foaming Wash Tool

Our Soap Foaming Wash Tool gives you a great clean from its thick, rich foaming action.  It is designed to cover the surface with a thick layer of foam which breaks down the dirt and drips off without the need for harsh brushing.  Saves you TIME and WATER.  Reduces the need to keep replacing dirty bucket water.  Simply fill the heavy duty container, connect to your hose and foam away.  And with the quick release nozzle, rinsing is easy.

With 6 soap volume options and 2 different nozzles you can easily control your foam application.
