Our ‘National’ cages are fully MSUK compliant for both Race and Rally (and just about all other disciplines as well).
A simpler and more cost-effective safety cage than our FIA-certificated or Multi-point cages but with our second-to-none quality and fit.
The drawbacks would be they are heavier than an FIA / MSUK certificated design (average 15 to 20 kgs) and don’t add as much bodyshell stiffness as there are fewer mounting points.
These are manufactured from high-quality CDS (Cold Drawn Seamless) tube with a minimum tensile strength of 510 Mpa (although T45 can be specified at extra cost).
The roll cage will be made using the minimum MSUK prescribed tube sizes – thicker gauge than we would use in a certificated design, and, so (unfortunately) heavier.
Usually, these are manufactured from CDS (Cold Drawn Seamless) tube – ours is a high tensile material with a minimum tensile strength of 510 Mpa – although T45 can be specified at extra cost.
These cages are eligible for all MSUK events.

Your roll cage arrives shrink-wrapped in durable black plastic. And by the way, it is very heavy!
To compete in any race or rally your roll cage will need to comply with either MSA or FIA regulations. (Effectively, the MSA is governed by the FIA so if a roll cage design complies with FIA regs, then it is also eligible for MSA events). There are some instances where the FIA allows certain design features where the MSA do not (and vice versa).
The certification process generally allows for a lighter roll cage because it is a bespoke design where the diameter and thickness of each tube is optimised to achieve the overall strength required by the FIA/MSA rules.
In order to compete in MSA/FIA events every vehicle, which has a certificated design of roll cage, should have a copy of a valid certificate to present at scrutineering. Custom Cages has certified the majority of popular roll cages. All other roll cages comply with MSA/FIA regulations and receive a Letter of Conformity for competitors to present to scrutineers.
To obtain a certificate for a self-fit roll cage, the installer must complete a Custom Cages weld test.
Custom Cages’ roll cage kits include a weld test sample. Once completed these are returned to the company for load testing. They are subjected to a physical test to assess the actual yield strength of the weld. This ensures that the self-fit roll cages achieve the highest standards of integrity.
Additional samples may be requested.
Certificates will only be issued on completion of a successful test.
Please be aware that there is a charge of £60.00 + VAT for all MS UK / FIA Certificates
