Cab Racks

Heavy-Duty Headache Racks for Semi Trucks & Flatbeds

A headache rack, also known as a cab rack, is one of the most important add-ons for flatbed trucks and semis. Mounted right behind the cab, it acts as a strong barrier between you and your load. If cargo shifts while you’re on the road, the headache rack takes the hit, not your cab or your safety.

Made from heavy-duty materials, these racks are built to last and are easy to mount. Whether you call it a cab rack or a semi truck headache rack, it’s the same must-have shield that keeps your cab safe, your gear organized, and your truck looking sharp.

Why Do Drivers Rely on Mytee Headache Racks?

1. Cab Protection in Critical Situations

Headache racks for trucks act as a strong safety barrier, stopping shifting cargo from crashing into your cab during sudden stops. That extra protection can truly save lives.

2. High-Grade Aluminum &  Steel Construction

Aluminum racks are lightweight, so they won’t weigh down your truck, and they resist rust and corrosion.

Steel racks deliver maximum strength and toughness, making them the go-to choice for extreme-duty hauling.

3. Built-In Storage Options 

More than safety, a headache rack for a semi truck adds convenience with toolboxes, chain hangers, and lighting keeping straps, binders, and gear neatly organized and within easy reach.

4. Easy Installation & Compatibility 

Designed to fit most flatbeds and semis, Mytee heavy duty headache racks come with pre-drilled holes and hardware for quick setup, minimizing downtime and maximizing road time.
