Why Choose the Tembo Tusk Tilt Slide?
The Tembo Tusk Tilt Slide is the only fridge slide on the market with a fully integrated tilt function — no adapter, no extra parts, no compromises. Where other slides force you to pull the fridge all the way out or bolt on a separate tilt kit, the Tilt Slide gives you 17 to 22 degrees of tilt built directly into the slide mechanism. That means faster access to your fridge contents, less strain on your back, and a cleaner installation in your vehicle. Built from aluminum and weighing roughly 35 pounds, it fits 35 to 52 liter fridges and is designed to bolt in with a simple, sturdy setup. Add the optional Bamboo Cutting Board for a functional prep surface when the slide is flat. This is an original Tembo Tusk design, made in the USA, with a patent pending.

The Built-In Tilt Advantage
Most overlanders who want tilt functionality have to buy a flat slide and then add a separate tilt adapter on top of it. That adds cost, weight, complexity, and height to the installation. The Tembo Tusk Tilt Slide eliminates all of that by engineering the tilt directly into the slide. The result is a lower-profile, lighter, and more reliable system that tilts when you need it and lies flat when you do not.
With the fridge pan sitting just two inches above the bolt-down deck, you save valuable vertical space inside your vehicle. The optional Bamboo Cutting Board bolts on and gives you a prep surface when the slide is in the flat position — turning the top of your fridge slide into a functional workspace. Pair it with Tembo Tusk accessories like fridge tie-down straps to secure your setup.
