Universal Car Roof Racks Pod Aluminium Cross Bars Upgraded Holder

Raised roof rails are useful right up to the moment you need to carry something. The rails run front to back; almost every load wants to sit across the car. These aluminium cross bars bridge that gap, clamping onto raised rails to give two solid load points and a channel to bolt accessories into.

Aircraft-grade alloy, shaped like a wing

The bars are aircraft-grade aluminium alloy. The reason for the alloy is strength without the weight of steel, and weight matters more here than almost anywhere else on a vehicle because every kilogram sits above the centre of gravity. Net weight is listed at 3.2 kg. The profile is elliptical rather than square, so air divides over and under the bar instead of piling up against a flat face — that shape is what keeps highway drone down and stops the rack quietly undoing your fuel figures. Aluminium also does not rust.

A T-slot channel that takes accessories

Each bar carries an engineered T-slot channel along its length. Accessory feet slide into the slot and lock down rather than clamping around the outside of the bar, which spreads the fixing load along the channel instead of pinching it at a single point, and keeps the hardware tucked inside the profile where it is out of the airflow. Awning brackets, track holders, baskets and bike carriers all mount this way. A locking system with two independent keys is included, so the bars stay with the car in a carpark.
