Ellen: Hey everybody. I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com and we're going to be taking a quick look at the replacement wing nut for your Thule accessories. These can obviously get lost real easily whenever you take off any kind of accessory. Maybe you just missed one. It bounced off and went down the canyon and now you're down a wing nut. So we need to replace that out.
Fits a lot of different accessories. So let's talk about what this actually fits. It works with an M6 bolt. So that's going to be the type of bolt that this will fit onto and the accessories that it'll work with include the water sport carriers from Thule, like the Stacker, the Hang Two, the Hydro-Glide, the Hullavator and the Hull-a-Port, as well as the bike racks, the Sidearm and the Wheel-On. So if you have one of those and you're missing this little hand knob for that, this should be the one that you need.So again, just works with the M6 carriage bolt.
If you need that bolt as well, that is available. It's sold separately here at etrailer.com. You can find it as a related part on our product page. But yeah, you just use this little guy to secure down those accessories. Thread it on.
Take it off. Twist on for application. So pretty straightforward. Just gives you that little wing nut to get it in place. We do have a lot of other replacement parts for your Thule accessories here at etrailer.com.
So if you need anything else, check us out. Thanks for watching.

Used primarily with Thule roof-mounted carriers, this 3-wing knob fits over the threaded end of an M6 carriage bolt to help secure the rack to your load bars. Replacement hand knob twists on.Initially etrailer.com sent the wrong part, mistakenly sending the M8 instead of the M6. Once contacted they sent the proper part and didn't require me to return the original piece, which I appreciated. My only complaint was that the original shipping was very delayed due to low staffing, then there was the product error and as a result we were unable to use our kayak racks and were forced to rent kayaks because ours were sitting unused in the garage due to the delayed shipping and wrong products. So, these couple of inconveniences ended up being rather costly for us. That said, etrailer.com did do the right thing by us, it just took a while.
Perfect fit to help me secure three old Yule bike racks to the bars of my Yakima Rack and roll trailer.
I installed this on my Bike rack. Been using it every day. Very happy with the company and your product
Just what I needed after losing parts while having the Thule Stackers in storage. Excellent quality, excellent packaging and fast ship. Thanks so much!
etrailer is outstanding - needed a hard to find part which they found and then they kept me up to date on ordering status as they searched for (and located) another part that I needed. The customer service is fantastic - highly recommend!
Worked as expected. Perfect fit for the Thule surf rack
I thought your customer service was great. Before I ordered, your email about the possible parts my project would require, with pictures, descriptions, and parts numbers made ordering from etrailer very easy. I would highly recommend etrailer and their products.
just what I expected - that's for supplying these particular replacement parts.
Replacement hand knob worked perfectly and is holding up well!
This is an exact OM replacement part that was easy to find on etrailer.com. Although it is a part that needs to be replaced every few years it is hard to locate even on the Thule site. Price and shipping were good and the parts (I ordered extras) arrived as promised. I will definitely recommend this company and will return for rack or trailer parts.
John H - 08/19/2015I have an old Thule bike rack and the plastic hand knobs were starting to break off of the stay bolts. The knew knobs have a threaded steel insert that hold the bolt better. I had to buy new bolts that were threaded all the way to the cap. Much stronger than the original ptoduct. I used 80 mm M6×1.0 stainless steel bolts and a little thread locker to keep the hand knob from loosening on the bolt. Thule makes M6 and M8 hand knobs, so make sure to size the one you have. The hand knobs were easy to find at etrailer with a good description and fast shipping.
This is the first survey in a long time, in which I am eager to provide a review! This was such a small order for Thule parts needed for one of our kayak racks. I'm amazed that there was no minimum required. The parts came sooner than expected, and have allowed for us to have a rack system that is as good as new. Thanks to George for caring to do superb business for insignificant amounts. This will cause us to continue with etrailer.com in the future. You have been faithful in the small things, allowing for more substantial orders to come!
This worked perfect for my Thule roof mount bicycle rack. It was an exact replacement for the original.
Exactly what I needed, thank you.
I had somehow lost the bolt knob to my Thule Port A Hull kayak carrier. In searching the net, I found it on etrailer at much less price than any other site. Placing the order was easy and the part arrived before the next weekend, allowing me to use the carrier immediately. Great service, great price and I was assured that I had ordered the correct part by their helpful staff.
Some of my original Thule kayak knobs needed replaced - these were the perfect replacement! Low profile and the hole needed to go all the way through . . . not all of them do . . . but this is exactly what I needed. Fast service with up dates all the way! I will continue to shop here when I need more fixes!
Exactly what I was looking for - thank you
Fast and smooth
I needed a 3 wing nut for the hardware of an used cargo box. After visiting Lowes, Home Depot, Fastenal and others, I found it here in etrailer.com. Completing the order was easy. The order shipped very quickly after being placed and it arrived at the time I expected. etrailer.com provided tracking of where the item was during shipping. The product fits with the hardware and I'll definitely check this site for other gear.
You doing very well. Thanks
Product working great ! Nice website, buying process was easy, and shipping was quick ! So happy to find this website for my hardware needs !!! Extremely happy customer.
As usual, lighting fast order processing and shipping (and Great pricing). Always a pleasure to do business with.
Product was exactly what was orders and expected for replacement parts for my Thule Kayak rack.
Our original Thule ropes started breaking after about 15 years and we scrambled to find replacements. I'm so happy to have found these ropes. They are exactly what we needed - and I feel confident carrying our boats again. Note they come with a hook so no need to buy it separately.
