the part fit like a glove on the threaded fastener for the kayak rack i found in a dumpster and refurbished. one of the hand knobs was so rusted on the fastener that i could not get it off.

Good quality. The customer service was excellent. I initially ordered the wrong part. My mistake was resolved very quickly. Within three or four days I had the correct part. Thank you

Not sure how I lost the knob, but glad I was able to get another, even
if it seems, like most items these days, higher than usual value.
It was a little tricky finding the correct (M8) size online, but worked out.
I have used this site successfully and it's been and remains the place to go very often, if not always really. Knob needed for a pretty old Thule (kayak) transport mount

We bought a used Thule rack for our kayaks and lost one of these early on. After a bit of research we found etrailer and ordered replacement (and one extra!). Etrailer shipped the parts promptly and at a great price. Glad I found them - so much cheaper than the alternatives.

So glad etrailer carries these, i needed to replace a couple of the knobs from my old thule roof rack, and i couldnt find these knobs anywhere else. They work great for securely transporting my canoe. Shipping was a little delayed, but etrailer reached out to me quickly to let me know the expected date & make sure that that was ok.

The part is just a nut with a plastic knob. Not much to say there. But the SERVICE from etrailer is AMAZING! Seriously - it feels like either I am the only customer or they have 1000 people managing the site. Super-friendly. helpful, and PERSISTENT with my weirdo request to make all my accessories 'track' compatible. I think I will buy something else right now!

I bought some replacement hardware for my Thule rack system. Part of the order was backordered, but they stayed on top of it and the remaining parts came just two weeks later. Fast and speedy delivery and great tracking app, too!

Product was wrong size for Thule 554 surf racks and did not fit. Bolt diameter on Thule 554 surf rack was smaller than Item 753-0776. It was advertised to fit all outdoor water sports rack equipment.

I confirmed with Thule that the correct replacement wing nut for your Hang Two Surf Carrier 554 is part # 753-0783.

This is a nice product but its the wrong size. There seems to be four different kinds of these. I just wish they would explain exactly the thread type and bolt size this fits, the metric measurement. Just stating it holds kayak rack is not correct because thats what I bought it for. It is too big for my Thule kayak rack. I had to order two other sizes to make sure I get the right one.
If you are looking for one of these just order all of them so you get the right one.

the fact that i can source these roof rack parts is great. the canoe carriers have been discontinued, and their new "universal" parts seem to be not what i am looking for. i am quite happy that i can repair or replace (and that i can even find) what i need in one spot. nice that the shipping is tracked. always happy with etrailer service.

This item was an identical replacement for the cracked knobs that came with a non-branded rooftop cargo carrier that was purchased used, and the original owner said he bought it new in Europe. I had trouble finding replacements, but once I determined they used 8mm threads, e-trailer's Thule knob looked right, and it was.

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!

This review is about the service provided by etrailer. Shipping across borders is often challenging but etrailer's staff was checking frequently to assure the the order reached me as quickly as possible. This is NOT the norm with most companies and is VERY appreciated.

These are high quality replacements for worn out or broken Thule canoe carrier stops. I use them often, year round, and they eventually require swapping out. These are solid replacements.

Ill tell you what I think. Thule could do a better job of making these knobs. Ive been complaining to them for decades that the plastic part cracks when you tighten it just a little more than lightly tight. They should be made of Solid aluminum !! The steel nut inside is steel. But the outer functioning 3 wing knob is plastic and it just doesnt hold up.

YEah well I make sure I only tighten it very very lightly.So its holding up so far. Weather also plays a part in plastic fatigue

There is not much to be said about hand knob for an older canoe rack. They are identical to my 20 year old ones. What should be appreciated is that etrailer had the parts for an older canoe gunwale support.

They save hours as the hardware that came with the rack required tools this allows a quicker set up

Perfect replacement for my 30-year-old, cracked Thule knobs. Be careful to order the correct size. The nuts in these knobs are M8. Another model knob has smaller, M6 nuts.

They informed me that the LockNLoad's use M8 bolts and the Rack and Roll uses M10 bolts. Instead you can use the Replacement M8 T-Bolt # 853-0782 and either the Zinc Plated Hex Flange Nut - M8 # 185917 or the Replacement 3-Wing, High M8 Hand Knob # 753-0776 for a nut. Any...

view full answer... - T-bolt and Wing Knob Fit With Thule AeroBlade ChannelI tried it to make sure, and the t-bolt # 853-0782 will fit inside the groove on the top of the Thule AeroBlade bars. The knob # 753-0776 will also fit on the bolt. I have attached some pictures of the bolt in the groove with the knob on the bolt for you to see how they fit together. The bolt won't come out of the groove, but it doesn't fit tightly inside the channel.

- Replacement Wing Nut for Staionary Roof Kayak CradlesIf you have a Thule watersport carrier like the Thule DockGlide Kayak Carrier # TH896 and you are looking for replacement wingnut for the clamp part, then the Thule M6 knob # 753-0783 is a fit. If your saddles have a larger M8 bolt then the replacement part # 753-0776 is the one for you. If you can tell me what kayak saddles you have exactly, I help you get the correct wing nuts if they're available.
view full answer... - Original Thule Portage Replacement PartsThe Thule Portage has gone through several redesigns, the most recent being part # TH819. This kit is compatible with all of Thule's old style Square bars and their newer Aero bars. I'd recommend getting these if you don't already have a kit, as they will be the easiest way to add gunwale/portage load stops to your setup. If you have them already, or just want to build the older style, I've included all of the replacement parts below that complete the assembly of the older style Portage....
view full answer... - Track Nut Compatible with Lance Camper Roof RailsGreat question! I believe that TopLine is the OEM manufacturer for Lance's roof rails. Although there is no official industry standard size for slots on roof rails, most of them are very similar. It just makes sense to design the racks to be compatible with multiple crossbars and accessories. The Thule Track Nut, # 853-5417, that you mentioned is designed to work with Thule's M6 x 17 mm Bolt, # 924-0617-15, and washer, # 951061254. You'll also need a 4mm Hex Key like # 853-2430-02 to...
view full answer... - Replacement Hand Knob for etrailer J-Style Kayak CarrierI went out and tried a few knobs and found one that'll work but it's not part # 753-0783 like you were told. It's quite a bit too small Instead use part # 753-0776. It threads right on to the bolts of the etrailer kayak carrier, part # e98878.
view full answer... - Can Yakima Kayak Carriers be Mounted to Thule AeroBlade T-SlotsOn the Thule AeroBlade crossbars the upper part of the T-slot is 1/2 inch wide and the lower part is 3/4 inches wide. T-bolt # 853-0782 could work. The threaded part is 2 inches long and has a diameter of 8 millimeters. 3-wing knob # 753-0776 is an M8 and is a potential candidate for this use. But none of these parts have been tested together so I cannot say how well the Thule parts will work with the Yakima parts so it is an -at-your-own-risk type of situation.

We have also found the Thule Replacement 3-Wing, High M8 Hand Knob # 753-0776 to fit, but the attachment plates are not currently available as a replacement part, unfortunately. If worse comes to worse and one is lost or broken out on the road, these could be constructed out of easily found materials at a local hardware store though.

You'll want the # 753-0776 which I was able to confirm will work perfectly as a replacement for your etrailer Kayak Carrier # e98878.
