When you’re loading kayaks, canoes, or a cargo box, you want bars that don’t flex or feel flimsy. These CoreBars are made from strong steel that holds up under heavy use, with a weight capacity of 220 lbs. The black vinyl coating protects the bars from corrosion so they keep looking good even after years of hauling gear to the water or campsite.
Driving long distances with gear on the roof can mean extra noise, but the aero-style design of these crossbars helps reduce that. The smooth, tapered profile cuts through airflow to limit drag and whistling at highway speeds. It makes for a quieter ride whether you’re headed across town or across the state.
With 60" of usable bar space, you don’t have to choose between bringing your kayak or your cargo box—you can take both. The full-length design works with most clamp-on accessories, giving you room to mount multiple carriers side by side. It’s a flexible setup that adapts easily to whatever adventure you’re planning next.
If your roof doesn’t have rails, this system still gives you a solid way to mount gear. The included BaseLine towers and custom fit kit create a secure connection on naked roofs without drilling or damage. It’s a straightforward installation that gives you confidence every time you load up your roof rack.
You can upgrade this rack with Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores, sold separately, to help deter theft of the rack itself. It’s an easy add-on that keeps your setup safer when parked overnight or at the trailhead.
