The Thule SquareBar Evo Roof Rack is built from galvanized steel, giving it the strength to handle up to 220 lbs of gear. The durable material keeps its shape under pressure and handles the weight of kayaks, tents, or camping gear without flex. The polymer coating adds grip for your cargo and helps prevent corrosion, so it’s ready for years of use in all kinds of weather.
These square crossbars are made for clamp-on accessories and carriers. That means you can securely attach kayak cradles, cargo boxes, bike racks, or other gear without worrying about movement or shifting on the road. The square shape gives accessories a solid surface to grip, adding stability when you’re hauling over long distances.
This kit includes everything needed to mount to raised rails—2 SquareBars and 4 Evo Raised Rail feet—so you can get a full setup without hunting down extra parts. It’s a straightforward install that locks into place on your roof rails for a custom fit and a solid base for any trip.
If you want extra peace of mind, the rack is ready for Thule’s One-Key System locks (sold separately). Locking the rack deters theft when your vehicle is parked at trailheads or overnight stops, keeping your setup safe while you’re away from it.
The black finish blends cleanly with most vehicles while resisting wear from sun and rain. At 47" long x 1-1/4" wide x 7/8" tall, each bar offers plenty of space for attaching multiple accessories at once. It’s a dependable rack that’s built to handle the load every time you head out.
Ratings & Reviews
Recently purchased a Raised Rail Thule Crossbar rack for my 2021 Subaru Forester. Price from etrailer was the best I found. Ordered the unit and it was delivered in four days. Came as advertised with all parts and complete instructions. I was able to successfully install the rack in about 2 hours with the tool provided with the kit. Very pleased with both the rack and the service etrailer provided.
Thule makes, with a few exceptions, excellent products. These aerobar feet are sturdy and simple to install. I use them on a Ford Escape with factory bars. Based on appearance and function, they should fit a lot of factory bars.
etrailer, over the years has been a consistently reliable company to do business with.
The items are obviously solid and very sturdy. etrailer has done a fantastic job providing customer support and updating shipping information the entire way. Only reason I did not give 5-stars is because Thule charges extra for the locking mechanism when at this price point I'm sure they could be included at no additional cost.
Worked flawlessly on my suv. Securely attached my sea kayak to my existing roof rails.
Ordering was simple and any questions I had were answered quickly. Items arrived on time as promised
Installation instructions were clear enough, but no text (Ikea-like). The video instructions on etrailer.com REALLY helped, showing the products as well as the surprisingly easy install. These feet feel solid (as a rock). We'll see how they do when we go camping next weekend! Thanks, etrailer staff and user-reviews!
The Thule SquareBar Evo Crossbars, Rapid Traverse Feet, and Fit Kit for the Roof Rack Feet were all promptly shipped and delivered within three days of the order. I had them all assembled and installed on my Ford Focus in less than an hour.
I really wish I had paid more money for more aerodynamic crossbars. These are extremely noisy and have made a noticeable difference to my gas mileage.
Excellent Quality and was Easy to install the locks (purchased separately)!
Swapping lock cylinders with the Thule system is easy. I have several Thule products including bike rake with built in lock, locking cross bars for our cars, cargo box, and bought cylinders and the Change Key to replace cylinders so I only need one key for all our Thule products. etrailer delivered them fast.
My order was processed very quickly and shipped in a timely manner. Everything arrived in great shape. I am pairing my Thule crossbar kit with a Thule Force XT cargo box to increase my capacity for hauling camping gear for a family of 4 in a 2019 Subaru Forester. The installation and product review videos on your website are very helpful.
The Thule Evo Rail feet with 60" wing bars are an excellent choice for folks who routinely transport bulky equipment on their vehicle rooftops. The instructions for mounting were straightforward and easy (especially with the installation video link). I had to extend the slots under each wingbar to make them fit my 2004 Dodge Durango roof rails, but besides that, I'm thoroughly happy with the product. Do order the key locks separately, as they do not come with the feet.
The product was delivered quickly and it was easy to set up. Thank you
This was the best price I found for the roof rack. My order arrived with a torn box which was UPS's fault so I was missing the end caps for the bars. When I called in a very friendly agent helped me and sent me the replacement caps free of charge and kept in contact with me until I received them. I will definitely buy from here again.
Installed these with the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars on a Mercedes GLS 450 SUV. It was a pretty quick install however, they impede the panoramic sunroof from opening. The locks that come with are plastic and they're okay, but I'd recommend getting the metal locks that you can order separately for more security. They do make a whistling sound when driving, but it's not loud enough for me to care. All in all, these are great.
Bought these for our Jeep Cherokee but they struggle to fit the wider rails on the vehicle. Have to lubricant these to slide on. Often the boot come off when removing them or just transporting them from storage to the vehicle. I wish the locked cover was made of something stronger since someone could easily break the plastic and use a Allen wrench to remove them rack and what’s mounted to it. Otherwise I’m happy with these. I like the size and torque limiting features of the included wrench
I really like the included tool used for tightening to the roof rails. I have a tendency to over tighten things and this tool prevents that from happening.
I needed to update the feet for my Thule areo blade cross bars. With ease I was able to swap the feet and transfer the locs to the new feet. The install was super easy. Finding the right product was a breez with a quick email to Etrailer customer service.

If you haven't been able to find it, we carry the replacement - part # TH49VW. One of the nice things about Thule is that almost every part is replaceable. :)
I’ve been searching for a set of crossbars for my 2021 Crosstrek. After looking at several different companys,, I decided to go with etrailer.com and get the Thule Wingbar Evo Crossbars and Evo Raised feet. Ordering was quick and shipping was even faster! Installed them in about an hour with no issues. I love the way they look, and the construction is solid. Shout out to the staff for doing a great job and for the great communication from placing the order, confirmation, updates and shipping the order. You will not be disappointed!
Perfect fit and the installation video made it extremely easy for me to follow
This is my first Thule product but not my last. etrailer was great to deal with the videos on how to install the product were so helpful. Between etrailer's help and all the reviews that other people had purchased and posted made this a very pleasant purchase and install. I highly recommend etrailer and the complete Thule WingBar system including the keylocks that worked perfectly. I typically don't write reviews but this one was worth doing.
Thule IS in my opinion the Best in Rack systems. There very well made and are pretty stout for my application with a roof basket. 52” X 80” Money well spent!! Thank You etrailer for The Best Service!
Thanks to etrailer.com, I found out these crossbar systems are just bags of interchangeable parts! So glad I didn’t toss my 2019 53” crossbars when they started whistling (Screeching!) at speeds above 45 mph. I had them removed from my ProMaster City van when I couldn’t stand it any more. Luckily i did some research and took them totally apart. The old raised rail feet were pretty trashed, but was able to clean the bars up and reuse the existing end caps and locks. The video instructions on etrailer.com were invaluable, and I was able to find the exact parts I needed. My 2019 crossbar system is like new at a fraction of the price id have paid for a new system!
I had my old feet from my Jeep Cherokee on my Jeep Compass and realize they were not secure. So now I have the right feet on my car,
Do you have a question about this Roof Rack?

The raised feet help to bring the crossbars up in height so that when we haul our canoe it does not hit the top of the car. We are still enjoying the car now that it is accessorized.
