When you’re loading up for an adventure, you want roof bars that can handle the weight without flexing or rusting out. These round crossbars are built from galvanized steel for strength and durability, with a black vinyl coating that helps resist corrosion. Each bar measures 48" long x 1-1/8" in diameter and together they support up to 165 lbs—so whether it’s kayaks, canoes, or a cargo box, you can haul it securely and reliably.
If you’ve already got attachments like kayak cradles, bike racks, or a rooftop box that clamp around traditional round bars, these are good to go. The RoundBar design keeps things simple and compatible with a wide range of accessories, so you can switch from hauling paddling gear in summer to carrying touring cargo boxes for road trips without swapping bars.
Installing on a vehicle without factory rails can be tricky, but the included BaseLine towers, adapters, and custom fit kit make it straightforward. The setup is designed specifically for a naked roof, keeping the rack secure without damaging paint or trim. Once installed, it gives you a solid foundation for all your rooftop hauling needs.
When you’re parked at the trailhead or campsite, it’s nice to know your setup can be locked down. The rack is compatible with Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately) that deter theft of the rack itself. It’s an easy upgrade that adds peace of mind when your vehicle is loaded up and unattended.
From cross-country drives to weekend escapes, this system is built to hold up under real-world conditions. The steel construction and vinyl coating stand up to weather and wear, while Yakima backs it with a limited lifetime warranty so you can keep using the same dependable setup trip after trip.

I’ve lost a second cover. Some shifting of the rack but I use it weekly.
