These 50" square crossbars are built from hardened steel, giving them the strength to handle serious weight. With a 220-lb capacity, the Inno Square Bar Roof Rack holds up under kayaks, cargo boxes, camping gear, or heavy equipment without bending or flexing. The steel is coated with an elastomeric finish that fights off corrosion, so the rack stays solid and reliable through years of rain and sun.
When you’ve got valuable gear strapped up top, security matters. The included lockable leg covers deter theft of the rack system itself, giving you peace of mind when you park for a trail stop or overnight stay. You can leave your setup on the vehicle knowing it takes more than a simple twist of a wrench to walk away with your bars.
This rack mounts directly to fixed points on your roof for a clean, stable setup. The included components—2 square crossbars, 4 square bar feet, and a custom fit kit—work together as one complete system. Once installed, the bars stay solidly in place without shifting or rattling, ready to carry whatever you load on top.
If you’ve got clamp-on carriers for bikes, kayaks, skis, or cargo boxes, they’ll fit these bars with no trouble. The square bar profile is designed for accessories that wrap around the bar rather than mounting into channels. You don’t need new attachments—just clamp them on and go.

Ratings & Reviews
I had to wait for over a month after I ordered my roof rack because it was out of stock. However, once they had my item in stock, it took only a couple of days to be delivered. I’ve wanted a roof rack and kayak hookup for years, but I’ve been turned away because of the ridiculous prices of Yakima and Thule. But I am thankful that I found this website and how there is an affordable alternative when it comes to purchasing roof racks.
I'm very happy with the purchase. I wasn't sure about spending this much money on something that might not work well. After using it, I'd gladly purchase again for a different car.
Fit well on my car, was very solid and secure. Did not do any damage to the paint on my roof.
Installation is pretty easy - be sure to watch the video and follow the instructions for measurements to set bases to. I could see it being a nightmare to install without those measurements.
The kit also comes with a tightening handle that has a built in torque setting. It's not shown in the video, but a good idea to use so you're sure everything is tightened properly.
Fuel economy suffers about 10-15% with the racks on - even empty. I take them off when I don't need them. I marked the bottom surface of the bars with a paint marker so I know where to put the bases when I put them back on. I also painted on the measurements from the door post so it's easier to reinstall.
Also, an item was missing from the box. etrailer customer service was fantastic about getting me a replacement part.
I'm loving the roof rack , and Ashley from customer service was really helpful. Thanks e trailer. The reviews didn't lie.
So far so good! Was fairly easy to install. I will say the straps that came with it are not quite long enough for my kayak’s. Not an issue for me though. Overall I am definitely satisfied and would recommend for anyone that needs a rack for kayaks.
Got it for a 2006 Toyota Prius. Overall a great purchase. It was sturdy and never had any major issues. I would 100% recommend getting the locks.
I almost gave it 4 stars for one reason. If you put it on as the instructions tell you to, it whistles really loud. It just takes a bunch of small iterations and quick drives down the street to find out if it stopped making noise. Other than that, great purchase.
Great product. Easy to install. This is one of three parts needed for a complete roof rack installation. Here is a photo of the finished installation on my 2015 Acura TLX sedan.
Great product and GREAT service. These feet fit my INNO B117 square bars and base brackets for a perfect fit on my Mazda 5 wagon. Took about 40 minutes to install the whole rig. Jonathan at etrailer was a huge help, and got these to me in two days.
My order showed up quicker than expected and installed without too much hassle by myself. My only issue is that I expected the adapter parts to level out the mounting feet so that the two cross bars are in line. But nothing like that occurred so the bars sit at an able to each other. Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems to still work, just not what I expected.
We needed a set of crossbars for our vehicle and read many reviews of other brands before finding this product. We like the bars and the installation of them. We needed something trustworthy to accomodate our rooftop tent and this fit our needs. We experienced excellent customer service!
Really solid bars and end caps, not much more to say!
Great cross bars to replace the rusty original cross bars this vintage Thule rack. Classic cars require these old style racks and many are 30+ years old and great to be able to give new life to an old rack system.
I followed directions and the rack went on without a hitch. The measuring tape provided was a bit confusing but my tape measure did just fine. It pays to watch for any movement of the stays as you tighten them. It fit perfectly. I was impressed with the quality of the unit. The torque wrench provided was a nice bonus. I attached a boat rack for my rowing shell and I’m confident it will be safe all the way to the water.
Once again etrailer.com delivers. Finding a crossbar solution for my 2021 Lexus GX 460 was far more challenging than expected until I visited the site and found exactly what I needed. The fit kit worked great and the quality of the feet and crossbars on par or better than other brands (who dropped the ball on having a product available for this vehicle). The rack is on, secure and now carrying my Thule cargo box. Very happy.
Just installed the etrailer inno square load bars on my 4Runner. I also purchased the Round/square Crossbar Fit Kit .
Looks great and mounted easily to my Prinsu Rack.
Installation is easy. Just follow directions. Front bar parts are different than rear bar parts so you need to look at part numbers and use in correct location. Rack is only rated for 100 pounds but looks and feels much stronger than rating. As noted square bars do create lot of wind noise when driving. Purchase this product to carry my Canoe and it does that at almost $200 less than other rack systems on market. For me the square bars are better fit with ratchet straps to hold Canoe down. Hard to find ratchet strap with hook to fit areo bars.
Dislike. No way to level square bars. With car on level ground high point to high point on bars is level. But each bar is off by 1/8" front to back. Wish they were round bars.
The roof racks have been great. I've used them with j-hooks and rear loading slider type pads. They are easy to install/remove. In the picture is my 17ft long sea kayak that stayed secure and safe on a 6 hour journey in high winds using the racks.
Ordered a full (naked) roof rack package with snowboard/ski attachment. Items arrived as described. Set-up was simple and flawless. Instructions are fairly clear & simple. A paper tape measure is included. No issues with fitment.Purchased the fairing to reduce wind noise and it works perfect! No excessive wind noise whatsoever -- can open sunroof comfortably if I wanted to. Have not yet put my snowboards inthe attachment yet, but do not foresee any issues. Roof rack is on a 2015 Infiniti Q40 (G37 sedan 2009-2015).
For a roof with no mounts, this is a perfect choice!
The fitment selected for me by etrailer.com for my 2012 Ford Escape was perfect. The Inno Rack System is easy to install (made easier by the use of etrailer.com's instruction video links).
I chose the square bar fitment because I prefer the look over the various "aerodynamic designs", while I prefer the look over others, a wind fairing will prove to eliminate the very hint of sound that does emanate into the cabin.
If you are looking for a Clamp mounted system that requires zero modification/easily removabl this is the system for you.
Great system. Got it installed the night before a road trip, and once you get the hang of if, assembly is easy and intuitive. This system is rock solid and well done.
Things I wish I knew that would have helped in my decision:
1) After you install the footbeds, the rails and tower easily remove as one unit in the future, and they include little covers to put over the feet. No more long debates about wind noise. If you find them modify or don’t like the look, take it off in five minutes. Even the Allen wrench is stored neatly in the rack.
2) I had been a long time Yakima user, so that’s where I started with my GX rack. Having searched far and wide for landing pads, I was all set. Step one of the Yakima system: remove factory rails. Having just spent good money on this truck, I’m not taking off factory rails and adding silicone around the holes to create new mounting points. Innos fits nicely to the factory rails.
If you're a Lexus GX460 owner, think the OEM cross bars are wimpy, and don't want to shell out $500-$600 for "aero" style bars, this is for you.
I chose the Inno INXP base over the INTR base because I thought it looked sleeker, and I wanted as much clearance over the shark fin antenna as I could (although both bases clear the antenna, the INXP is taller). The product description is slightly different for the two bases, but both of them are able to slide along the factory flush rails. Choosing between the two is a matter of taste.
A couple of hints for installation:
-I didn't receive an English copy of the installation instructions for the base, but was able to figure it out anyway. You could easily find them online.
-The screws that come with the base aren't needed, use the longer ones that come with the fit kit.
-Loosely attach the fit hooks, clip the base on top, slide the rail through, THEN tighten the screws.
-When putting the fit hooks on the rails before putting the base on top, make sure the screws are backed out as much as physically possible without disconnecting. Even still there is very little play when sliding the rails through before tightening everything down. It would be nice if the screws were even 1/8" longer, but it would only make installation easier. Once everything is tightened down it's as solid as can be.
Overall I'm very happy. I like the more rugged look of the square bars, and shaking them moves the whole vehicle and they don't budge.
The Inno square bar roof rack is a game changer for my RTT which was previously mounted on the factory cross bars (Gx460) which had way too much flex and chatter. It rides super solid now!
I had informed your staff about how the rack did not fit my car as advertised on your website but never received an answer.
Relatively easy to install- first set/bar was easy, second one was a little fussier for some reason. Used these to reuse my older style Thule rectangular bars which worked great. Installed on Mazda CX-5 with corresponding brackets for the factory roof rails.
Works perfect on my 2022 Lexus GX460 with roof rails. I used with the INTR152 feet to attach some Thule square bars. No problem with old Thule roof boxes or Thule Motion boxes. Clears the rear fin antenna no problem
