Will M8 T-Bolts Fit a Thule AeroBlade Crossbar

Published 08/16/2018

Question:

Will this fit into an eye bolt tie down that normally will accept a M8-1.25 hex bolt? What’s the overall length of the part? Will these slide into the track if a Thule Aeroblade crossbar?

The Replacement M8 T-Bolts for Rola 59850 are 1.25" long. They are designed to be used with the Eye Bolt Tie-Downs and the Load Stops on a Rola Haul-Your-Might Truck Bed Ladder Rack. The t-bolts used on most roof racks are an M6, not an M8 like the ones on ladder racks so I do not believe they will work together.

However, the Eyebolts part # S604 and Load Stops part # S602 are designed for roof rack track mounts so they should work with your AeroBlade crossbars though they have not been tested.
