Question:

Hi I have a set of Whispbar flush bars, and was wondering if the slot for t-bolts the interior where the head of the bolt actually sits is the same width as other brands. Would i be able to attach accessories from other brands using their own t-bolts, or would my only option be to use a mount that wraps around the bar?

Expert Reply:

The T-Slots in your Whispbar crossbars will be the same size as other manufacturers, so you will be able to utilize top channel mounted accessories like the Inno Locker Watersport Carrier - Locking - Channel Mount - 1 Boat or 2 Boards # INXA445 for example.

The Whispbar crossbars are very wide and actually make the wrap around applications far more difficult to find compatible accessories.
