The manufacturers do not typically provide the static weight limit of the roof racks. A lot of that reasoning is that the static load limit is typically higher than the cars roof capacity.

What I can tell you is that the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MAL74AR has a dynamic weight capacity of 165 lbs. The most common accessory that is used and needs the static weight capacity is a roof top tent.

The key number for using a rooftop tent like the Yakima SkyRise HD Tent for Roof Rack Crossbars # Y07436 (which has a 400 lb. capacity) is that the crossbars have a 165 lb. dynamic weight capacity.

While I cannot provide the static weight capacity, I hope this helps you determine what you need for what you are using the roof rack for.
