• Heavy-duty capacity: Aircraft-grade aluminum crossbars and reinforced brackets support up to 220 lbs (100 kg) of distributed roof load for larger cargo.
• Tie-down loops: Each of the four brackets includes a tie-down loop to help secure irregular or soft cargo quickly and reliably.

Who It's For

This rack is aimed at Hyundai Santa Cruz owners who want a neat, vehicle-specific roof solution that looks like it belongs on the truck and handles serious loads such as luggage, ladder or kayak systems.
