Heavy Duty Series Roof Rack Kits

Heavy Duty (HD) Series Roof Rack Kits are generally recommended for contractors or other industry professionals looking for a more rugged crossbar. This kit includes all of the necessary components to complete your roof rack.

The Roof Rack Kit is the base on which your vehicle can become more capable. Once your roof rack kit is installed, you can begin mounting accessories to carry just about anything to where you need to go (within weight limits).

This is a complete roof rack kit for your vehicle. It includes everything you need to get a roof rack on your vehicle. Some roof rack kits are available in multiple bar configurations (1 bar, 2 bar, 3 bar), if there are these options for your vehicle above, please ensure you select the appropriate amount of bars for your load.

Heavy Duty Crossbars

Heavy Duty Crossbars are made of aluminum, meaning they're light but strong. HD bars are thicker than their Vortex or Euro counterparts, meaning some recreational roof-rack accessories (kayak/SUP racks, bike racks, cargo boxes, etc.) may not fit without a conversion kit. However, Rhino-Rack offers a line of HD bar-specific accessories, largely geared towards carrying industry-related loads such as plywood, ladders, conduit, etc.

Incorporated 'C'-track along the length of the top of the bar provides additional mounting options and provided rubber strips cover the channel when not in use. The rubber strips provided with HD bars are slightly tougher than on Vortex bars, making them more durable and conducive to sliding loads such as ladders or pipe across the bars.
