Each accessory is designed to improve the functionality, versatility or carrying capability of a compatible platform roof rack.

What are T-bolts used for?
T-bolts slide into the accessory channels of compatible platform roof racks, allowing accessories such as brackets, tie-down points and mounting hardware to be securely attached without drilling.
Why should I use tie-down points?
Tie-down points provide secure anchor locations for straps and ropes, helping keep camping equipment, luggage and work gear safely restrained during transport.
Can I mount a light bar to my roof rack?
Yes. Compatible light bar brackets allow LED light bars to be securely mounted to many platform roof rack systems. Always check that the bracket suits both your roof rack and light bar before installation.
Can I install an awning on my roof rack?
Most platform roof racks can support awning brackets that are included with your awning purchase. Certain roof racks such as the OCAM tubular platforms, among others, require an awning mounting blocks to provide a stable mount for an awning. Always ensure the awning weight and mounting hardware are suitable for your roof rack system.
How do I know which T-bolts or channel nuts will fit?
Measure the width and internal dimensions of your roof rack channel and compare them with the product specifications. The thread diameter, bolt length and head dimensions must all suit the intended mounting application.
Can I add extra tie-down points to my roof rack?
Many platform roof racks and crossbars allow additional tie-down points to be installed in their accessory channels. Only use compatible hardware, position the attachment points correctly and ensure the load is evenly distributed and securely restrained.
Do roof rack accessories affect the roof-load limit?
Yes. The weight of the roof rack, mounting system, accessories and cargo all contributes to the total roof load. The combined weight must remain within the lowest applicable limit specified by the vehicle, rack or mounting-system manufacturer.
Can roof racks be fitted to an aluminium canopy?
Roof racks and crossbars can be fitted to many aluminium canopies using compatible mounting brackets and appropriate reinforcement. Check the canopy manufacturer’s load capacity and fitting requirements before installation.
What is the difference between static and dynamic roof load?
Dynamic roof load is the weight the vehicle can carry on the roof while driving. Static load refers to weight supported while the vehicle is stationary. The dynamic rating is generally the more restrictive figure and should govern cargo carried during travel.
