Trunk arches on car railings
Content
Arcs for rails on a smooth roof are supplied with fasteners for mounting on the doorway of the machine. There are universal mounts that you can easily install yourself.
Car roof rack bars are a metal or plastic pipe structure used to secure cargo.
How arcs are used for car roof rails
Car roof rack bars are used for installation and transportation of:
- open cargo containers for transportation of bulky items;
- sports equipment - bicycles, ski equipment, fishing equipment that do not fit in the luggage compartment;
- closed aerodynamic boxes with things needed during the trip;
- lighting devices;
- crossbeams for securing building materials or household appliances during transportation.
Reliable mechanical or magnetic fasteners ensure safe transport of cargo on the roof rack.
What are the arcs
Car roof racks are classified according to various criteria:
- production material - metal and composite;
- design features - model and universal;
- installation method - longitudinal and transverse;
- profile shape - aerodynamic and rectangular;
- the gap between the roof and rails - supporting or integrated.
Car roof rack bars also differ in pipe diameter, length, design, and color.
Dimensional characteristics are limited by the dimensions of the machine:
- for longitudinal pipes, the length cannot be more than 1000-1800 mm;
- for transverse - from 1200 to 1300 mm.
But the main characteristic that you need to pay attention to is the cross section of the pipes, since the load capacity and noise level depend on it. If the equipment is produced for a specific brand of machine, it provides the necessary safety parameters.
How to choose crossbars: rating of the best offers
When buying car roof racks, you need to be guided by several criteria:
- brand and size of the machine;
- body type;
- installation method;
- fastener strength;
- aerodynamic properties.
When comparing aerodynamic crossbars, the following models fall into the list of the best:
- Thule WingBar Edge - oval bars for minimal noise and installation time in minutes;
- ATERA Signo RT - characterized by quick fixation and good sound insulation;
- MONTBLANC ReadyFit 20Al - luggage racks do not require preliminary adjustment;
- WHISPBAR - for installation it is enough to tighten only 4 bolts;
- Bgznk Zubr-120 is a reliable design that wins in terms of price-quality ratio.
With proper use of the arc will help solve many problems with the transportation of things.
