Product Information

Full details

The VEVOR Roof Rack Cargo Basket is designed for adventurers and travelers needing extra storage space on their vehicle. Its primary benefit is significantly increasing cargo capacity for gear, luggage, and equipment, freeing up interior space. A key consideration is that it requires a vehicle with existing crossbars for installation. This 51x36x5 inch basket is constructed from heavy-duty steel, featuring a powder-painted and galvanized finish for rust resistance, and includes a 5" high fence to secure items. It also comes with a 15 Cu Ft IPX4 water-resistant cargo bag to protect contents.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity of the cargo basket?

The VEVOR roof rack cargo basket can support a maximum of 200 lbs (90.7 kg).

Do I need existing roof rack crossbars to install this basket?

Yes, this cargo basket requires existing roof rack crossbars on your vehicle for installation using the provided U-bolts.

Is the cargo bag completely waterproof?

The cargo bag has an IPX4 water resistance rating, meaning it is protected against splashes of water. It is not designed for submersion.

What are the dimensions of the cargo basket?

The product size of the cargo basket is 51 inches long x 36 inches wide x 5 inches high.

What material is the basket made of?

The basket is constructed from Q195 heavy-duty steel.

How is the basket protected against rust?

The steel is treated with both powder painting and galvanizing processes to enhance its resistance to rust and corrosion.

Can I attach items like bike racks or kayak carriers to this basket?

While the basket provides a platform, direct attachment of specialized carriers might depend on the design of those carriers and how they interface with the basket's structure. It is primarily designed for direct cargo loading.

Troubleshooting

Basket is rattling during transit.

Ensure all U-bolts and mounting hardware are tightened securely. Check if any cargo is loose and shifting within the basket.

U-bolts do not fit crossbars.

Verify your vehicle's crossbar dimensions. The U-bolts are designed for specific maximum widths and diameters. If your crossbars exceed these, alternative mounting solutions may be needed.

Cargo bag zipper is difficult to close.

Ensure the bag is not overstuffed. Gently work the zipper back and forth, and clean any debris from the zipper teeth.

Rust spots appearing on the basket.

Clean the affected area with a mild cleaner and water. For minor spots, a rust remover designed for painted metal may be used. Ensure the basket is dried thoroughly after cleaning to prevent further rust.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Ensure your vehicle is equipped with roof rack crossbars.
Position the cargo basket onto the crossbars.
Secure the basket using the four included U-bolts. For square crossbars, ensure they are up to 4.65" wide x 1.375" thick. For round bars, they should be up to 1.375" in diameter.
Tighten the U-bolt hardware securely.
Load your cargo, distributing weight evenly.
Use the provided cargo bag for added protection and to secure smaller items.

Compatibility:

Requires compatible square or round crossbars on your vehicle's roof rack system.
U-bolts fit square crossbars up to 4.65" (118mm) wide x 1.375" (35mm) thick.
U-bolts fit round crossbars up to 1.375" (35mm) in diameter.

Care:

Regularly check that all mounting hardware is tight and secure.
Clean the steel basket with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
The galvanized and powder-coated finish offers rust resistance, but prolonged exposure to harsh elements without cleaning may eventually lead to corrosion. Wipe dry after cleaning.
Clean the cargo bag with mild soap and water; allow it to air dry completely before storing.
