FAQs

Are these bars compatible with all TentBox models?

The SURT-088 is specifically developed for TentBox applications; however, always check your specific TentBox model manual for weight and mounting requirements.

Do I need special tools to install these?

Because the bars come pre-assembled, you generally only need the standard tools provided in the kit to secure the bars to your vehicle's roof rails.

Can I leave these on my car year-round?

Yes, they are constructed from high-grade, durable aluminium suitable for outdoor conditions, though cleaning them occasionally will prolong their finish.

How do I know if they fit my specific car?

Ensure your vehicle is equipped with compatible roof rails and that your roof's dynamic load capacity matches the weight of your tent plus the bars.

What is the primary material used?

The SURT-088 utilizes a reinforced aluminium profile, chosen for its high strength-to-weight ratio.

Troubleshooting

Excessive wind noise at highway speeds

Verify that the bars are correctly centered and all covers are snapped firmly into place to improve aerodynamic flow.

Bars feel loose after installation

Check all mounting bolts and connections; ensure the roof mount brackets are properly aligned with the vehicle attachment points.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the SURT-088 is streamlined thanks to the pre-assembled nature of the product. Begin by cleaning your vehicle's existing roof mounting points to ensure a flush, secure connection. Place the bars across the roof, ensuring they are equidistant from each other to distribute the weight of the tent evenly. Tighten all bolts firmly but do not over-torque, as this may damage the roof mounting points. Regularly inspect the bolts for tightness after long drives or heavy vibrations. When not in use, wipe the aluminium bars with a soft, damp cloth and ensure they are dry to prevent oxidation from road salts or moisture.
