The Rhino Rack SX028 are crossbars designed to be fitted to a vehicle's roof rails, enabling the transportation of various loads. The crossbars provide a sturdy and secure platform for carrying items such as luggage, kayaks, bikes, and other outdoor gear.

The SX028 crossbars are made from high-strength steel, providing a maximum load capacity of 50kg/110lbs when evenly distributed over all crossbars. They are also aerodynamically designed to minimize wind resistance and noise during travel.

The crossbars are easy to install and remove, and come with all necessary fittings and instructions. They are compatible with a wide range of vehicles, and can be customized to fit specific roof rail configurations.

WARNING!

Maximum load capacity: 50/100kg - 110/220lbs evenly distributed over all crossbars. Please refer to your vehicle
manufacturers handbook for maximum roof load capacity, always use the lower of the two gures. Load gures
shown reect the use of two bars.
Recommendations:
It is essential that all bolt connections be checked after driving a short distance when you rst install your crossbars.
Bolt connections should be checked and lubricated at regular intervals (probably once a week is enough, depending
on road conditions, usage, loads and distances travelled). You should also check the crossbars each time they are
retted. Make sure to fasten your load securely. Please ensure that all loads are evenly distributed and that the centre
of gravity is kept as low as possible. Crossbars must be removed when putting vehicle through an automatic car
wash. Use only non-stretch fastening ropes or straps.
Caution: The handling characteristics of the vehicle changes when you transport a load on the roof. For safety rea-
sons we recommend you exercise extreme care when transporting wind-resistant loads. Special consideration must
be taken into account when cornering and braking.
Off-road Load Rating:
When crossbars are to be used in off-road conditions, please build a safety factor of 1.5 into this load limit for off-road
use, two crossbars = 33/66kg - 73/145lbs. Although the crossbars are tested and approved to AS1235-2000, off-road
conditions can be much more rigorous. However, increasing the number of crossbars does not increase the vehicles
maximum permissible roof loading.
Note for Dealers and Fitters:
It is your responsibility to ensure instructions are given to the end user or client.
