This replacement Hex Key set includes four 5/16" hex keys for Yakima roof-mounted bike and boat carriers. Hex keys attach to bolts and help secure the carrier to your roof-rack crossbars.I like these short ones because you can still get a good torque on them but they don't get in the way like the longer ones that came with my bike mounts so I can get them a little closer to the towers plus I'd lost one and had been using a washer and a nut and that didn't work with a damn you can't really tighten that down without being worried about overtime because you're using a wrench.
I have an "experienced" Yakima rack system with an original basket case, lockjaw rack and tandem rack...more experienced than the average Yakima employee these days and while Yakima tried to help their website is pretty crummy and the customer service staff don't recognize the older products. Etrailer on the other hand has a great website, I found all the little things I needed to refurbish my components and the shipping is super-fast and very reasonable. I ordered bolts, hex keys and components for my railgrab towers and my system is good as new.
Can't recommend them highly enough.
These were the perfect parts. Best deal on the internet and they came very quickly. E trailer will be my first stop for all my recreational accsesories.

Still work great! I check them every couple of months and they are always tight!
Well these are just exotic wingnuts for Yakima rack accessories, but it's really great that someplace like etrailer is around with this kind of small part in the inventory.
I have many friends who have Yakima rack systems for carrying boats, bikes, etc.
When a part is needed I tell them to contact etrailer.com. I have always been very satisfied with not only the availability of parts, but with the prompt delivery.
Thanks for realizing that we don't always want a complete system that Yakima seems to think we do.
etrailer always has just the replacement and/or modifications parts I am looking for. Used these along with the Yakima Replacement 5/16" x 2-1/4" Bolt Package to make installing and removing my Raptor bike racks easier.
good price and worked perfectly to replace old style load stops no longer available
The Hex Keys replaced the originals perfectly.
Fast service and fair price from etrailer.co,.

Still working!
I lost a Hex Key for my Yakima rack. I found just what I needed etrailer.com
Ordering was easy, service was great, shipping was timely. Thank you!
A hex nut fell off my Yakima bike rack—possibly loosened by vandal or attempted theft on a road trip. I only needed 1 new part and these appear to be genuine Yakima parts so I was happy to find these and with quick service.
Yakima makes a good quality product which always works as advertised. etrailer.com has one of the largest inventory of Yakima parts that I have ever seen. If etrailer doesn't have it Yakima doesn't make it. Got good on line help.
Fit my Subaru branded kayak carrier that is no longer made so unable to easily locate replacement parts- misplaced the original hex bolt locks and thought i was going to be out of luck. Arrived within 4 days of placing the order and that involved a weekend.
Good to be able to find the Yakima bits & pieces to complete rack system that's been collecting dust in the garage for many years.
Just as described and nice to find somebody carrying Yakima accessories and parts. Will definitely be back in the future
Am glad you guys are out there, was able to get the parts I needed.
The only way you could improve would be to deliver to Canada. I had to route my order to my son in Tucson who then re routed to me in Canada.
