Trailer Ladder Rack Installation on Utility Trailer With Round Tubing

Question:

Hello, i am on the hunt for a rack system that will fit on my trailer for kayaks and canoes. The kicker is that my trailer has round top tubes, not angle iron like i see in most pictures for racks. My question is do you carry and recommend a rack system that would mount too a utility trailer with round top tubes? Thanks for the help

Currently we do not have a rack system designed to attached to round tubing on a utility trailer. Round tubing naturally is a challenge for this application since it could allow any mounting hardware used (say u-bolts, for example) to rotate. If you can find a welder to weld on flat steel plates to the round tubing that would give you some options since you'd then be able to use a ladder rack like the Rack'em Fitz-All Enclosed Trailer Ladder Rack # RA-28.
