Clearance Needed Under Crossbar For Rhino-Rack 2-Kayak Carrier
Question:
Will this fit to 1” round EMT? What is the clearance needed under the cross bar?
asked by: David S
Expert Reply:
Let's start with the clearance needed under the crossbar, and you won't need much, just about 1-3/8 inches for the knobs to clear when mounting the Rhino-Rack 2-Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # S512-S512X.
As for fitting to round 1 inch electrical metal tube, that's a bit trickier. Yes, technically it likely could, but has never been tested with this type of tube; it often has coating so I can't say for certain whether or not this could slide on the tube. I recommend going with a traditional roof rack instead to ensure proper fit, and if you let me know the year, make, and model of your vehicle I can recommend one for you.
