Does Retrax XR Tonneau Cover T-Slots Have Weight Capacity for Roof Rack Tent

Question

Question:

I have the retrax pro XR cover with the slimline 2 rack. I recently put the ikamper sky camp 3.0 on the roof rack. I was wondering if the retrax pro can accommodate the weight of the cargo basket, ikamper and my wife and I. About 600lbs on the side tslotted rails total.

The dynamic weight capacity of the RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover # RTT-80851 is 500 lbs so it would easily handle the 600 lb weight you mentioned since that would be a "static" weight meaning it's not weight on the rack when on the road where bumps are going to exaggerate the stress of that weight.
