Product Information

Full details

The Gul Roof Rack Pads are designed for surfers, paddleboarders, and kayakers who need a reliable, protective solution for transporting water sports gear on standard vehicle roof bars. By providing thick, durable cushioning, these pads prevent pressure marks and structural damage to your boards during transit; however, users should note that they are specifically optimized for standard roof bars and may not fit oversized or aerodynamic custom racks.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use these pads on aerodynamic wing-style bars?

These pads are specifically designed for standard square or rectangular bars up to 12 cm in circumference and may not fit aerodynamic bars securely.

Do I get one or two pads in a pack?

The product includes a set of two pads, allowing you to outfit one pair of roof rack bars.

How long are these pads?

Each pad is 71 cm, or approximately 28 inches long.

Is the material waterproof?

The 600D Oxford nylon is durable and weather-resistant, making it suitable for outdoor use in various conditions.

Will these pads scratch my vehicle roof?

The soft underside is designed to protect your vehicle bars, but ensure the bars themselves are clean before installation to avoid grit scratching the metal.

Troubleshooting

Pads sliding along the roof bar during transit.

Ensure the Velcro is pressed firmly along the entire length of the bar and verify that the bar is within the 12 cm circumference limit.

Velcro is losing its grip strength.

Check the hooks and loops for accumulated debris, sand, or lint, and remove it using a stiff brush.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality 600D Oxford nylon ensures long-term durability.
  • Easy installation and removal via full-length Velcro strips.
  • Effective at preventing hull and deck damage on delicate boards.
  • Lightweight design does not add significant bulk to the vehicle.

Cons

  • Not compatible with specialized aerodynamic or extra-thick wing bars.
  • Fixed length of 28 inches may be short for very wide multi-board setups.
  • Velcro may accumulate grit or debris over extended periods of outdoor use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, simply open the full-length Velcro seam, wrap the pad around your existing roof rack bar, and press the Velcro firmly to close. The pads are compatible with square bars up to 12 cm in circumference. For care and maintenance, it is recommended to remove the pads from your vehicle when not in use for extended periods to preserve the longevity of the nylon fabric against UV radiation. If the pads become dirty, clean them using a soft cloth, mild soap, and warm water; allow them to air dry completely before storing them to prevent mold or mildew growth inside the internal foam padding.
