  • The Core Cargo Bar easily mounts in the bed or cargo area of your pickup, SUV or van—no tools needed
  • Precision ratchet mechanism extends the Cargo Bar from 40" to 70"
  • The Cargo Bar uses your vehicle's natural rigidity to form a super-secure cargo restraint
  • "Easy-Grip" handle and exclusive ratchet-lock deliver massive holding power
  • The Cargo Bar is constructed of heavy-duty steel and features a durable powder-coat finish
  • Rubber-coated feet assure a solid, non-slip grip that won't damage your vehicle
  • The Cargo Bar is lightweight and easy to maneuver
  • Retracts small enough to stow behind your seat when not in use
  • Your Core Cargo Bar is backed by a 1-year warranty

Description

Keep heavy loads securely in place with the Core Cargo Bar. Now, you can haul most any cargo without fear of tipping, sliding or losing it altogether. The Cargo Bar quickly adjusts to the width of your cargo area and harnesses your vehicle's rigidity to keep a steadfast grip on plus-size payload.

The Cargo Bar is fast and easy to use. Just position the heavy-duty steel bar between your bedsides, ratchet tight and lock in place. Your cargo is safe, secure and ready for transport. And, when it's time to unload, the bar comes out as quickly and easily as it went in.

Extending from 40" to 70", the Cargo Bar fits most vans, trucks and SUVs. Rubber-coated feet provide super-stability and prevent the bar from slipping or marring your vehicle's finish. The durable powder-coating, rubber-covered handle and steel construction ensure loads of cargo-clenching service. What's more, Core backs your Cargo Bar with a 1-year warranty.

ratcheting Core Cargo Bar

"I've only had the bar in place for a few weeks, and I'm very pleased with it. I have some plastic crates in the forward bed of the Ford Ranger, and I'm using the bar on the aft side to hold them in place against the bed wall. I bought a second bar and I'm planning to use it with crates braced against the tailgate. The bar seems sturdy enough for holding a variety of cargo in place. I have a hard lift up cover over the bed and I tend to use it as a big "trunk," for storing a variety of odds & ends used in rebuilding my sailboat. Moreover, little room is available for storage in the cab and behind the seats, so storage is important. I had considered using a twist-type bar, but the ratchet bar develps more pressure with the end pads to hold the bar in place securely. The ratchet makes it easy to do. I imagine that I'll keep the bars when we sell the Ranger and go cruising. I believe they will be useful for similarly storing crates on the boat. I don't know how they would fare in a high-salt environment. This was part of my first order with Autoanything and I'm satisfied with the experience."

"I got the core cargo bar thinking that I could use it to hold a couple of heavy duty and easily swappable plastic bins in my truck rather than installing a permanent tool box. My problem with a tool box is that it always seems to be in the way and never actually has what I need. The cargo bar is heavy duty, easy to use, and ended up being fought over at my house - should it go in the SUV or the truck as intended. I almost acquiesed and put it in the SUV fearing someone would lift it from the bed of the truck because it was so nice. It ended up in the truck and it is exactly what I was looking for. If you were going to use it in an SUV, you would need to make sure you have solid sides in the cargo area to brace it. Sometimes SUVs have molded plastic sides in the cargo area that would not be appropriate for bracing such a heavy duty bar."

"I used to use a peice of wood slid into the factory supplied slots in the bed of my truck to keep cargo from sliding forward. The down side was that it made a lot of noise when I hit bumps and limited the size of the cargo at the back of the bed. The cargo bar is great, it doesn't slip and is very strong. I recently hauled two large containers of rocks from rock hounding trip to the desert and the bar held fast while blasting across the desert. I highly recommend the Core Cargo Bar to anyone looking for a similar product."
