About the Thule Aeroblade Load Bars (ARB53)
Thule's AeroBlade Load Bars are the strong, silent type. Using a sophisticated BoxBeam construction, they are some of the strongest load bars on the market with a capacity of up to 165 pounds. That's the strong, now for the silent: In addition to their wing-like shape, the AeroBlades sport a textured surface that greatly improves wind flow so you get drastically reduced noise and much better gas mileage. The bars are easy to use, too, thanks to Thule's SmartSlide system that makes installation hassle free and their SwingBlade technology that allows full access to the T-slot for easy accessory additions.
Features
WindDiffuser™ is a textured surface on the t-slot cover that disturbs the airflow better than a smooth surface, greatly reducing wing noise.
The sophisticated BoxBeam aluminum extrusion creates one of the strongest load bars in the market.
SmartSlide is a molded measurement system providing a quick, no-hassle, tapemeasure-free foot installation. SmartSlide also covers the underbar slot to improve aerodynamics and noise diffusion.
SwingBlade™ end cap pivots open to allow full access to the t-slot for easy accessory installs.
