This ratcheting cargo bar is ideal for pick-up trucks and hauling those hard to secure loads. Made of durable materials, this load bar has a ratchet attached to slowly adjust the tension to keep your cargo secure. By lifting the ratchet handle, you can release the bar so it can extend or retract faster without tension.
It features 2.25" x 3" padded feet for no-slip traction and is adjustable from 40" to 70". The feet can pivot 360 degrees for more convenient placement.
They are a great solution for sectioning out space in mini vans, SUVs, pickups, and small trailers. The ratcheting mechanism lets you ensure a secure hold - keeping cargo in place and preventing shifting that can lead to damage or other issues.
Note: Use caution when tensioning, as over-tightening can lead to vehicle wall damage.
If this cargo bar is too wide for your delivery van or other smaller vehicle, it's easy to shorten! The end without the ratcheting device can be removed and cut down to the right size - all you'll need are a couple of wrenches, a drill, and a hacksaw.

California Residents: WARNING
Ideal for narrow pickup beds . Nice product
These are junk. Will not adjust (tighten) any more once they touch the wall I thought it was just me, but let 2 other guys try to make them work they threw then in the corner with the rest of the scrap. I was convinced I could not be that stupid and tried again to squeeze them and just by hand and with some force applied I managed to strip the adjustment cogs. They still never adjusted tight enough to hold themselves in place. I have other long load bars so i just cut them off to make them short enough to use for this application. I would send them back but shipping and restocking is not worth the money. Lesson learned.

I bought this thinking it would be a solution to stuff sliding ahead in the pickup bed. it's ok for this, but the ratchet steps are pretty course so it goes from not quite tight "enough" to pushing the sides of the box out in one click. the tube is about 1" in diameter so it has a good amount of flex in it. I wouldn't trust that it will stop anything of any mass from moving arround. am I happy with it, meh, not really, but am I unhappy enough to send it back... probably not...
