About This Product

When on the go, securing your cargo is always important regardless of your vehicle of choice. Keeper Ratcheting Cargo Bar works great for both SUVs and pick-up truck beds, helping to secure your cargo forward or to the rear. Self-adjusting rubber pads grip to multiple surfaces. Easily stores when not in use, but quickly available to stop shifting cargo. If you use a tonneau cover on your truck bed, position your Cargo Bar behind the wheel wells to keep your gear from rolling to the front and out of reach.

    This question has been asked before diameter of outside bar and you responded 1 inch. But the label on mine says it is 1.25" but doesn't say which bar. So what is the actual outside diameter of the outer bar?

      The bar came out completely and I’m having a hard putting it back in. Does someone had same problem and solved it? Thanks

      Answer This Question

      Jose, If the bar came completely out, it should be able to slide back in by pushing the silver button. If that is not working, please give us a call, Hampton Products, so that one of our consumer care coordinators can assist you with this issue. Our number is 800-562-5625.

        Will the bar's friction pads hold upon painted, slick, uneven truck sides?

        1 Answer | 
        Answer This Question

        Thank you for your interest in our Keeper Ratcheting Cargo Bar. Cargo bars are intended to be placed across a cargo area, creating a barrier and separation of a larger cargo area. The cargo area wall should be fixed walls or sides, cargo bars are not intended to have “Compression Forces”, only to divide and to prevent cargo from sliding around in the larger cargo areas. Will work on painted truck beds.

          The working load limit in the listing under specifications is 50 lbs. The manufacturer states its 350 in response to another question. Which is the correct amount?

              The Working Load Limit (WLL) is 350lbs, however cargo bars are intended to be placed across a cargo area, creating a barrier and separation of a larger cargo area. The cargo area wall should be fixed walls or sides, these bars are not intended to have “Compression Forces”, only to divide and to prevent cargo from sliding around in the larger cargo areas.

                Enough to damage the bed sides and/or cause the bar itself to bow.

                  Push release on handle.  Then open the.handle filly and the locking mechanism releases 

                  By|Jun 1, 2022

                    To release pull gold tap back to handle flip black handle all the way forward to silver rod and it will release.

                    By|Jun 3, 2022

                      The handle must be opened past the stop to release the lock. Lift the tab and push handle fully open. When the handle is fully open the cargo bar will release and collapse.

                        Frustrating to operate!
                        I got one of these when I bought my 2021 Chevy Colorado. I hate it. Although it holds very well once you get it adjusted, it constantly jams and I can't get it to release or tighten easily. The bar tends to rust inside the tube and I have to keep spraying it with oil or lithium grease every so often just to get it to work. Another problem is that the ratchet mechanism ends up in the middle of the bar, so after you load your material in the bed, you have to climb in the bed to set it in place.

                            Pretty good, but not user-friendly
                            I used to have one in my last truck that I could just twist to tighten. This one you have to ratchet with the lever to secure. It will hold your cargo securely, but it’s not as easy to use. You pretty much have to climb into the bed of your truck to tighten it. Although the photo shows the ratchet on one side, in reality when you extend it to the width of your truck it ends up being in the middle where you can’t reach it from standing next to your truck.You have to climb in the bed to secure it. Also it’s not clear how to release the latch and tighten it properly to close and lock the latch. Still it’s better than nothing and it holds things down well. I was able to haul a 14’ ladder in the 5’ bed of my Chevy Colorado using this bar and a few bungee cords.

                              Very Disappointing--the pads on this don't grip well on bed liners, which is a problem since pretty much every pickup truck has bed liners. Both times I've tried to use this it ends up sliding around the bed with the stuff I was trying to keep stationary (see picture). The mechanism is also not great. I still haven't figured out how to easily collapse it back down for storage. Also, when you put it in to hold stuff, you have to be in the bed of the truck because the ratcheting adjustment is in the middle of the bed.

                                Got this to replace a cargo bar that worked on friction. Once it got something on it (not sure what), there was no more friction! So far this works well. If you get it real tight, it can be hard to undo to remove it. Pay attention to the pictures that show you how to tighten, loosen, and slide it.

                                Seemed OK, but was too short for my bed. They need to make them a couple inches longer.

                                Very nice and sturdy cargo bar. A little finicky to figure out to use. But overall a very strong and well made product. Should do the trick in keeping my stuff in place. I just wish my orders from Home Depot were on time. They are always always late, because of shipping.
