What are the cross beams on both sides of the car roof called?
1 Answers
The strips on both sides of the roof are called roof moldings, sometimes also referred to as roof racks. They serve two purposes: one is for decoration, and the other is for installing and securing a roof rack. Here is more information about car roof racks: 1. Functions of car roof racks: Car roof racks combine both aesthetic and practical functions. They not only enhance the vehicle's appearance but also prove highly useful during trips. They can carry items that don't fit in the trunk, such as large luggage, bicycles, folding beds, etc. As long as the owner secures the cargo properly, especially by adding a cargo net, they can carry even more items. 2. Usage precautions: (1) Do not overload the roof rack. Pay attention to the rack's load capacity and the vehicle's actual carrying capacity. (2) Ensure the roof rack is equipped with a lock core and key, and always lock it and remove the key during use. (3) Make sure the sealing strips are installed on the crossbars during use to prevent dust and reduce wind noise.
