Get out there. Anywhere.

2012



All we know is how. Where and when is up to you. When you’re ready to get out there, so are we. Even if you don’t know where “out there” is yet, our transport systems will support you all the way – literally to the end of the road. To where your real journey starts. No matter if you’re heading for breathtaking mountains, a burning hot savannah, a raging river, or the ever-changing sea, getting there should be as simple, safe, and stylish as possible. In fact, every rack, roof box, and cargo carrier in this catalogue was developed with this in mind. It all starts with an active product development – as active as your life.

Tested the hard way for tough roads. We’ll never know what adventures you’ll be taking your equipment on. That’s why we develop our products to manage any weather, any temperature, and any terrain in the whole world. We’ve come to the conclusion that nothing else will do. You can just imagine what our test centre looks like. Every new product is put through temperatures of icy northern cold and burning desert heat, long sessions of intensive UV radiation, a salt chamber for corrosion endurance, several pressure and capacity tests – and finally a machine that shakes it for a lifetime’s worth, simulating two trips around the world in less than a week. Yes, it’s kind of brutal. But that’s the way the world is. And since we only give the sign of approval to products that have had the whole world against them (and survived it), it’s no wonder we’re international leaders in safety and durability – or that we even exceed the standards.



Racks


Racks

The number of family members, like the number of outdoor activities, tend to increase with time – and space in the car is reduced accordingly. One way to make room for more adventure is to load things on your car roof. Start by choosing a rack that suits your needs. A Thule roof rack is the strong foundation for every load, and you can easily mount accessories for different purposes. The racks also rest on a strong foundation themselves. For decades, we’ve been working continuously with product development, testing, and refinement. This has made our range the world’s widest – but the thoughts behind each product are still the same: perfect fit, reliable function, safety, and ease of use. We know you’re eager to get out there. With a Thule rack, it’s just a few simple operations and you’re on your way.

Bi-directional sliding The innovative Thule SlideBar makes loading heavy items simple. And because it slides out beside the car body, it protects your car from damage and you from getting dirty.

Thule T-track adapter For T-track owners, this provides an elegant alternative to tightening anything around the bar. And if you’re using Thule SlideBars, you can use the full width of it too.

Lockable All our load carriers are lockable to the roof, with the option of having one key to lock all your Thule products.

Tools are integrated In most Thule rack systems all tools are integrated, so there’s no risk of leaving them at home.

SmartSlide Sliding under-bar track covers, with foot position measurements moulded in for quick installation.

Torque indicators Show when the rack is safely and properly attached to the vehicle.

Getting started

The new, easy, and comprehensive Thule Fit Guide at www.thule.com, or the printed FitGuide available in shops, will help you find the perfect solution to your needs.

1 Choose the bar that fits your needs.

Thule WingBar If you want to use your bar often and leave it mounted on your car when not in use, the lightweight aluminium Thule WingBar might be the perfect choice. The bar is basically noiseless, and its T-track allows you to use the full width of the bar and easily fit load accessories. Its aerodynamic design also makes it our best-looking bar.

Thule SlideBar If you’re going to transport sports equipment such as kayaks or bikes, if you have a bulky load, or if you have a high car, take a look at the innovative Thule SlideBar. The bar slides out on either long side of the car body so you can easily manage your load.

Thule SquareBar If you only use your bar once in a while, the standard Thule SquareBar, made of steel and coated in black plastic for a durable finish, might be right for you.

Thule Professional Bar Craftsmen have special needs, and we have a special bar – the sturdy Thule Professional Bar, with a unique tri-slot design for fitting of multiple accessories. For more information about the Thule Professional range, see www.thule.com.

2 Find your foot. It’s vital that you choose the right feet for your car. And what you choose all depends on your roof. Whether you have pre-installed fixpoints, roof rails, integrated roof rails or just a standard roof, we have the feet to fit it. See the printed Thule Fit Guide or www.thule.com for the perfect foot for your car model.

Thule load carrier feet

3 Find the fitting kit that fits your car. Unless you have a car with railings or rain gutters, you’ll need a fitting kit to secure the feet to your car. The kit needs to fit your car perfectly. That’s why we offer a selection of kits that cover virtually every brand and model. So whatever you drive, we have the perfect kit for you. See the printed Thule Fit Guide or www.thule.com for the perfect fitting kit for your car model.

Thule WingBar The strong, silent type.

Thule WingBar

Inspired by aircraft wings, the new Thule WingBar is safe, stylish, aerodynamic – and extremely silent. Compared to its predecessor, the sound energy has been reduced by 90 % and the air resistance by 55 %.

» Lightweight aluminium. » T-track for fast mounting of carriers. » WindDiffuser diverts the air currents. » WingPlug for easy access to the T-track. » SmartSlide – an innovative track cover with length scale (patent pending). » Smoothly curved aerodynamic profile. » TrailEdge for reduced air resistance. » City Crash approved.


Bars

Low drag force 55 % drag force decrease when compared to Thule AeroBar.

Low sound energy When we put the Thule WingBar to test in our wind tunnel, we found that it produces 13 dB less noise than the Thule AeroBar. In other words, it’s practically noiseless.

WindDiffuser Easy-to-mount T-track cover with a textured rubber surface that reduces the wind noise and improves your fuel economy.

SmartSlide Sliding, under-bar track cover with a length scale for quick and easy foot installation.

T-track for fast mounting Load accessories are easily slid in place into the T-track. The full length of the load bar can be used, making more space for attaching several accessories.

City Crash approved Fulfils the City Crash test with 100 kg in combination with all Thule Rapid System load carrier feet.

WingPlug This end cap easily pivots open to allow full access to the T-track. The WingPlug is easily mounted and removed.

TrailEdge The sharp corners were inspired by fuel-efficient vehicles and help to reduce the aerodynamic drag.

Thule SlideBar The innovative Thule SlideBar makes loading heavy items simple. And because it slides out on either long side of the car body, it protects your car from damage and you from getting dirty.

Thule SlideBar » Bi-directional sliding. » Fail-safe automatic snap-lock. » Extended by 600 mm to enable everyone to access whole rack. » Locking cylinder on both sides which enables the user to lock the system against unauthorised use. » Colour indication for open and closed position. » Rubberised grip panels, giving an extra secure grip when using the slide-function. » Patent pending sliding mechanism. » City Crash approved. » Maximum load is 90 kg – also in extended position.

Thule Eye Bolt 320 If you’re going to mount your carrier on a Thule SlideBar, you might need a Thule Eye Bolt in order to use the slide function. The Thule Eye Bolt is mounted into the rear T-track and you fasten your straps to it.

T-track for fast mounting Load accessories are easily slid in place into the T-track. The full length of the load bar can be used, making more space for attaching several accessories.

Cargo


Cargo

A Thule cargo system is built to last and tested for security that far exceeds international requirements. In other words, the box is not going anywhere the car isn’t. When we develop our cargo solutions, we always keep a close eye on the car industry – especially the latest car designs. There’s a simple logic behind this: We want your roof box to both fit your car and suit it. But of course, at the centre of our design thinking is you. The roof boxes, foldable roof boxes, and other cargo carriers you’ll meet on the following pages are all extremely userfriendly, easy to attach, and full of loading capacity.

Bike

Whether it’s the thrill of racing downhill, the physical challenge of a long-distance race, or the peaceful relaxation of sightseeing at your own pace that you long for, cycling is perhaps the ultimate way of experiencing the outdoors. It’s a special kind of freedom, be it on asphalt, gravel, dirt roads, paths – or on the road that isn’t there until you make it. And all the way to your road of choice, our bike carriers will keep your two-wheeled companions in a tight grip, perfectly secured to your car. No matter if you want to transport your bikes on your car roof, on your car rear, attached to your towbar, or even inside your car, we have a solution that fits both your car and your needs. With a Thule bike carrier, all mounting, adjusting and securing is done easily and quickly. We also make them as safe and sturdy as we can – and there’s a simple logic behind that: The adventures shouldn’t start until you get on your bike.

Water

We all have our own personal relationship to water, and there’s water for every personality. If you want to battle the waves along a rugged coast or just glide down a calm river is your choice; taking the water is always a sure way to thrills and new discoveries. Us humans have thought up numerous ways to master this most unpredictable of elements, and kayaks, canoes, surfboards, and wakeboards might be the most exciting. And at Thule we’ve made it our mission to get your gear to the water, by developing ultra-safe racks that are easy to mount, space-saving, and of course, equipped with powerful straps and protective pads. In short, we’ll get you to the water safe and sound. Then it’s your choice if you want to go with the flow or against the tide.

Winter

The captivating beauty of the snow-covered mountains. The perfectly prepared piste, just waiting to be conquered. The rush of adrenaline just before you take the plunge. The feeling of absolute freedom as you glide down the slope on fresh, untouched powder snow. Yes, skiing is in a class by itself among outdoor activities. We try to match that by making ski carriers that really stand out among the competition. All Thule ski carriers are easy to mount, load and unload, whatever the weather. In addition they are elevated to prevent roof damage, and extendable for making those last-minute additions. In our winter range you’ll also find our snow chains, as safe and durable as all our other products. To put it simply, getting to the white open spaces is no trouble – even if it’s all downhill from there.

There’s more where this came from. What started out in 1942 as a one-man factory making pike traps has today evolved into a world-known brand. These seventy years have been an exciting journey for Thule, and along the way we’ve developed many innovative products. And each year the range has grown. In this catalogue we’ve collected all our car accessories, but that’s just a small part of everything that’s Thule. The business units on the next page work with products as diverse as horse trailers, boat trailers, snow chains, professional load carriers, towing solutions, and organisation. Thule is also a part of Thule Group, a collection of international brands that have one common mission: developing smart ways to simplify your active life.
