Common options include Thule SquareBar for practical everyday carrying, Thule WingBar Evo for an aerodynamic aluminium system, Thule ProBar Evo for professional and trade use, and Thule SlideBar for easier side loading on compatible vehicles.

FITMENT GUIDE
How to Get the Correct Thule Roof Bar Fit for Your Van
Commercial van roof bar fitment is vehicle-specific. Fitment can change between generations of the same model, even when the vans look similar.
- Confirm the exact van: make, model, generation and model year.
- Check the roof type: fixed mounting points, raised rails, flush rails or T-profile.
- Choose your load bar: SquareBar, WingBar Evo, ProBar Evo or SlideBar where compatible.
- Check load limits: never exceed the lowest permitted limit of the vehicle roof, roof bars or fitted accessory.
- Match the system to the work: ladders, timber, conduit, pipework and other professional loads may influence the best bar system and accessories.
If you are unsure, confirm the fit before ordering. A complete vehicle-specific Thule system is safer and simpler than trying to combine individual components without checking compatibility.
