What makes Rightline Gear Range Car Top Carriers Weatherproof +?
A step up from Rightline Gear’s Ace Car Top Carriers, The Range Carriers add a urethane coated zipper. A zipper flap adds extra protection. All seams of the carrier are welded watertight and Rightline Gear’s proprietary PVC Semi-Coated Mesh XT stands up to the elements for years to come. Other carriers may claim to be waterproof or weatherproof, but they do not have the features to back it up.
Features
Urethane Coated Zipper
The Range Car Top Carriers use Urethane Coated Zippers as the first line of defense against moisture and the elements, while other carriers use standard zippers with exposed teeth that let water in!
PVC Semi-Coated Mesh XT
High velocities are no match for Range Car Top Carriers, thanks to their heavy-duty, Xtra Tough PVC Semi-Coated Mesh XT construction.
Stuff Sack
All of Rightline Gear’s Range Car Top Carriers come with a handy stuff sack so your carrier is always on hand when you need it, and easily stows away when you don’t.
Attachment Methods
