Keeper Adjustable Cargo Bar for Pickup Truck Bed, Ratcheting Cargo Bar, Ideal Work Truck Accessories, Black/Silver, 40"-70" Adjustable Length

Are they awesome? Yes they are, solid reliable and doing the job just as good a over year later as they did on day 1, ( 25th Sept. 2024) Easy to set up, easy to adjust, lock in tight and stay there. Mine have not moved in 6 months. They are part of a suspension system for tools in my work vehicle. Would I buy them again? Absolutely not! Why you ask after a 5 star review? Because just a year ago I purchased the 3 pack for $52, well worth every penny! But $90 for the same thing, not going to happen. A solid shower curtain rod is a better option at that price point.

The product arrived quickly, in fact faster than expected. It was extremely well packaged and easy to unpack. The installation of the cargo bar and the net was rediculously simple. Frankly, shocked that it took about 60 seconds to securely install. I spent more time wondering if I missed something. The cargo net/bag slipped easily over the bar and the ratchet and practically positioned itself across the bar. I located the spots on each side of my Avalanche, dropped the bar in place, toggled the ratchet up with a simple press with my thumb and simply ratcheted several times to tighten the ends against the sides of the truck bed with enough tension. Even a couple of very aggressive pulls and shakes by hand failed to displace the secure mounting. Really liked the thick rubber pads securely attached to the bar ends. Makes the bar fit tightly and doesn't damage the finish. Now the real test...several extremely heavy items. (2) 5 gallon buckets of coating and a storage box full of tools that takes 2 people to lift and a bag of sand in the cargo bag. After a 5+ mile trip on some very bumpy roads, quite a few sharp turns and deliverately short stops I opened the bed to find everything was exactly where I loaded it. Nothing moved or spilled!!! The grocery test was next. Tired of trying to pack shopping bags in the truck cab so they didn't go flying around and having to open all doors to load and then reclaim them at home making it look and feel like a chinese fire drill, I hoped the cargo net would be my salvation. It was. I quickly loaded 6 very full, top heavy bags from the market in just seconds and without having to juggle the shopping cart from hitting my doors or the cars next to me or worse the dreaded "roll-away" chase the cart fiasco. Loading from the tailgate solved all these and made loading easy. Everything fit in securely. When I got home, again, nothing had moved and I did my best with a few short stops and fast acceleration (as if there is any other kind). Unloading was fast and simple. I've also had to remove the bar several times to use the full bed for larger loads. It was a cinch to release the latch tension, without losing my settings. Put the bar back in and 1 quick ratchet press and it was secured again; easy! This may be one of my smartest and most useful investments. The price was excellent and considering how much time and hassle its saved me, I'm planning on adding a second bar soon. Awesome, solid, well made products that really deliver the results I needed!! Highly recomend. Going to give these as gifts this year to family for their trucks.

Works as advertised. Appears to be very well made. Very easy to operate. Only problem I'm having is it doesn't fit my 2024 GMC, truck bed is a couple inches to wild. I will have to add some blocks of wood to make it work for me.

Works great

Great product. Strong and easy to use

Great product. I have a few of these cargo bars for my truck bed and fur support in my garage. Only reason for 3 stars is because I ordered a 3 pack and only received one cargo bar.

The Keeper ratcheting cargo bar works great for securing loads in a pickup truck bed. It feels solid, holds cargo firmly in place, and adjusts easily to fit different widths. Verdict: A simple but reliable tool for keeping items from shifting during transport.

Nice piece, easy to use , lightweight and sturdy

Great bit of kit for keeping timber sheets, wet wall and plasterboard upright and secure in the back of the van

كويس بس الشبك صغير

Ajustable para varios lugares, buen producto.

A must for all truck owners. Best solution to manage your bed. You are not stuck with one space. For sure i will buy a second one for the second end of the bed . Heavy duty quality

I’ve used it for almost 5 years now in my pickup truck bed. Works great! Highly recommend.
