Thule K-Guard 840

Thule K-Guard lockable kayak carrier

Faster, safer, easier – spend less time loading and unloading and more time in your kayak

Maximum safety and security are just two of the many features of the new fully lockable Thule K-Guard 840 kayak carrier, making it probably the ultimate solution for safe roof mounted transportation of kayaks.
The K-Guard 840 includes a pair of special lockable steel core straps, thereby providing excellent additional anti-theft security for the kayak. Also featured is a unique wide angle tilting system enabling simple loading and unloading of a kayak. The rubber supporting arms adapt to different hull shapes.

K-Guard kayak carriers include two padded aluminium tiltable cradles and a pair of lockable straps.

Useful tip from roofracks.co.uk:  “Due to the shape of the K-Guard it is only possible to fit fairly narrow kayaks to this carrier”
