ABSTRACT:
A pair of easy to install universal cargo tie-down rails for mounting on a variety of station wagon or van roof panels and on pick-up truck cargo boxes. Each of the tie-down rails is comprised of a pair of end brackets, at least one intermediate bracket, a cylindrical thin wall tube and small fasteners in each of the brackets for clamping the brackets on the thin wall tube. Each of the brackets is slidably mounted on the thin wall tube and free to rotate about the axis of the cylindrical tube before the bracket is clamped to the tube. In an alternate embodiment, the ends of the tube are closed with pressed in place covers.
