Used with Thule bike, snowboard or ski carriers, this 3-wing knob fits over the threaded end of a U-bolt or a carriage bolt to help secure the rack to your load bars. Replacement hand knob twists on.I took an older model Thule bike rack out of storage and realized I was missing some parts. I have used etrailer before and was pleasantly surprised to find that they had everything I needed in stock - even parts that you can’t get directly from the manufacturer anymore. I have always had great experiences with eTraer and recommend them to everyone I know.
The Thule straps are rugged and work great to secure kayaks and other loads to my rooftop carrier. An awesome companion is the Thule buckle protector which ensures my car's paint isn't scratched if I inadvertently drop a strap and buckle.
Part fits perfectly. Lost one of these to road vibration, got four more (just in-case) from etrailer for very reasonable cost. Ordered the longer threaded section for added threaded connection strength.
I recently ordered ITEM # 753-0745 Replacement 3-Wing Hand Knob for Thule Ski Carriers from etrailer. They were $[XX] each. I reluctantly ordered 3 at that price because I had to use my carrier immediately. Looking at my own etrailer order history; they were $[X.XX] each in 2013. I know that prices rise, but this was crazy - 8-fold plus! etrailer got greedy! I'll be sure to go to a metric fastener supplier BEFORE needing them again!
They've been on my roof for a year - freezing temperatures to baking hot sun - and they still work great. No signs of cracks or anything. Very happy with these.
Great pricing on thule parts, excellent service, quick shipping, and great communication!
These fit my old Thule hull-a-port j-channel kayak carrier just fine after I lost several of the thumb screws. Replaced all 8 since they are so reasonably priced. And in case I lose another one!
Easy site to navigate and product was shipped as promised on time, I would highly recommend etrailer.com.
The extras part work like the original. And it’s great knowing that etrailer.com carries them individually. Never know what life has in store in the decades the Thule tracks serve you.
Just what we needed as one of the hand knobs fell off our Thule rack and was lost. I ordered some extras. Arrived in time for our next road trip.
I never thought I would find this part for our old Thule bike rack that we are going to sell. Without this part we did’t feel right about selling damaged goods. I am glad I found this website and would highly recommend doing business with them.
These appear to be the same parts for my very old Thule kayak saddle rack model 1050-40. I have been using this system since the 90's and except for some rusted bolts, it has been my goto kayak rack. I am glad that etrailer still has some parts to help to keep it going.
etrailer had these Thule replacement parts at a good price. shipping was fast and items arrived as expected. thanks for smooth E-transaction.
Just what I needed and a bit cheaper than buying directly from Thule's website. Thank you
it is the replacement parts I needed.
Fast efficient service. Very helpful with previous issue about converting parts with Thule.
The three wing hand knobs are the real-deal, I ordered a few extra to have around when or if I lose the others. At that price it's worth it!
Etrailer, YOUR THE BEST! ;)
Product is perfect, exactly what I needed. Not to mention the great customer service I received in making sure it got to where I needed it on time.
This 3-wing hand knob was just what I needed to replace a couple of broken ones. Now I'm back in business and my Thule box looks complete once again. This knob is an identical replacement to the original.
Had a great experience here at etrailer.com. I was having trouble on the Thule site finding the part I needed for an old cargo box. I contacted etrailer customer service and Kyle jumped in and helped me find the right replacement to the discontinued product I was looking for. The Hand Knob and Bolts arrived today and they fit perfectly.
I lost one set of brackets for my Thule kayak rack. The replacement parts that I got from etrailer worked perfectly.
Worked perfectly
It's the product I ordered. I can't find it on Thule's site anymore, so Etailer saved me from having to purchase the upgraded model. Thanks, Etailer.
This part replaces 3-wing knobs on a variety of Thule components. I have used them with the U-bolt assemblies holding old bike trays to the rectangular load bars, and to attach a Thule faring to a load bar. I have come across 3-wing knobs with short and long stems, and these are the long ones. They're required for clearance above some of the accessories, but they also have a tendency to split when screwed down very tight.
I have a 25 year old Thule bike rack and one of the knobs broke and the other three were pretty worn, so I ordered 4 new ones. With some technical help, I was able to order the correct ones and they show up promptly and worked great. The etrailer folks are the best. Thanks
