MAXTRAX MOUNTING PIN SET X-SERIES
MAXTRAX MOUNTING PIN SET X-SERIES
Genuine MAXTRAX Mounting Pins are the easiest, safest, and most secure mounting solution for putting your MAXTRAX on a roof rack or cross-bars. Constructed from high-quality black nylon and stainless steel, these quick-release pins can hold one or two sets of MAXTRAX (2 or 4 boards). The design also permits a TSA-style padlock to be run through the top of the pin to keep your MAXTRAX secure—we recommend a bicycle cable lock if your security requirements exceed this.

How many MAXTRAX boards will one set hold?
Four — one pair of MKII on the lower knuckle and one pair of X-Series stacked above. The kit is designed for that mixed stack, not for two pairs of the same model.
Do these fit both X-Series and MKII boards?
Yes. The pins seat in the standard MAXTRAX mounting holes that X-Series and MKII boards share. Note the kit is sized for one pair of each stacked together, not a double stack of a single model.
Do I need tools to mount or remove the boards?
No. The pins are quick-release. Push to seat them and pull to release — you can have a board off the rack and under a tire in seconds.
Are the boards locked once they're mounted?
The pin head has a channel for a TSA-style padlock, which deters casual theft at a trailhead or fuel stop. For higher security, run a bicycle cable lock through the board stack instead.
Will the pins hold on rough washboard roads?
The stainless detent keeps each pin seated, but on sustained corrugations add the padlock or a cable lock as a backup retainer so nothing works loose.
How do I keep them working in the long run?
The black nylon and stainless steel resist corrosion in salt and weather. Rinse trail grit off the pins now and then so the detent and lock channel stay clean and free-moving.
