Overview

The Pelican Sport PS1959-00 is a replacement foam block designed for use with Pelican's DLX kayak and SUP transport kit crossbars (model PS1957). Rather than requiring you to purchase an entirely new transport kit when your foam padding wears out, this block lets you swap in a fresh pad and extend the life of your existing setup. It measures 7 x 4 x 3.5 inches and is shaped to sit securely on the kit's aluminum crossbars.

The block is made from EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate), a material chosen for its flexibility, shock resistance, and natural grip. This means it cushions your kayak or stand-up paddleboard against road vibrations and bumps while its inherent tackiness helps it stay in position on the bar. An additional anti-slip layer on the contact surface provides extra security against shifting during transit. Installation is straightforward — simply place the foam on the crossbar and load your watercraft on top. It's a small, inexpensive component, but one that plays an important role in protecting both your boat and your vehicle's roof during transport.

Key Features

This foam is compatible with Pelican’s DLX transport kit bars (PS1957). They are sold separately to allow you to replace only your foams instead of buying a complete kit again. They will allow you to transport safely your kayak or SUP

The pad is made of EVA. EVA is a very flexible and elastic component that offers better shock resistance when traveling with your kayak/SUP

EVA foams also have adhesive properties that ensure the pads stay in place on your car while you are driving. They also come with a additional anti-slip material that's provide better grip. Simply place them on the roof of your car and install your boat

This includes 1 soft foam pad (7 x 4 x 3.5in./18 x 10 x 9cm) that can be installed on the cross aluminium bars
