ISO PAS 11154, 1st Edition, December 15, 2006 - Road vehicles Roof load carriers

This standard applies for roof racks of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles up to a permissible total weight of 3,5 t according to ISO 1176 and specifies requirements and test methods for these. It is also valid for roof racks mounted on trailers.

So-called magnetic or suction foot racks, i.e. roof racks whose attachment on the vehicle is only via magnetic forces or vacuum, are excluded from this standard.

Special forms

Structures of roof racks for which no other technical or statutory regulations otherwise apply and which are not listed in 4.2 “Forms”, shall fulfil the safety-related requirements of this standard under consideration of the weight, center of gravity, air resistance and other safety-relevant properties. In individual cases, test requirements can extend beyond these requirements. Corresponding additional markings and warning notes shall be added if required.
