All Composite Cross Bar

Product Description

The all composite cross bar from Polygon utilizes an engineered composite structure that results in excellent retention of mechanical and physical properties at elevated temperatures. This all-composite cross bar eliminates the need for traditional metallic cross bars that need secondary insulation that is augmented with an additional layer of insulative paint.
