Abstract
A load carrier roof-mounted on a vehicle has longitudinal so-called railings (2) with elongate, undercut spaces for anchorage bodies (8) which have anchorages (12, 30) for struts or other accessories extending between the railings. The anchorage bodies (8) have upper (11) and lower (10) parts which are separately insertable in the undercut space transversely of the longitudinal direction thereof. The parts (10 and 11) are, interiorly in the undercut space, combinable to form the anchorage body (8). A screw (16) between the parts (10 and 11 ) tightens these to expansion in the undercut space.
