What is the minimum distance between rails that this can be used with?

I guess you can use it as close as 2 feet or even less. You can put the binding to any of the cross rods, even next to each other. It will depend on your usage if it will be safe and sturdy.

It comes with 2 rails. Each rail is connected to the other with nylon straps so it should work.

Good day! the " U " hardware will accommodate rails from 0.50" to 1.25" in diameter. have a nice weekend! Cordially, Liliana M Landloop Corp

I think it will work with no problem. The sides tuck under the rails, not over. I think worst case would be minor trimming to clear the individual clamps. It is easy to trim with a utility knife or heavy duty scissors.

It depends on the rails you have. The rails have to have an opening in the middle (across the rail) where the rail grab hook will go in.Hope this helps.

Thanks for your inquiry. I had to do a little research to find out what the "u-rail" is andto answer your question, no. If you have the rail out or stowed away then you would befine. But you couldn't use the 2 of them together because the mat would cover the tracks thatthe rail fits with. Thanks AutoMatStore

I can't answer this without driving to the installation location but I believe it is an extra rails length of extension.

appears to be 1/2 inch NF. If I needed longer rails I'd just stop at a full service hardware store and buy a long solid piece of pipe

It would all depend on the amps that the train layout would need. Keep in mind this is only rated at 25 amps, and because the plastic is very thin you wouldn't want to exceed the 25 amps rating. On the other hand if the train layout is not going to be pulling over 25 amps then it should be fine.

They're intended for use in a system where the rails are the same height - as James stated, if they are off you will need to adjust the height of the front site but it will only adjust to compensate a small difference.

Yes. The set comes with a tool (allen wrench or torx wrench, i believe) for adjusting the distance between the cross rails.

If the metal railings has a flat face that is at least 2 inches wide, then it should work. If the railing is round all around, then it will not work.

The feet slide the length of the rail so there isnt really a min. Maybe 6 inches. Should fit anything

Its only 18" wide, and it sits lower than your box rails. You would have to have hitch installed first to be sure tho.

Sorry. Not sure. Depends on the amount of space you have on your rail and your mounta

My rails are 1.5" x 1.5"...would likely accommodate larger. DIY experiment... quite flexible.

Absolutely. There is a minimum distance depending on what your are attaching to the cross rails. I believe my Thule Boxter had a minimum distance of 28" or something like that. I certainly can understand why - in order to ensure you maximize the point of contact and anchoring affect with cargo on top of the vehicle. Hope that helps.
