How do these rails attach to the truck bed?

These Putco bed rails mount into the stake pockets on your truck bed. This makes for an easy installation with no drilling required. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the specific steps.

What is the weight capacity of the tie-down points?

Each tie-down point is rated for 500 lbs. This gives you a combined capacity of 1000 lbs per rail for securing your cargo. Always distribute the load evenly and use appropriate tie-down straps.

Are these rails compatible with a tonneau cover?

Compatibility with a tonneau cover will depend on the specific cover and how it mounts to the bed. Some tonneau covers that mount inside the stake pockets may not be compatible. Check the tonneau cover's fitment requirements before purchasing.
