ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A load carrier for a vehicle roof is provided with a load car- rying strut (2) with a foot arrangement (1) in each end. At least one foot arrangement (1) is provided with an accommodation space (6 in which an end portion of the strut may be inserted. According to the invention, the accommodation space (6) is in downward communication with a cuneiform locking space (7) in which a locking body (9) is placed. The locking space (7) is defined down- wardly by a cam surface (8) which is obliquely inclined in relation to the longitudinal direction of the strut (2), and the locking body (9) is actuated by a screw (10) so as to be movable along the cam surface (8) and thereby to a position fixedly clamping the strut (2) in its accommodation space (6). A flexible sheet spring (14) may be disposed between the locking body (9) and the strut for protecting the surface coating of the strut (2). Publication Figure: Fig. 1
