An attachment device for a load carrier includes a housing, a first attachment member, a second attachment member, an actuation member, and a locking system. The first and second attachment members apply a clamping force to an elongate member (such as a cross bar of a roof rack) between the first attachment member and the second attachment member. The actuation member is configured to apply a closing force to the first attachment member and is maneuverable from an open position to a closed position. The locking system is configured to resiliently accumulate a portion of the closing force when the closing force applied to the actuation member or the first attachment member exceeds a predefined load, regardless of the size of the elongate member but within a range of motion of the first and second attachment members, during the transition from its open position to its locked position.
