The cargo fixture apparatus is a system which assists a user with securing their cargo, typically within the cargo area of a transportation vehicle. The cargo fixture apparatus includes a clamping block which may be mounted to a rail-like cross-member. The clamping block includes an upper jaw and a lower jaw which clamp down on the cross member. The upper jaw and lower jaw each have a load-transfer pin passing through them. The clamping force is provided by tightening one or more bolts which pass through the load-transfer pins. The cargo fixture apparatus may further include a mounting system for the cross-member which is vertically adjustable. The mounting system may include a security cover and locking system which help prevent unwanted tampering or theft of the mounting system. Some versions of the cargo fixture apparatus may be installed in pickup trucks, for example and without limitation: the Tesla Cybertruck.
