Beckson Marine DP84-B Screw-Out Deck Plate, 8 Inch, Black

The Beckson Marine DP84-B is an 8 inch screw-out deck plate finished in black, designed to provide sealed access to below-deck storage, wiring runs, plumbing, or tank fittings on boats. The screw-out style lid threads securely into the base to keep water out of the compartment below while allowing quick access when needed for inspection, maintenance, or storage retrieval. Constructed for marine use, the deck plate mounts flush to the deck surface and is sized for an 8 inch opening, a common fitting size for hatches, lazarettes, and equipment access points on recreational boats. The black finish is a solid, non-glossy color that blends with dark deck hardware and trim. Care for the deck plate is straightforward, with hand washing recommended to maintain its appearance and seal integrity over time; it is not dishwasher or microwave safe, as it is intended solely as marine deck hardware rather than a food-contact item. This deck plate is sold as a single unit under the Beckson Marine DP84-B part number, making it easy to order a matching replacement or an additional unit for another access point on the same boat.
