Sea-Dog Folding D-Ring 048620-1, 316 Stainless Steel, 4,000 lb Breaking Strength
The Sea-Dog Folding D-Ring (048620-1) is a compact stainless steel tie-down point designed to keep fittings out of the way when not in use. The base is investment cast from corrosion resistant 316 stainless steel, while the D-ring itself is 17-4 PH stainless steel for added strength, and a rubber gasket seals the mount against water intrusion. When not needed, the D-ring folds flat against the base for a low profile that will not snag lines, feet, or gear crossing the deck; when needed, it lifts up to provide a secure attachment point rated to a 4,000 pound breaking strength.
This D-ring is intended for deck and hardware applications where a flush, corrosion resistant tie-down or lashing point is required, such as securing gear, lines, or covers. It installs with four 1/4 inch flat head fasteners, which are not included. The unit measures 1-3/16 inches by 1-3/8 inches at the base, with a ring opening of 1 inch and additional dimensions of 1/4 inch, 9/16 inch, and 1-1/4 inch across its various features, and weighs 0.26 pounds.
