The hinged design allows the fitting to attach an eye end securely to support tubing without needing to slide the fitting onto the end of the tube first, which makes it ideal for mounting on handrails or in other applications where sliding a fitting onto the tubing is not possible or convenient.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis jaw slide is sized for 7\/8 inch tubing and uses a 1\/4 inch pin with a bolt-secured hinge. It is constructed of injection molded nylon that is UV resistant, making it suited to ongoing exposure to sun and marine conditions. The fitting is finished in black and comes with the mounting screw (screw part 0P27001) included. A version for 7\/8 inch tubing with a 3\/16 inch pin and non-hinged slide-on design is also available as a separate part for applications where the fitting can be slid directly onto the tube end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sea-Dog\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 273162-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hinged Jaw Slide w\/Bolt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube O.D.:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScrew Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0P27001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.07 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard Pack:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Injection molded nylon, UV resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 035514273992\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFits 7\/8 inch diameter tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Sea-Dog 273162-1 jaw slide used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 273162-1 is a hinged jaw slide fitting used in Bimini top systems to attach an eye end securely to support tubing, whether installing a new Bimini top on boat rails or adding extra support arms to an existing top.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size tubing does this fitting work with?\u003c\/strong\u003e This hinged jaw slide is sized for 7\/8 inch tubing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is it called a hinged jaw slide instead of a regular jaw slide?\u003c\/strong\u003e The hinge lets the 273162-1 attach directly to the tubing in place, rather than requiring the fitting to be slid onto the end of the tube, which makes it useful for mounting on handrails or in spots where sliding a fitting on is not convenient.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color is part number 273162-1?\u003c\/strong\u003e This jaw slide fitting is black.
