Sea-Dog Bimini Top Strap 298172-1, Black Nylon Webbing with Stainless Snap Hooks, 1 Inch x 8 Feet, Sold as a Pair
The Sea-Dog Bimini Strap (part number 298172-1) is a replacement strap for lost or damaged Bimini top straps. It is constructed of 1 inch wide black nylon webbing fitted with corrosion resistant stainless steel snap hooks, giving it the strength to hold a Bimini top secure while resisting UV exposure, saltwater, and general marine wear. Each strap measures 8 feet 1 inch long with a 2-1/8 inch hook, and the strap is sold in pairs, matching the way Bimini top straps are typically used and replaced on either side of a top.
This strap is a straightforward, purpose-built replacement part: no tools or modification are needed beyond attaching the stainless snap hooks to the existing Bimini top hardware. Because it is made from nylon webbing rather than rubber or elastic cord, it holds its length and does not stretch out or sag over a season of use the way some worn factory straps do.
