Rather than being sized to one plate diameter, this key adjusts to open up to a maximum of 6 inches, letting it work across a range of deck plate and fill cap sizes instead of requiring a separate key for each one. It comes with two stainless steel pins, in 3\/16 inch and 5\/16 inch sizes, which fit into the engagement slots or holes on most plates and caps so the key can grip and turn them without slipping or marring the fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstruction is sand cast bronze, chosen for its corrosion resistance in a marine environment where the tool will be exposed to saltwater, spray, and repeated handling. The handle has a drilled hole so an optional lanyard can be attached, which helps keep the key from being dropped or lost overboard while working on deck. At 7-3\/4 inches overall length, it is sized for a solid two-hand grip when breaking loose a stuck or over-tightened deck plate.\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 335680-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Adjustable Deck Plate Key\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sand Cast Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7-3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Opening:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Sizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/16 inch and 5\/16 inch stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tarnished Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Powder Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.728 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 035514335126\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdjusts to open deck plates and fill caps up to 6 inches, and includes two pin sizes (3\/16 inch and 5\/16 inch) to accommodate most plates or caps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat sizes of deck plates does the Sea-Dog 335680-1 key fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e It adjusts to open up to a maximum of 6 inches, and it comes with two stainless steel pins, 3\/16 inch and 5\/16 inch, so it can engage most deck plates or fill caps rather than just one fixed size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is this deck plate key made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sea-Dog 335680-1 is made of sand cast bronze, a corrosion resistant material chosen to hold up to saltwater and marine exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is the key?\u003c\/strong\u003e 7-3\/4 inches overall, which gives enough leverage to break loose a stuck or over-tightened deck plate by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it come with a lanyard?\u003c\/strong\u003e No lanyard is included, but the handle has a drilled hole so an optional lanyard can be attached to help prevent the 335680-1 from being dropped overboard while in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Sea-Dog deck plate key weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e It weighs 0.728 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color or finish does this key have?\u003c\/strong\u003e It has a tarnished gold color with a powder coated finish over the sand cast bronze body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan one key open both round and other style deck plates?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 335680-1 is designed to accommodate most plates or caps using its adjustable 6 inch maximum opening and the two included pin sizes, rather than being limited to one plate style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need anti-seize or any other tool with this key?\u003c\/strong\u003e The key itself is all that is needed to turn a deck plate; Sea-Dog recommends using anti-seize lubricant on deck plate threads separately to prevent galling, but that is a maintenance step for the deck plate installation, not a requirement to use the 335680-1 key.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this a heavy duty tool or a lightweight one?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is built as a heavy duty tool, with a solid sand cast bronze construction intended for repeated use rather than a light disposable design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the manufacturer part number for this deck plate key?\u003c\/strong\u003e The part number is 335680-1, made by Sea-Dog.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sea-Dog","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48988755525851,"sku":"S-D-335680-1","price":43.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/8077.jpg?v=1784428879","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/sea-dog-335680-1-adjustable-deck-plate-key-sand-cast-bronze-opens-to-6-with-3-16-and-5-16-stainless-pins","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
