T-H Marine GL-2 Pontoon Gate Latch, Gray, Fits 1, 1-1/8, or 1-1/4 Inch Square Tube
T-H Marine GL-2 Pontoon Gate Latch, Gray, Fits 1, 1-1/8, or 1-1/4 Inch Square Tube
The T-H Marine GL-2 is a pontoon gate latch designed to secure hinged entry gates on pontoon boats and keep them from swinging inward while underway or at dock. It operates on right or left hinged gates, so it works with either gate orientation on the same latch design. The latch body is nylon molded, which prevents the rattling and vibration noise common with metal latch hardware as the boat moves through wake and chop. It is finished in gray to blend with typical pontoon fencing and gate hardware, and it mounts using a door-mount style installation that keeps hardware straightforward with basic tools. The GL-2 is sized to fit 1 inch, 1-1/8 inch, or 1-1/4 inch square tube, covering the common gate frame dimensions used across most pontoon boat gate systems, which makes it a practical replacement latch when an original latch has broken, seized, or gone missing. At 0.17 pounds, it adds negligible weight to the gate assembly. Whether replacing a worn latch or upgrading gate security on a pontoon entry gate, the GL-2 provides a simple, quiet-operating, corrosion-resistant nylon latch built for marine use.
