Sold as a pair, each eye end slides over the end of a bimini top pole and provides an attachment point that pivots at the jaw slide or deck hinge, allowing the top to fold and deploy smoothly. The nylon construction resists corrosion, making it suitable for continuous exposure to sun, salt water, and moisture without rusting or degrading like uncoated metal hardware. Installation is straightforward: the eye end slides over the pole end and is secured in place, requiring no special tools for a basic swap of worn or broken hardware. This eye end is sized for 7\/8 inch diameter bimini top poles and is intended to pair with a jaw slide or deck hinge, which are sold separately. It is a commonly needed replacement part for boat owners maintaining or repairing bimini top frames, and the black finish matches the black anodized or powder-coated poles and hardware used on most bimini top systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Taylor Made Products\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11707\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 (1 pair) per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.3 x 2.95 x 1.57 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size bimini top pole does the Taylor Made 11707 eye end fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Taylor Made 11707 external eye end is sized for 7\/8 inch diameter bimini top poles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many eye ends come in a package of part number 11707?\u003c\/strong\u003e Two eye ends are included per package, sold as one pair, so both ends of a bimini top pole run can be fitted from a single package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the eye end made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made of black nylon, chosen for corrosion resistance in marine environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the 11707 eye end include a jaw slide or deck hinge?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The 11707 eye end slides over the pole and connects to a jaw slide or deck hinge, but those components are not included and must be purchased separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the 11707 eye end installed?\u003c\/strong\u003e Installation involves sliding the eye end over the end of the bimini top pole, a simple process that does not require special tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color is the 11707 eye end available in?\u003c\/strong\u003e This part number is black.
