Each hinge is cast from chromed zamak, a zinc alloy blended with magnesium, aluminum, and copper, giving the hardware a bright silver finish and strong corrosion resistance for saltwater and freshwater environments alike. The hinge mounts flat to the boat sidewall using a face-mount design, and the included bolts secure the support pole eye end directly to the hinge body, allowing the bimini top pole to pivot smoothly for raising, lowering, and folding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis deck hinge is intended as a direct replacement when an existing bimini top hinge is broken, worn, or has failed, restoring proper pole articulation without replacing the entire top or frame. Installation is straightforward: mount the hinge to the sidewall with fasteners, then attach the support pole eye end using the supplied hardware. Taylor Made Products manufactures this hinge in the USA and backs it with the fit and finish boaters expect from a purpose-built marine hardware supplier.\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 1205\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chromed zamak, zinc, magnesium, aluminium and copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unfinished\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Face Mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Location:\u003c\/strong\u003e Boat sidewall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 (sold in pairs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 040011112057\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Taylor Made Products Deck Hinge Side Mount used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a replacement mounting hinge that attaches a bimini top support pole to the boat sidewall, letting the pole pivot to raise, lower, or fold the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many hinges come in part number 1205?\u003c\/strong\u003e Part number 1205 is sold in pairs, so two deck hinges are included in each package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the deck hinge made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e Each hinge is cast from chromed zamak, a zinc alloy combined with magnesium, aluminum, and copper, which gives it a silver chrome finish and corrosion resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this hinge corrosion-resistant for marine use?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the chromed zamak construction of the Taylor Made 1205 deck hinge resists corrosion from saltwater and freshwater exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the deck hinge mount to the boat?\u003c\/strong\u003e It uses a face-mount design and is installed flat against the boat sidewall with bolts, and the included bolts also secure the bimini top support pole eye end to the hinge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the 1205 deck hinge include mounting hardware?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the bolts needed to secure the support pole eye end to the hinge are included with the Taylor Made Products deck hinge side mount.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this to replace a broken or worn bimini top hinge?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, part number 1205 is designed as a replacement for a broken or worn deck hinge on a bimini top, restoring normal pole movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere is the Taylor Made 1205 deck hinge manufactured?\u003c\/strong\u003e Taylor Made Products manufactures the 1205 deck hinge side mount in the USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color and finish does this hinge have?\u003c\/strong\u003e The hinge has a silver, unfinished chrome-plated appearance from its chromed zamak casting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the deck hinge weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e Each package of the Taylor Made Products deck hinge side mount weighs 0.25 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs installation difficult for this deck hinge?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, installation is straightforward: mount the hinge to the sidewall, then attach the bimini top support pole eye end using the included bolts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Taylor Made 1205 hinge genuine Taylor Made Products hardware?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, part number 1205 is a genuine Taylor Made Products deck hinge, not a generic aftermarket substitute.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor Made Products","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48989667623131,"sku":"NAT-1205","price":15.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/nat-1205_lg__74135.1558116319.500.750.jpg?v=1785188192","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/taylor-made-products-1205-deck-hinge-side-mount-for-bimini-tops-chromed-zamak-sold-in-pairs","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
