Tempress 44630 Cam Hatch, White, 13 x 17.25 x 1.5 Inches, Without Lock
The Tempress 44630 Cam Hatch is a white deck access hatch built from glass filled polypropylene for strength, durability, and water resistance. It is part of the Tempress access hatch line, designed for heavy traffic areas of a boat where people will walk or stand, and is well suited to dry storage compartments, bait or fish well access, and electrical or plumbing line access. This version does not include a lock.
The hatch uses a cam-style dog-down latch that compresses an integrated gasket with a quarter turn of the wrist, creating a weather tight seal. A patented integral hinge assembly allows the lid to be fully removed for easy access to the compartment below. The lid is beveled and skirted so it covers all mounting fasteners for a clean, finished look above or below deck.
Overall product size is 13 inches x 17.25 inches x 1.5 inches. The hatch requires a cutout measuring 8.625 inches x 12.625 inches, with an inside opening of 7 1/4 inches x 11 1/4 inches and an outside lid measurement of 10 3/4 inches x 15 1/8 inches. Installation requires 10 #12 pan head self-tapping screws. The hatch is made in the USA.
