Tempress 57005 Reinforcement Mounting Plate for Elite Helm and ProBax Captain's Seats

The Tempress 57005 Reinforcement Mounting Plate is a bottom support plate designed for use with Tempress Elite helm seats and ProBax Captain's seats, and can also be used with any roto-molded style seat that requires additional support. Molded from high density polyethylene, the plate reinforces the base of the seat where it attaches to a standard 4-hole mount swivel base, spreading load across the seat bottom and reducing flex or stress cracking around the mounting points over time.

The plate measures 13 inches by 7-1/4 inches with a thickness of 7/16 inch, sized to sit beneath the seat base and align with the swivel mount pattern. It is compatible with a specific list of Tempress seat models, so buyers should confirm their seat's part number against the fitment list below before ordering. Mounting hardware is not included with this plate, so installers will need their own fasteners or hardware sourced separately for the seat and swivel base being installed.
