Tie Down Engineering 86268 Adjustable Tandem Trailer Fender, 60 to 72 Inch, Silver Aluminum

The Tie Down Engineering 86268 is an adjustable tandem-axle trailer fender built to protect dual-axle boat trailers from road debris, spray, and thrown gravel. It is constructed from.080 aluminum Tread Brite for a durable, corrosion-resistant, brushed silver finish that holds up to marine and roadside conditions. The fender measures 9 inches wide by 16 inches high and adjusts across a 60 inch to 72 inch range, allowing it to accommodate almost all dual-axle trailer configurations rather than a single fixed track width. This adjustability means one fender covers a wide range of tandem-axle trailer setups, simplifying replacement without requiring an exact width match to the original equipment. It is designed as a universal-fit rear fender, and buyers should check their trailer's axle spacing and mounting hardware to confirm proper fit before installation. The lightweight aluminum construction keeps unsprung weight low compared to steel fenders while still standing up to years of towing use. This fender is sold individually and is intended for the regular (non-teardrop) tandem fender profile.
