Material advantage of stainless steel AISI 316 (A4)

AISI 316 stainless steel (also known as A4 or V4A) contains molybdenum and therefore offers significantly higher corrosion resistance than standard stainless steel. This makes the convertible top fitting with winch mount particularly suitable for:

• Continuous saltwater contact
• Aggressive marine environments
• Long-term outdoor applications without maintenance
• Professional boat and yacht equipment
• Areas with frequent movement and stress

Special winch mount

Integrated crank bracket: The fitting features a special mount for the winch crank. This allows for a space-saving combination of convertible top attachment and crank bracket.

Space-saving: Especially on small decks, space is precious. This fitting combines two functions in one component and saves valuable deck space.

Practical: The winch handle is always within easy reach on the convertible top fitting - ideal for quick access.

How it works

Dual function: The fitting serves simultaneously as a fastening for the convertible top frame and as a holder for the winch crank.

Convertible top attachment: The convertible top frame is attached with a 6mm screw, just like a standard fitting.

Crank mount: The winch crank can be stored in the integrated mount and is always readily available.

Assembly and use

The convertible top fitting is attached to the deck. The convertible top frame is secured with a 6mm screw. The winch handle can be stored in the integrated holder.

• Deck mounting - attach the fitting to the deck with screws.
• Install the convertible top frame - insert the tube into the holder.
