Material advantages of stainless steel A4 (AISI 316)

Stainless steel A4 (also known as AISI 316 or V4A) contains molybdenum and therefore offers significantly higher corrosion resistance than standard stainless steel A2. This makes the deck fitting particularly suitable for:

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

Technical details

Eye width: 10 mm - The distance between the flaps of the eye.

Aug-Ø (eye diameter): 11 mm - The diameter of the opening for bolts or screws.

Wide version: Extra stable construction for higher loads on folding roofs.

Assembly and use

The deck fitting is attached to the deck using the tab. The eyelet is used to connect it to the canopy frame via a bolt or screw. The robust design ensures secure connections even under heavy loads.

• Deck mounting - attach the tab to the deck with screws
• Connect the convertible top frame - guide the bolt through the eye
• Secure - Fix with a cotter pin or retaining ring.
• Check - Ensure a secure fit and stability
