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 reinforced end piece 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

Reinforced version

Double fastening: Unlike standard end pieces with only one setscrew, this reinforced version has two screws. This ensures significantly greater safety and stability, especially under high loads.

Increased material thickness: With a material thickness of 7 mm, this end piece offers maximum stability for demanding applications.

Technical details

ID (inner diameter): 6.5 mm - diameter of the eye for bolt or screw.

L (Length): 62 mm - Total length of the end piece.

S (thickness): 7 mm - Material thickness for high stability.

Pipe end cap with eye: Enables a clean finish and secure attachment to other components.

Assembly and use

The end piece is slid onto the pipe end and securely fastened with the two screws. The double fastening prevents the end piece from twisting or loosening. The eyelet allows connection to other fittings or fixing points via a bolt or screw.

• Slide on the end piece - Slide it onto the end of the pipe.
• Align - Place in the desired position
• Secure - Tighten with both screws
• Connect - guide bolt through eye
