Whitecap Industries

<h3>Whitecap Industries: Engineering Excellence for the Water</h3><p><strong>Whitecap Industries</strong> has been one of the marine industry's most trusted names in hardware, fittings, and boat accessories since its founding in 1986. Headquartered in Piscataway, New Jersey, the company has built a reputation for delivering innovative, high-quality solutions to a wide range of customers — from major OEM boat builders and commercial yacht manufacturers to aftermarket boaters who simply want the best for their vessels.</p><h3>A Legacy of Manufacturing Versatility</h3><p>What sets Whitecap apart from many marine hardware brands is the sheer breadth of its in-house manufacturing capabilities. The company's competencies span casting, stamping, extrusion, rubber molding, injection molding, forging, plating, and teak woodworking — meaning Whitecap can engineer and deliver custom solutions that most suppliers simply cannot match. Whitecap is also an exclusive importer of premium, marine-grade, aged and kiln-dried teak wood, which forms the backbone of many of their most popular product lines.</p><p>Materials matter enormously in the marine environment, and Whitecap takes that seriously. Components are produced from marine-grade stainless steel, nylon, chrome-plated brass, and the brand's proprietary DURAPLEX duplex stainless steel — an alloy engineered to be twice the strength of standard 316 stainless steel and guaranteed never to rust, pit, or corrode. This commitment to material quality ensures every product holds up in both saltwater and freshwater conditions season after season.</p><h3>Products Built for Every Part of Your Boat</h3><p>Whitecap's catalog covers virtually every area of a vessel. One of the brand's flagship offerings is their line of <a href="/7650-whitecap-industries-swim-platforms-ladders-201027">Swim Platforms &amp; Ladders</a> — beautifully crafted teak and aluminum structures that make boarding and water access safe and stylish. Whether you need a transom ladder, an under-platform design, or a full outboard swim platform, Whitecap's engineering attention to detail is evident in every step and hinge point.</p><p>Below decks and throughout the cabin, Whitecap's <a href="/7650-whitecap-industries-door-latches-200339">Door Latches</a> are a go-to choice for builders who need reliable, corrosion-resistant closure hardware. From cam-action latches to stud catches, these components are built to provide secure and smooth operation on hatches, doors, and storage compartments in even the harshest marine conditions.</p><p>On deck, Whitecap also supplies quality <a href="/200419-flag-poles-staffs-mounts-whitecap-industries-7650">Flag Poles, Staffs &amp; Mounts</a> in materials like polished brass and teak — a finishing touch that brings nautical character and function together. Whether you're flying an ensign or a burgee, Whitecap's flag accessories are engineered for lasting performance and classic good looks.</p><h3>Trusted by OEMs, Builders, and Boaters</h3><p>Whitecap serves a diverse customer base, providing finished products to OEM builders, commercial yards, and aftermarket customers alike. The company offers custom packaging, private-label capabilities, and no minimum order quantities — making it just as practical for an individual boater as for a large production yard. Whitecap is also a proud member of the NMMA, NMDA, and NMRA, further underlining its standing within the professional marine industry.</p>

Price is great, easy to follow website

Sorting through part numbers is a bit of a pain - better organization would be great.

Ordered the Auto Ventshade Ventvisor Deflector 4 pc. (Model 94856) for my 2000 Toyota Camry XLE. Was easy to install with no tools, just use the included strong double sided adhesive tape. Instructions that came with it could've been more detailed on where exactly to install the ventshade as I had to remove them tediously, realizing I had to put them a little higher. Also, there seems to be an unsightly gap between the front and back windows. Works as designed. Satisfied with product. Fast shipping by Autoplicity.

Ordering and paying with amazon was pretty painless.

Super easy + best price on the web. Very pleased am I.
