<h3>About White Cap Industries (Whitecap Marine Products)</h3><p><strong>White Cap Industries</strong>, operating as Whitecap Marine Products, has been the builder's trusted choice for quality marine hardware and accessories since 1986. Headquartered in Piscataway, New Jersey, the company has spent nearly four decades earning its reputation as a leading supplier to OEM boat builders, commercial yacht manufacturers, and aftermarket marine customers worldwide.</p><p>What sets Whitecap apart is the remarkable breadth of its in-house manufacturing capabilities. <a href="/13091-white-cap-industries-inc">Whitecap Marine Products</a> handles everything from casting and stamping to extrusion, rubber molding, injection molding, forging, plating, and structural foam — all under one roof. This comprehensive engineering infrastructure allows the brand to deliver custom-designed solutions that meet the precise demands of professional builders, not just off-the-shelf hardware.</p><h3>A Wide Range of Marine Hardware &amp; Accessories</h3><p>Whitecap's catalog spans virtually every area of a vessel. Boaters and builders alike turn to the brand for deck and dock hardware including cleats, hinges, latches, handles, and rod holders. The brand's line of anchor parts and accessories — such as anchor rollers, chains, and mounts — is built from heavy-duty stainless steel designed to perform season after season in demanding marine environments.</p><p>One of Whitecap's most celebrated specialty lines is its <strong>teak wood products</strong>. From swim platforms and handrails to cockpit tables, drink holders, and director's chairs, the teak collection blends function with classic onboard style. These products are crafted with the same attention to detail that defines the brand's metal hardware lines.</p><p>For builders who need components that handle the harshest saltwater conditions, Whitecap offers marine-grade stainless steel, chrome-plated brass, and nylon construction across its hardware range.

  • Compressed Length: 5-1/2 inches
  • Rod Diameter: 8mm

  • P1 Force Rating: 20 pounds

Construction Features:

  • Heavy-duty steel body with heat-cured black nitrate paint for maximum corrosion protection
