Fulton Performance Tongue Jacks

Fulton Performance Tongue Jacks: Built for the Demands of Real Trailering

Fulton Performance has been one of the most trusted names in trailer hardware for well over a century. Founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1911, Fulton began manufacturing its own parts and accessories in 1913, and in 1981 acquired the Morris Midwest screw jack line — laying the groundwork for a complete lineup of marine, recreational, and utility jacks that trailers enthusiasts rely on today. When it comes to tongue jacks, Fulton brings that same deep engineering heritage to every product they ship.

Why Fulton Tongue Jacks Stand Out

Fulton's tongue jacks are purpose-built for the real world — salt spray, boat ramps, muddy ramps, and everything in between. The brand's signature feature is its patented bolt-thru swivel mount system (U.S. Patent 6,302,381), which uses 3-D formed heavy-gauge steel stampings and a proprietary bushing material to deliver a mount with minimal deflection and maximum load support. Whether you're setting up at a crowded marina or hitching a utility trailer in the rain, this engineering detail means the jack holds firm and operates smoothly under load.

Corrosion resistance is another area where Fulton tongue jacks distinguish themselves. Many models feature an industry-leading zinc finish with a 600-hour salt spray rating, making them a natural fit for marine environments where lesser hardware corrodes quickly. Some Fulton jacks in this category are backed by a 5-year manufacturer warranty, underscoring the brand's confidence in long-term durability.

Key Product Lines & Features

Fulton offers a range of tongue jack configurations to suit different trailer weights and use cases:

• XLT™ Series: Time-tested and application-proven, the XLT line is designed for both marine and utility trailers. These jacks use the patented bolt-thru swivel mount and feature patented inner and outer tube bushings for a tight fit and reduced tube drag. The XLT Power variant adds a spring-loaded pull pin with 22 inches of total travel.
• Pro Series: Widely regarded as best-in-class for light- to medium-duty marine and utility trailers, the Pro Series delivers full-featured performance at an accessible price point. Bolt-on installation with all mounting hardware included makes setup straightforward.
• F2® Series: The top of the Fulton lineup features the industry's only extruded aluminum jack with an anodized finish, representing the ultimate in corrosion resistance for serious marine applications.
• XPD Series: Dual-wheel swivel jacks offering up to 1,500 lb. lift capacity with 12-inch travel, designed specifically for heavier marine trailers and fitting frames up to 3" x 5".

Mounting Flexibility & Fit

Fulton tongue jacks are engineered to fit trailer frames up to 3" x 5" and are available in both bolt-on and weld-on configurations. Bolt-on models include all necessary mounting hardware right in the box. For weld-on applications, Fulton offers two mount styles compatible with both 1/2" and 3/8" pull pin configurations. The sidewind crank design is compatible with both round and square tubes, giving installers maximum flexibility across trailer types.

With lift capacities ranging from 1,000 lbs. to 5,000 lbs. across the lineup, Fulton tongue jacks scale from small fishing boat trailers all the way up to heavy pontoon and bowrider rigs.
