T-H Marine Rigging Hose & Flanges

T-H Marine Rigging Hose & Flanges: OEM-Trusted Protection for Your Outboard

When it comes to keeping your outboard's cables and wiring neatly routed and protected against the elements, few names carry more weight than T-H Marine. A family-owned manufacturer with roots going back to 1975, T-H Marine has earned a place on virtually every type of recreational boat built in the United States — and their rigging hose and flanges are a big reason why.

What T-H Marine Rigging Hose & Flanges Do

Outboard rigging involves routing control cables, electrical wiring, and fuel lines from the engine into the boat's hull. Without proper protection, those runs are exposed to UV radiation, water intrusion, dirt, and abrasion that can degrade cables and cause costly failures over time. T-H Marine's rigging hose and flange system addresses all of these vulnerabilities in one clean, purpose-built solution.

The rigging flange acts as the mechanical interface between the rigging hose coming from the engine and the boat transom or console. T-H Marine's flanges feature a molded polypropylene construction that is internally threaded to retain the rigging hose securely and simplify rigging adjustments. The back side of each flange is textured specifically to allow inverted mounting — a practical detail that gives installers greater flexibility during both new builds and retrofit projects.

The corrugated rigging hose itself is engineered for durability in the marine environment: it is flexible, kink-resistant, and designed to shield cables from dirt, abrasion, sun, and water. These qualities have made T-H Marine rigging hose the preferred choice for most OEM boat builders across the United States, appearing on bass boats, pontoon boats, center consoles, flats boats, and more.

Product Options and Configurations

T-H Marine offers rigging hose in multiple sizes — including 1.25", 2", and 2.5" diameters — and in colors such as black, white, and gray, so the installation can be matched to virtually any boat's aesthetic. Flanges are available in both black and chrome finishes. Complete kits pair a 2" rigging flange with 4 feet of rigging hose, providing everything needed for a typical outboard installation in a single package.

For more complex installations, T-H Marine also offers a Rigging Flange with Fuel Hose Port and Hose Union, which accommodates cables, electrical wiring, and a fuel primer bulb simultaneously. This split-design flange is engineered to comply with ABYC and NMMA specifications and can be installed on pre-rigged boats without cutting or disconnecting existing runs — a notable advantage for service and upgrade applications.

Why T-H Marine Stands Out in This Category

What sets T-H Marine apart is the combination of OEM credibility and aftermarket accessibility. Because these components are specified by leading boat manufacturers for new production builds, they represent a direct factory-quality replacement when it's time to refresh aging rigging. Whether you're a first-time boat owner replacing a cracked flange or a seasoned rigger wiring a custom build, T-H Marine's rigging components deliver a professional result without complexity.
