Flush-Mount Hardware Delivers Safety & Aesthetic Advantages Over Standard Equipment
Standard hardware can be as unsightly as gel-coat scratches.
Standard hardware can be as unsightly as gel-coat scratches. For boaters concerned about preserving a sleek appearance, flush-mounted hardware maintains a boat's smooth and stylish lines. Unlike traditional equipment, the flush-mounted fittings rest flat along the deck or transom. When in use, the fixtures easily move or spring up, and return level when finished. The low-profile design leaves decks and other areas onboard clutter-free for other activities. Along with aesthetic appeal, flush-mounted hardware offers boaters safety advantages. Original hardware in an upright, fixed position creates a potential tripping hazard. With flush-mounted equipment, the possibility of an accident is minimized. There are no protruding parts or edges for boaters to worry about when not in use. Snagging lines or catching belongings on an upright cleat is a nuisance that can turn a fun day on the water into a frustration filled voyage. Secured flat against a surface, flush-mounted fixtures virtually eliminate the chances for lines or other things to get caught. By trading out standard equipment, boaters can customize their vessels to the most precise specifications. Line chocks, push-pull holders, hinges, cleats, bimini top fittings and navigation lights can all be flush-mounted. Complimenting today's stylish designs, many flush-mounted fittings are made of stainless steel. Corrosion resistant, stainless steel provides a long-service life in fresh or saltwater. Additionally, the material provides extra durability and beauty. Accon Marine is the originator of the innovative Pop-Up cleat and is the first in the industry to develop a Pop-Up LED navigation light. The company also manufactures quality ski tows, lift rings and tie downs. Editor's Note: Bernie Czipri is president of Accon Marine.
