Threaded Mounting Point — Screw-Down Deck Socket - M5 / M6 / M8 / M10 - 316 Stainless Steel

Product Description

A mirror-polished 316 stainless base that turns any flat surface on board into a proper threaded fixing point — no access needed behind the panel. Screw it down once, then bolt on whatever you like and take it off again just as easily. Available M5, M6, M8 and M10.

Every boat has somewhere you'd like to fix something — and no way to get behind it.
Moulded headlinings. GRP locker sides. Cored decks. Hull liners you'd have to cut open to reach. The moment you want to add a light, a grab handle, a solar panel or a rod holder, you're stuck choosing between a self-tapper that will work loose, or a job that means dismantling half the interior.

This is the fix. Three countersunk screws hold the base flat to the surface; the machined boss in the centre gives you a clean, full-depth thread on top. Wind in a bolt, an eye bolt or a threaded accessory stud and you've got a secure, load-spread mounting point exactly where you want one.

Fit it once. Use it again and again.
Because the fixing is threaded rather than permanent, anything you mount can come off in seconds — and when it does, you're left with a low-profile stainless disc, not a row of holes. Cockpit tables, sunshade poles, dinghy chocks, camera arms, winter cover fittings, kayak cradles: all on for the season, all off again without touching the deck.

Made to live outside.
Machined from 316 (A4) marine-grade stainless and mirror-polished, these are built for permanent exposure to salt water and salt air — on deck, in the cockpit, on the transom or below in the bilge. The countersunk holes take standard raised or countersunk head screws, so the base sits flush and clean.

Kinder to the boat than a tapped hole.
GRP, plywood, foam core and thin aluminium will not hold a machine thread for long. The base plate spreads the load across three fixings and puts the thread into stainless steel where it belongs. And if a thread ever does get damaged, you replace a small fitting rather than repairing the structure.
