2-3/4" 316 Stainless Steel Backing Plate for 6136 Ring Slam Latch with 5/8" Lip Depth
316 Stainless Steel
O.D. - 2-3/4"
Lip Depth - 5/8"
Made from marine-grade 316 stainless steel with a polished finish. It offers excellent corrosion resistance for both freshwater and saltwater environments.
This backing plate provides strong reinforcement and load distribution behind ring slam latches. The 5/8" lip depth is designed for thicker surface materials or applications requiring additional recess and seating depth, ensuring better embedment and a flush appearance on deeper panels.
It helps prevent fastener pull-through, cracking, or delamination on fiberglass, composite, or other panels while maintaining a secure and stable installation.
It supports the latch mechanism for reliable operation and a clean, professional appearance.
Suitable for use with Whitecap ring slam latch 6136 on boat hatches, doors, compartments, and access panels where durable reinforcement is required.
