Bimini Top Fittings for 7/8 Inch Tubing

These external eye ends connect 7/8 inch OD round tubing on bimini top frames. The pack contains twelve stainless steel 316 pieces in an antique silver finish. They replace plastic or broken fittings on boats, kayaks, canoes and yachts. No drilling or welding is required for installation.

Limits of Screw-Fastened Jaw Slides

Each fitting uses a single 1/4 inch screw to clamp the inserted pole. The connection relies on friction and screw tension rather than a permanent joint. Vibration or heavy loads can loosen the screw over time. Regular inspection and re-tightening are necessary to maintain a secure hold.

Marine Grade 316 Stainless Steel Construction

The body is cast from stainless steel 316 for corrosion and rust resistance in saltwater environments. This alloy withstands prolonged exposure better than standard grades. The polished antique silver surface adds weather resistance. Buyers needing a different tube diameter or a welded permanent joint cannot use these fittings.

Questions about this item

How many eye ends come in the 12 pack and are they sold as individual pieces or pre-assembled pairs?

The box contains 12 individual external eye ends; the supplier lists the selling unit as 2 count, so they are packaged as six ready-to-use pairs for a bimini top frame.

What does the 7/8 inch tube size mean when I fit these to my bimini frame?

Each eye end has a 7/8 inch inside diameter and approximately 1 inch outside diameter, so it slides over 7/8 inch OD round tubing and is secured with the included 1/4 inch screw.

Are the UNC threads on these eye ends compatible with standard bimini top jaw slides and screws?

Yes, the fittings use UNC threads and a 1/4 inch screw per eye end, which matches the common hardware used on bimini top jaw slides for 7/8 inch tubing.
