Bennett A1115 Lower Hinge Pin

The Bennett A1115 Lower Hinge Pin is a precision replacement component designed for Bennett Marine trim tab actuator systems. If you've logged serious hours on the water, you know that trim tabs are critical to boat handling, stability, and fuel efficiency—and they rely on robust hinge hardware to perform reliably in saltwater and freshwater conditions alike. This lower hinge pin keeps your actuator assembly aligned and functioning smoothly, whether you're running in rough seas or shallow flats where precise trim control makes all the difference.

Built to Bennett Marine's exacting standards, the A1115 lower hinge pin is a straightforward but essential fastener that secures the lower portion of your trim tab actuator to the boat's transom bracket. Corrosion resistance is paramount in marine hardware, and this pin is engineered to withstand prolonged exposure to saltwater spray and the electrolytic stresses of a working boat hull. At just 0.1 lbs, it's a lightweight component that won't affect your rig's weight or balance, yet it carries the structural responsibility of keeping actuator geometry true—critical for preventing binding, excessive wear, and actuator lag that wastes fuel and compromises handling.

Any angler or boater running Bennett trim tabs should keep a spare A1115 lower hinge pin onboard for routine maintenance or field repair. Whether you're replacing worn hardware during seasonal service or addressing a pin that's loosened after years of use, this direct-fit replacement ensures your trim tab assembly continues to deliver the smooth, responsive control you depend on. Installation is straightforward—simply remove the existing pin and slide the new A1115 into place, torquing to manufacturer specifications. Verify compatibility with your specific Bennett Marine trim tab model before ordering.
