Lenco Stainless Slide Bracket f/ Hatch Lifts

The Lenco Stainless Slide Bracket for Hatch Lifts is a critical emergency access component designed for marine vessels equipped with powered hatch systems. This stainless steel bracket provides manual override capability in the event of electrical or hydraulic power failure, allowing crew members to manually open the hatch up to 4 inches for pull-pin removal and emergency access to vessel systems.

Built from stainless steel for marine-grade corrosion resistance, this bracket is engineered to withstand the salt air and moisture exposure inherent to saltwater and coastal operations. The slide mechanism enables controlled manual operation without requiring power, making it an essential redundancy feature for any vessel relying on automated hatch systems. Installation includes all necessary attaching hardware, simplifying retrofit or replacement on existing installations. At 1.95 lbs and compact dimensions, it integrates seamlessly into engine room or cabin configurations without adding excessive weight or taking up valuable space.

This bracket is essential for commercial fishing vessels, offshore platforms, and any marine installation where hatch access cannot be compromised by system failure. Recreational boaters operating larger cabin cruisers or live-aboard vessels also rely on this type of manual override to ensure crew safety and system accessibility during emergencies. The part number 70381-001 identifies this as OEM-compatible hardware suitable for Lenco hatch lift systems and comparable marine hatch assemblies.

Marine hatch systems represent critical infrastructure on working vessels; having verified manual access capability protects both crew safety and mission continuity when electrical systems fail.
