Ocean Breeze Marine Speaker Spacer f/FUSION F882W - 8.8" Speakers - .50" - Black

The Ocean Breeze Marine Speaker Spacer for FUSION F882W 8.8" Speakers is a precision engineering solution designed to overcome critical depth constraints when mounting marine audio systems. This 0.50" black spacer ring bridges the gap between speaker mounting surfaces and equipment enclosures, allowing installers to deploy full-size 8.8" drivers in confined spaces where standard flush mounting is impossible. The spacer solves a problem that marine integrators encounter regularly: vessel infrastructure and retrofit constraints that don't accommodate direct speaker installation.

Specifications are engineered for exact FUSION F882W compatibility. The outer diameter of 9.75" (248 mm) matches the speaker ring footprint precisely, while the bolt hole diameter of 7.94" (202 mm) and mounting hole diameter of 7.36" (187 mm) ensure proper alignment and load distribution. The 0.50" thickness is the critical dimension—it provides adequate depth extension without introducing acoustic complications or structural instability. A 1/16" rounded edge on all perimeters prevents sharp edges that could damage speaker cones or wiring during installation. These tolerances are not arbitrary; they reflect the engineering specifications of FUSION's 8.8" driver architecture.

Marine audio installers, boat owners upgrading factory or aftermarket systems, and custom marine integration shops rely on spacer rings when dashboard geometry or console depth limitations prevent direct mounting. This is standard practice in offshore fishing vessels, recreational cruisers, and commercial marine applications where equipment compartments are tightly constrained. The black finish blends into most marine dash environments and resists corrosion in salt-air exposure when paired with properly sealed installation practices.

Speaker spacer rings are a category-standard solution across marine OEM and aftermarket audio. Proper spacer selection—matching model and thickness exactly—is essential for preventing driver damage, maintaining impedance characteristics, and ensuring secure mounting. This product is engineered specifically for the FUSION F882W platform and should not be substituted with generic spacers or alternative speaker models.
