Dzus Backing Plate Large 7/16 Stainless 10pk

The Dzus Backing Plate Large 7/16 Stainless 10pk is a precision-engineered body reinforcing component designed for quick-release fastener systems used in aircraft, aerospace, and tactical equipment applications. These backing plates distribute load across a wider surface area, preventing fastener pull-through on thin materials and ensuring secure, repeatable connections. Professionals in aviation maintenance, military logistics, and custom equipment assembly rely on Dzus backing plates to extend component lifespan and maintain structural integrity under vibration and dynamic stress.

Constructed from stainless steel, this backing plate measures 1.685 inches wide by 1.045 inches tall with a 1-3/4 inch diameter footprint and 0.15 inch rivet attachment depth, offering substantial reinforcement without excessive weight. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion in harsh environments, making it ideal for outdoor, marine, and saltwater-exposed installations where standard steel would degrade. The 7/16 inch sizing accommodates mid-range Dzus quick-release fasteners, and the set includes ten individual plates, enabling bulk repairs or new-build applications across multiple connection points.

This product is essential for technicians reinforcing composite panels, thin aluminum sheets, or fiberglass components where direct fastener attachment risks material failure. Installation involves riveting or fastening the backing plate to the underside of your work surface before attaching the corresponding Dzus quick-release fastener, creating a solid anchor point that prevents spinning and pull-out. Whether you're performing avionics panel maintenance, assembling tactical gear, or fabricating custom enclosures, the stainless construction and generous diameter make this backing plate suitable for both indoor workshops and field-deployed equipment where durability and corrosion resistance are non-negotiable.
