Whitecap Teak Batten - 3"W

The Whitecap Teak Batten – 3"W is a marine-grade structural component designed for securing canvas, sunshade fabric, and other flexible covers on boats of all sizes. This batten is ideal for applications such as rigging Bimini tops, securing dodgers, or fastening canvas weatherproofing, providing the durability and reliability that serious boaters require.

Constructed from solid teak, this 3-inch-wide batten is resistant to salt-air corrosion and UV degradation, outperforming synthetic alternatives over time. Its full 60-inch length allows for flexible cutting to fit specific applications, making it suitable for various types of vessels, from center consoles to cruising sailboats and commercial fishing platforms. Teak's natural properties provide inherent water resistance, reducing the need for sealant coatings.

With its low maintenance profile and dimensional stability in both tropical and temperate climates, the Whitecap Teak Batten is a professional choice for restoration work and new builds alike. Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic carpentry skills or a marine technician, and its 3-inch width accommodates standard fastener spacing, making it compatible with common snap-together cover systems and traditional lacing hardware.
