Wichard Webbing Eye strap - 5mm Diameter - 13/64" - 65mm Spacing - 2-9/16"

The Wichard Webbing Eye strap is a purpose-built marine fastening solution designed for secure attachment of webbing and strapping systems on vessels of all sizes. Whether you're rigging deck gear, securing fender lines, or installing safety harnesses aboard your boat, this webbing eye strap delivers the reliability that serious anglers and boaters demand. Manufactured to exacting French standards by Wichard Marine, a brand trusted worldwide for over 75 years, this strap handles the corrosive salt-water environment without compromise.

Constructed from drop-forged 316L stainless steel, the Wichard Webbing Eye strap resists rust and galvanic corrosion far better than mild steel or lower-grade stainless alternatives. The 5mm diameter shank provides substantial holding power, while the 13/64" webbing accommodation and 65mm spacing between mounting points allow secure integration with standard marine webbing systems. The 2-9/16" overall length positions the eye at ideal distances for cleating, lashing, and hardware connection, making installation straightforward on gunwales, cabin frames, or transom structures.

Fishing crews and cruising boaters benefit most from this hardware when building custom grab rails, reorganizing deck layouts, or replacing corroded original equipment. The robust construction handles shock loads and constant movement without loosening, a critical factor in rough seas or when winching heavy tackle. Installation requires through-bolting into solid backing or structural framing; ensure fastening locations can support the intended load, particularly on fiberglass hulls where backing plates are essential.
