Backing Plate for Swivel D-Rings

The Backing Plate for Swivel D-Rings is an essential component for serious boaters looking to enhance their deck hardware. Ideal for rigging center consoles, securing tie-down points on trailers, or reinforcing anchor systems on larger vessels, this backing plate is designed to distribute load evenly across mounting surfaces. This prevents stress fractures and fastener pull-through, ensuring reliability during fishing and watersports activities.

Constructed from durable steel, this backing plate measures 6.25 x 0.8 x 8 inches and weighs 1.39 lbs. Its design accommodates the D-ring mechanism while working behind the mounting surface to multiply holding power and reduce localized stress on various decking materials. The steel construction is suitable for both saltwater and freshwater applications, ensuring longevity when properly maintained.

Anglers, boaters, and utility haulers will find this backing plate particularly beneficial when installing or upgrading tie-down systems, especially on vessels that experience frequent use or heavy loads. It pairs directly with Mac recessed swivel D-ring anchors, providing a reliable solution for securing gear and equipment. The natural finish allows for easy painting or coating to match your vessel's aesthetic while adding an extra layer of protection.
