Makefast adjusting end plugs have been developed to make installation of a sprayhood easier. No boat is uniform, the decks are not symmetrical surfaces so this creates all sorts of problems for the fitter.
Even the most careful maker will have to adjust the positions of the end plugs on site to make them fit deck fixings. In the past this often meant removing the plug and cutting the tube. Now all it means is unscrewing the adjuster slightly or changing the adjuster for a different size.
No more on site tube cutting and perfect for fine adjustments when tensioning the frame and fabric!
For the cover maker this means that most of the work can be completed in the workshop before going to the boat, safe in the knowledge that small adjustments can be easily made on site without having to cut metal.
Adjustable end plugs are available with a right or left handed thread to allow the creation of adjustable struts if required.
When an adjustable strut is in position in the frame structure, fine tensioning can be achieved by simply rotating the strut tube - a simple and effective solution to ongoing tensioning adjustment.
