OverviewNot all sailors know this: there are different grades of stainlesssteel and they offer different takes on the balance betweenstructural strength and corrosion resistance. Duplex is a class ofstainless steel, new to Harken’s pad-eye line-up. It offers increasedamounts of chromium in the alloy for enhanced corrosionresistance at very high relative strengths. All sailors should knowthis: Stainless does not mean maintenance free. Make sure toinspect structural stainless deck hardware regularly and clean andrestore the finish as needed.Specifications Specification Value A (in) 2 9/16 in A (mm) 65 mm B (in) 2 3/8 in B (mm) 61 mm Breaking load (kg) 6804 kg Breaking load (lb) 15000 lb C (in) 1 9/16 in C (mm) 39 mm D (in) 1 9/16 in D (mm) 39 mm E (in) 1 1/2 in E (mm) 38 mm F (in) 13/16 in F (mm) 21 mm G (in) 1 1/8 in G (mm) 28 mm Maximum working load (kg) 3402 kg Maximum working load (lb) 7500 lb Weight (g) 218 g Weight (oz) 7.7 oz FAQs Does it require special treatment of sharp edges before installation?All burrs should be removed and sharp edges broken with max 0.010 radius or chamfer.
