Sea-Dog Brass Pad Eye Tie-Down Mount | 081270-1
Sea-Dog Brass Pad Eye Tie-Down Mount | 081270-1 — Product description
Sea-Dog makes this little brass pad eye for one job: giving you a solid tie-down point on deck. The 5/16 by 3/8 inch eye takes a line, a bungee, or a length of shock cord, and the brass shrugs off salt and spray. Sold as a single piece.
A pad eye is one of those small pieces of hardware you end up using all over the boat once you've got a few aboard. This one's solid brass, with a 5/16 by 3/8 inch eye, and it mounts flat to a deck, bulkhead, or transom with two fasteners. Run a line through it, clip a bungee to it, or use it as an anchor point for shock cord holding down a cooler or a hatch cover.
Brass is the reason to reach for this one. It won't rust, it handles salt and spray without complaint, and it keeps that warm finish that looks right on classic and wood boats. The eye is on the smaller side, so it's best for lighter tie-down duty rather than heavy load-bearing rigging. Think gear lashing, cover straps, and keeping loose items from sliding around underway.
It ships as a single piece, so grab the count you need for the job. Fasteners aren't included, so pick up hardware sized to your deck thickness.

Frequently asked questions
What's a pad eye used for?
It's a fixed anchor point. Fasten it to a deck or bulkhead and you've got a spot to run a line, clip a bungee, or lash down gear and covers.
What size is the eye?
5/16 by 3/8 inch. That's the clear opening you run a line, bungee, or shock cord through, so it's suited to lighter tie-down duty.
Does it come with mounting screws?
No, fasteners are sold separately. Pick stainless or bronze hardware sized to your deck thickness.
Is it sold as a single or a pair?
Single. Each order is one pad eye, so order the quantity you need for the job.
