It's a coil spring with an integrated cable, 3\/8 inch in diameter and 8-5\/8 inches long, built to hold a lid open and keep it under control as it swings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStainless steel is the whole point here. Down in a bilge or up on deck, this part lives in salt spray and damp, and cheaper steel would streak and seize inside a season. This one holds up. The cable does double duty, it limits how far the hatch travels so a gust doesn't slam the lid all the way back and stress the hinge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt ships as a single piece, so if you're replacing a matched pair on a larger hatch, order two. Straightforward swap for a tired or rusted original, and a common size on plenty of production boats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel spring and cable, holds up to salt spray and damp bilges without rusting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch diameter, 8-5\/8 inch length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated cable limits hatch travel and holds the lid open\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually as a single piece, order two for a matched pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Sea-Dog reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eIs it really stainless steel?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eYes.
