Springfield 2-3/8 In Plug-In Seat Base | 3300750-1
Springfield 2-3/8 In Plug-In Seat Base | 3300750-1 — Product description
Springfield Marine's plug-in seat base is the 9 inch round aluminum plate that bolts to your deck and holds a standard 2-3/8 inch pedestal post. Non-threaded, so the post drops in and lifts back out when you want the deck clear. Satin finish that handles salt and spray.
The Springfield Marine plug-in seat base is the deck-side half of a boat seat pedestal setup. It's the 9 inch round aluminum plate that bolts to your deck and gives the post something solid to sit in. This one's cut for the standard 2-3/8 inch post, which is the size most Springfield pedestals run. So if you're replacing a worn-out base or building a new seat mount from scratch, it drops right into the system you already have.
The plug-in part matters. It's non-threaded, which means the post doesn't screw down into the base. It just drops in. That lets you lift the whole post and seat straight out when you want the deck clear, whether you're loading gear, washing down after a trip, or getting the boat ready to trailer. No tools. No threads to cross or gall up. Set the post back in and you're seated again in a second.
The base itself is satin-finished aluminum. Light, but it's not flimsy. That 9 inch round footprint spreads the seat load across a wider patch of deck than a small base would, which keeps the whole pedestal from rocking or working the mounting screws loose over a season of chop. On an aluminum jon boat, a center console, or a pontoon casting deck, it sits flat and stays where you put it.
Couple things worth knowing before you order. This is the base only. The post and the seat mount separately, so make sure the post you're running is a 2-3/8 inch non-threaded type to match this base. And because it's aluminum with a satin finish, it shrugs off salt and spray, but a freshwater rinse now and then keeps it looking sharp. Not sure this is the base your pedestal needs? Send us your current post diameter and we'll confirm the fit before you buy.

Frequently asked questions
What post size does this base fit?
It's built for a standard 2-3/8 inch diameter, non-threaded post. That's the most common Springfield pedestal size. Check that your post matches before ordering.
Is the post or seat included?
No. This is the base only, the plate that bolts to your deck. The post and the seat mount separately, so you'll want to match a 2-3/8 inch non-threaded post to it.
What does non-threaded plug-in mean?
The post doesn't screw into the base. It just drops in and seats. That means you can lift the whole post and seat straight out when you want the deck clear, then set it back in when you're ready to sit.
What's the base made of?
Satin-finished aluminum. It's light, holds up to salt and spray, and a freshwater rinse now and then keeps the finish looking good.
How does it mount to the deck?
The 9 inch round flange bolts down to a flat section of deck. A wider footprint like this spreads the load and helps keep the mounting screws from working loose over time.
Will it hold up in saltwater?
Yes. The aluminum and satin finish handle salt and spray fine. Give it a freshwater rinse after saltwater trips and it'll stay looking sharp.
