Whitecap 3516BP 1-Inch Square Nylon Eye End
Whitecap 3516BP 1-Inch Square Nylon Eye End — Product description
The Whitecap 3516BP is a black nylon eye end built to seat inside 1-inch square tubing. It's a simple, corrosion-proof fitting that finishes off the end of a tube with a molded eye for running a line or fastener. Handy to keep a couple in the parts bin.
If you've worked on square-tube frames, you know the little fittings are what hold the whole thing together. The Whitecap 3516BP is one of those. It's a black nylon eye end sized for 1-inch square tubing, and it slides inside the tube to finish off the end with a molded eye you can run a line or fastener through.
Nylon is the right material here. It won't rust, it shrugs off salt spray, and it won't chew up the tube the way a metal fitting can. The square profile keeps it from spinning once it's seated, so it stays put. We like these for canvas and frame work where you want a tidy, snag-free end instead of a raw cut tube.
It's a small part, so grab a couple of spares while you're at it. Swapping out a cracked or missing eye end takes about a minute, and having one aboard beats a trip back to the dock.
