{"product_id":"whitecap-s-5056c-5-8-in-brass-baitwell-plug","title":"Whitecap S-5056C 5\/8 in Brass Baitwell Plug","description":"\u003cp class=\"nvn-hero\"\u003eThis is Whitecap's 5\/8 inch brass baitwell plug, the small part that keeps your livewell holding water when you want it and draining clean when you don't. Solid brass stands up to salt and spray far better than plastic, so it won't crack or seize on you. A simple, honest replacement for a plug that's gone missing or corroded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLose a baitwell plug over the side and your livewell won't hold a thing. It happens. They're small, they get knocked loose, and the old ones eventually corrode or round off. This Whitecap S-5056C is the straightforward fix. It's a 5\/8 inch brass plug sized to seal the drain on baitwells and livewells built for that opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy brass? Because it lives in wet, and often salty, conditions its whole life. Brass shrugs that off. It won't crack the way a cheap plastic plug will after a season in the sun, and it seats cleanly without seizing up on you. Keep a spare in the tackle bag and you'll never lose a day's bait to a missing plug.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhitecap has been making marine hardware since 1972, so this is a part built to fit and last. If your boat's baitwell or livewell uses a 5\/8 inch drain, this is the right size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid brass construction resists corrosion in salt and freshwater, so it won't crack or degrade the way plastic does\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch diameter, sized to seal a baitwell or livewell drain built for a 5\/8 inch opening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSimple drop-in replacement for a lost, corroded, or rounded-off factory plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWhitecap marine hardware, built by a manufacturer making boat parts since 1972\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 Whitecap 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\u003eWhat size is this baitwell plug?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's 5\/8 inch in diameter, sized to seal a baitwell or livewell drain built for a 5\/8 inch opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat's it made of?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eSolid brass.
